Used 1998 Chevrolet Lumina for Sale near Hot Springs National Park, AR

Incredibly reliable, never had any problems with her. In 9 years, the only thing I have had to do for her was have her EKG valve checked out. That was it. Seats are incredibly comfortable. I have been able to take trips of 600+ miles without having to stop and stretch my back out. Also, the back seat is very comfortable for sleeping if you can't make it home. Enough power to get me where I need to go, while still returning 29-32 miles per gallon. I maxxed out at 537 miles on one tank of gas, but then I had to push it the last half mile to the gas station.

Fun to drive in city, long distance can get boring Acceleration is amazing on this car, whether its local speeds, or freeway speeds,the torque curve is very reliable for passing that slow car, or that trailer. Only interior noise is from the exhaust, and the serpentine belt No major repairs, mostly DIY's,

Luminas are surprisingly fun to drive. Acceleration with a 3.1 V6 is nothing to sneeze at, but my dad's 3.8 V6 Buick will smoke this car. Braking is excellent with ABS, e-brake has to be released with foot. Handles amazingly for a 4 door family sedan. Top speed is pretty good, hit 104 once. The belts on my engine make a ringing noise while it warms up because of a poorly designed spring tensioning system. It's a tough car, I have hit a couple snowbanks and scuffed up a guardrail, and each time the car was able to drive away. That being said, replacement body parts are reasonable and Luminas are very common, so easy to find parts cars. Kind of typical 90s exterior styling, with some unique grooves in the hood and sides and bold looking taillights. I've gotten 22-26 mpg with this car, pretty good for a midsize sedan. Only time it's been in the shop (other than body work) was to replace fuel filler neck.

Performance: Acceleration is ok, breaking is great, handles ok Build: built well and very reliable. Best car to drive in the winter. Appearence: factory styling and interior are great. Cost of ownership: gas mileage is awsome when it runs good. Very reliable car. No major repairs other than regular maintenance. Gets between 25 and 30mpg hwy or about 350-400mi per tank. Fun: It's ok. Not as fun as my trans am.

Although the outside looked very plain vanilla, inside it was very plush and comfortable. The 3.8 V-6 ran great and it was a surprisingly fast car. This was the first "over powered FWD" car I owned and it took quite a bit of getting used to. Under very hard acceleration it was hard to control. The sunroof was a nice feature. The LTZ package included a handling package which was great.
