1990 Used Chevrolet Lumina 4 Dr Euro Sedan
My mom's old car. The 3.1 liter V-6 only had 135 hp, but it had plenty of immediately available torque so it felt more powerful than that, and the steering and brakes also had a satisfying sporty feel to them, and the engine sounded great too. And one time on a long road trip, it got up to 30 miles per gallon at least once. It had its problems from time to time, but we kept it until it had 200,000 miles. Interior had plenty of room. The main thing I didn't like about it is the seat belt rubbed against my neck.
Pros —
Wonderful sporty feel and engine sound, surprisingly good gas mileage on highway.
Cons —
Scared us one time when the throttle cable stuck and it accelerated uncontrollably. Seat belt rubs uncomfortably against shorter drivers' necks. Front wheel drive.

| “Not Too Shabby” Reviewing:
1990 Used Chevrolet Lumina 4 Dr Euro Sedan
It was my first car, so I had to love it, Got it for free, it was missing various parts, like the grill, a door panel, but it was still a very good car. Can't remember the performance of the car, but there was enough to get me ticket for speeding.
Pros —
3.1L engine, very common, so easy to find parts for it. Lots of room in the back seat.
Cons —
Bit of a loud car, Mufflers tend to go quickly in them.

we bought our lumina van used. the van was in over all good shape and taken care of. i fell in love the first time i drove this vehicle. it handled so smoothly. i am a short small woman and it puts you right there,with the over large windshield, to see everything clearly. |
| “Lumina Van Has Served Me Well.” Last night I hit a big deer with my 1990 Lumina APV van. Sob. Love that van. It has always run well. What's not to like about driving a 16 year old car that always starts. I mean we've had our little problems over the years, but we're way out ahead. Believe it or not, I still have collision on it. The hood is cracked and has little tufts of fur coming out of it. Maybe a few Grateful Dead stickers will cover them up. Anyhoo, probably won't get squat for it. I'm so sad. This has been a great vehicle to move our daughter in and out of college every year. I was hoping to get 2 more years out of it, then throw a party! They just don't make 'em like they used to. |
