1992 Chevrolet Lumina Euro review from North America
"Strong, great sounding fast car. Been proven to do a buck-twenty"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust system rusted around 120,000 miles.
Oil pressure sensor blew out at 160,000 miles.
Keep getting an ignition short.
On 3rd alternator.
Main belt wore out soon after getting the car (just wear and tear).
General comments?
Great horsepower and torque.
Great car for tweaking with engine and exhaust upgrades.
Nice throttle sound with a performance "fart can" on it.
Getting an electric turbo system, which I calculated to give me 25 to 30 more horse power, making my Lumina about 300 horsepower with the cold air intake and performance exhaust.
Great handling
Great street racing car (beat a Subaru STi, fox body Mustang, Chevy Cavalier, Pontiac Sunfire, and a Mazda RX-7)
Great car overall. Still needs a little work here and there; just normal maintenance.
