2000 Chevrolet Lumina LX from North America - Comments

The trip meter, doesn't measure mileage correctly, about (.6) miles per every 1 mile on the odometer.

I have had nothing else go wrong with the car yet, it has been a very comfortable reliable economical vehicle.

I driven the car about 5000 miles since I've owned it, and averaged about 31.4mpg combined city and highway driving.

The engine is so quiet, that the heater fan on speed 2, will keep me from hearing it while it's running.

For about $200.00 KYB shocks improve the ride considerably.

It has factory anti-theft, key-less door and trunk; power windows and mirrors.

I'm very happy with the overall value.

That would be because your trip meter is measuring kilometers, not miles. not surprising, seeing as Luminas tend to be re-badged Holden Commodores, made in Australia.

I'm assuming you mean LS, not LX, which would in fact be a Commodore Executive.

Actually, Sorry, US lumina's are most likely Opel Omega's. middle east lumina's are commodores, however.

So my wife's Lumina is an Aussie car built in Canada and shipped to the US??

No, the United States/ Canada /Mexico version are built in Canada, and are purely American "W" body cars.

Not sure about that, but they are built in canada.

So that would explain the.6 mile of every real mile your traveling. They prolly forgot to adjust it to america miles that's all.

Personally I would like to ship a middle east lumina here to the usa...I saw some pics of that lumina and it looks like a sports car very stylish! Almost like a bigger 2004 honda cicivic 2 door hehe.
