  Still going strong - 1991 Chevrolet Lumina
  By 92bravo - January 17 - 4:09 pm

  I have owned this car for 16 years. With regular maintenance, it has held up very well. I had to replace the infamous manifold gasket in 1998. The rear calipers, the water pump and the power steering pump. It gets excellent gas mileage. One tap of the gas and shes gone. The lawyers cheated the consumers on the brake repair settlement because they had no idea that these cars would still be around 18 years later. A great car overall. GM should return to this quality of vehicle.

  Would buy another - 1991 Chevrolet Lumina
  By George - February 7 - 7:27 pm

  I bought this for $300 from a junkyard, who sold cars as trade-ins for other cars. Bought it with a broken engine mount, and after a 1200 mile trip the entire suspension is destroyed, but thats because of the normal wear and tear. This is still going strong at 179k miles, and I would rather pay to have this entire car fixed than actually buy another one. Even if I dont, im keeping the body to toss a 305 in, just to take it to the strip, thats how much i love this car!

  My first car is a dream come true - 1991 Chevrolet Lumina
  By Mikey likes it - July 10 - 2:00 am

  I pulled $2000 together and purchased a torch red 1991 Chevy Lumina Z34. For a car 12 years old and with some 134K miles on it, it still performs with more stamina than I wouldve ever expected of it, and its stylish good looks turn my familys/friends/co- workers heads in a way that makes me think I got the better end of the deal. But I didnt just buy it for those amicable qualities--I was looking for reliability. Something to get me to school, work, and then back home when the day was through (did I mention I live in Minnesota where we have below freezing weather 3 months of the year?) I definately got that, too.

  Lumina: sporty and functional - 1991 Chevrolet Lumina
  By Brian H. - February 27 - 2:00 am

  I have had this car for almost 4 years now. I love it as much as the day I bought it. It is fast, comfortable, has an awesome loud exhaust sound, and a great stereo. It has had a few minor problems like fuel pressure regulator, TCC solenoid, and spark plug wires. Other than that, it has been close to perfect. Great brakes, contrary to what some say. Never touched them in four years, and they dont make a sound or hesitation. Very roomy car, mine fits six nicely.

  Good Car - 12 years later - 1991 Chevrolet Lumina
  By CJStudentUNC - September 24 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car a month ago to replace my Pontiac Bonneville which was falling apart. I still cannot believe what a great deal I got. I paid $2K for it (+ tax) and its in great mechanical shape. The engine is clean and it runs beautifully. The only problems with it are some minor hail damage and a problem with a joint in the front passenger steering assembly ($150 to fix). I have already driven the car over 1500 miles. It runs great in town and is very comfortable on the highway. The 3.1L engine runs smooth and the gears get as much performance as they can out of its 140hp. I highly recommend this model if you can find one in good condition.

  Not your ordinary lumina... - 1991 Chevrolet Lumina
  By drumchum - August 9 - 2:00 am

  I paid $1,000 for this car this spring (still worth around 2,900.. good deal huh?). When I first got it, my friends did not know what kind of car it was. When i told them it was a lumina, they couldnt believe it. And with the 3.4 200 horse V-6 its not much short of a Camaro. Overall. a good car.

  OK car, bad brakes - 1991 Chevrolet Lumina
  By Go Bucks! - April 23 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car 3 years ago and have had several problems. First, the rear brakes have had to be fixed numerous times, and still arent right. But thats common for this car. I had to replace radiator when power steering pump blew up. It had a coolant system leak twice, had to replace intake manifold, and replace fuel pump and lines all in 3 years. But handles great with the 3.1L, has great visibility, and the AC and heating systems are the best Ive ever experienced. AC will freeze you to death in 2 minutes!

  1991 Chevy Lumina - 1991 Chevrolet Lumina
  By Sarah - April 6 - 2:00 am

  My mother bought the vehicle almost new in 1992 and sold it to me when I moved out of state. It has been an excellent car. We never had any major problems until the car hit 100K, and at that point the shocks, struts, spark plug wires all had to be replaced. The gas gage stopped working. The hood also started to rust a little, and the paint started to peel in the back. However, weve never had any mechanical problems. The engine has never had to be repaired and Ive never been leary about it breaking down on long trips. It has been a great car.

  not a bad ride for the money - 1991 Chevrolet Lumina
  By jmar - April 3 - 2:00 am

  I just bought my 91 Lumina Euro sedan w/ the sport package. I pretty much just use it to get to work and it seems to be a decent buy so far. It has a nice ride, is roomy enough and has plenty of torque. Some negatives, the build quality is not all that great. The interior door panels feel like they will come off any day now. It is loud from the exhaust and also road/wind noise is a bit excessive. I have read that the rear brakes should be checked often and that the charging system is weak. Overall, this is a good car that you wont be embarrased to drive and can actually be fun to drive if you dont mind some fairly minor quality issues.
