The Chevy Lumina would be the perfect illustrationfor the "car" entry in an encyclopedia. Forthright and foursquare,
the standard Lumina has all of the basics and none of the frills. It is
sturdy, reliable, roomy, and inexpensive. It scores near the top of the
charts in crashworthiness and at the bottom in theft rates.
With traits like those, you won't be surprised to learn that the Lumina
gets little respect from car buffs. Neither will you be surprised to learn
that the Lumina was among the top ten in sales last year. A good honest
car at a good honest price will always have a market.
But another thing that never fades away is the desire of engineers to
add performance. This year, Lumina engineers pieced together the new Lumina
LTZ, a high-powered sporty edition for buyers who need the room of a Lumina
but yearn for a little more verve. Next Page
