Just curious. What kind of gas mileage do you get with your Lumina? It blows my mind we have a 1993 Lumina 3.1 V-6 with 237,000 miles on it & on the road it get 27.5 MPG @ 70 MPH. The worst we have got is 20 MPG. My wife commutes 90 miles/day where she has to climb a 6% grade for 12 miles & still can get 24.5 MPG on an average, that is city & highway.
What gets me is to get 35 MPG you have to buy a compact lunch box car for $15,000+. Yet to buy a Lumina is cheap, they are midsize comfortable to drive handle well, brake well, & seem to run forever, or they don't run at all, seems no in between with them, either real good or junk.

i drive 48 miles one way to work every day. at 75 mph average i get about 25 mpg. i drive very hard, probably shouldnt. but i didnt put all this time/blood/money into a fast car to NOT drive it fast...
i love the sound of the intake mixed with the flowmasters. it compells me to drop the throttle and scare the lil children. pbbbt
before someone tags in a comment about safety: i did some stunt work when i lived in NY for a couple years. i know about safety and i know how much and what my cars can do. and anyway, i hate my neighbors. let them step out into the street. :naughty:

My '93 Eurosport @70, 33+ mpg, '91(standard package)@60, 33+mpg.

I have a 3.1L 96 lumina with 140k and still get around 28mpg mostly highway @70mph. That is in the summer but in the winter it drops down to around 24-25mpg depending how long it takes to defrost the car lol. I love my lumina.... well except for the white paint......

I have a 1996, 3.1L, 140K miles. I drive 75 miles round trip every day, and I get 25-26 summer, 22-24 winter. However, that is with about a 5 mile strip both directions of stop and go hell.

My 95 APV gets about 22MPG after gaskets and valve job a year and a half ago, thanks for the help from this forum. Haven't been here much lately cause I have been on the Jeep forums and getting 13 MPG but still love the Jeep anyway. Lumina is now the back up vehicle and light hauler.

2000 Lumina, 110K miles.

Interstate 70 mph (w/cruise on) = 34 mpg
City = 24 mpg

My average mileage is 27 mpg and I consider this really good since most of my driving consists of a weekly commute over mountainous terrain to get to an environment where city driving conditions are the norm.

Why does a 2-door Speck only get 35 mpg these days when 20 years ago you could get 54 mpg out of a Geo Metro? I'll take the Lumina over the Speck.

I pull a sweet 35mpg highway, average 70-75mph. City isn't that great, about 20mpg. But I've been known to drive my car like I stole it, so that could be a major factor in the low city mileage.

My 1991 Cutlass got 28mpg highway, not to shabby for a 15 year old car.
