Yeah I know..!!
:o i know, i live in the UAE, and this car is a beast. I've seen this sedan smoke camaros (V6 of course) and race head to head with z28s. Personally i like this car, (hell it test drived it once), but the only thing i diss about it is that the traction control limites the fun... A LOT. this car does not do burns ( i know i've seen it do burnouts in oman-hp, but u have to get the shit out the engine to do that, while a z28 would naturally do it). anyhow the car is pretty cool, and damn cheap, and long live the Lt1s...............................

hey guys
im new here im lebanese and live in the UAE (Dubai)
lets get down to business
Chevrolet Lumina SS: i love this car with its 325bhp 5.7L V8 engine !
its simply amazing
take it in black, with black tinted windows, lower it down, large wheels and write "SS" in red at the back and it will be perfect
wish i could have one !

but now Lumina SS is replaced by the Lumina S 
same body but with 16 inch alloys (instead of 17inch) and a V6 215bhp that is on the LS & LTZ models

for your information, those cars are actually built here in Australia, and exported to the Middle East. Here they are sold as Holden Commodores (most popular car sold here, just released a new model a couple of months back), and the engines available are the 3.8L Buick V6 and the LS1. Of course, they are RWD, the only way a large car should be

No...you cannot import them....not cheaply anyway. It would cost upwards of 40 to 50,000

Re: 2002 Lumina SS
GM's been at in the Middle East, with the Holden built Chevy Caprice & Luminas for a bit now. If I'm not mistaken, the Monaro (which is about to hit the streets in North America as the Pontiac GTO) will also be badged as a Chevrolet Lumina Coupe and sold in certain markets...though not in the States...yet.... http://www.popularmechanics.com/auto...th/print.phtml
