  • Quick need your input on Chevy Lumina-ASAP

    Since my pick up is giving me more problem I'm thinking of buying a used 2001 Chevy Lumina with 49k on the meter as my daily beater.

    I'm checking it out tomorrow at this dealer.

    I want to stick with GM--is this a good car?

    1998 Firebird . 1989 Firebird XS . 1986 Fiero GT

      I had a 97 Lumina as my first car. It had the 3.1 in it...160 HP...decent for stop & go acceleration, but not enough passing power for the highway. Of course, the suspension is very soft and there's generous amounts of body roll. I always though the brakes could've been better; standard front discs and rear drums. They just didn't seem (big) enough for the car. I dunno if if got discs all around since 1997 or not. My car didn't have ABS either. But, gas mileage is decent for V6 and it's pretty big. It feels cheap...well...because it is cheap. So, as a daily beater, I'd say it's about average...not the best car, but it will do the job.
      Yes, I know \"Artic\" should be spelled \"Arctic\". Can any of the mods change this?
