1992 Chevrolet Lumina Z-34 review from North America
"Sporty and Practical"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The timing belt broke at 100,000 miles. The head gasket blew at about the same time. A rather expensive repair.
An O-Ring in the engine went at 110,000 miles. That was extremely expensive to fix.
General comments?
This car gives you all the power and handling you could want from a performance sedan. The acceleration and top speed are very impressive considering the weight, and the car just looks great.
However, It get terrible gas mileage for a V-6.
