Typical heavy domestic car ride not bad though. Roomy. Typical Chevy interior, rattles too much cheap plastic. Not solid but competent ride. Good engine (3.1 V6), good acceleration.

My dad bought this car for me in high school and I have had the best times in it. It has an awesome V6 engine that beats all the little Ford Escorts on the freeway. Not very pretty to look at, especially the front, but it has a nice red color that looks great in the sunlight. The only problem I'd say is the rear right brake, which tends to rub against the wheel on long long road trips and cause a stink. The brakes aren't as reactive as many cars, but they do work fine. The interior is hideous (the ceiling is falling in and there are many stains on the back floor), but the upside to the interior is that it is very roomy so if you're transporting tall people they can stretch out their legs.

Not Bad

My family purchased the car used in 1994. Since then, the Lumina has been a pretty good car. It now has around 75000 miles. The 3.1 engine is still strong. The speedometer only goes to 85, but it can probably do 105-110. We have recently had to replace: struts, a computer chip, part of the torque converter, etc. The drivers seatbelt recently broke, but I was amazed to hear that it would be under warranty. I really like the car because of its dependability.

PREPARE FOR REPAIRS

This veh drives smooth, when it wants to. From my experience if it's not one thing it's another. So far I've probably invested over 2.5k in repairs here and there. If you're buying this vehicle used make sure that the previous owners were kind to it. Any small lack of maintenance will really affect it's performance. I've had problems with the power windows, radiator core, cooling system, a bunch of electrical problems. It's kinda gotten to a point where I expect it to leave me stranded any day now. It was an expensive "in the meantime" car.
