Formerly optional equipment like a 3800 V6, performance-oriented tires and 16-inch machine-faced aluminum wheels are now standard on LTZ. Braking and cornering abilities are not extraordinary for the class, but the LTZ nonetheless keeps itself planted to terra firma with little fanfare. Still, the numbers are there, and the Lumina LTZ is just as nimble as upscale rivals from Chrysler and Ford. Even more amazing, the Lumina performs well in LTZ trim, although poor brake pedal feel and vague, disconnected steering really doesn't transmit any inkling of performance capability. The exterior shape is modern and, dare we say, attractive. A vast improvement over the first-generation model, the current Lumina offers an ergonomically correct, straightforward dashboard. These days, a different Lumina prowls Chevy showrooms. Amazingly, the Lumina went on to become a bestseller, due in part to strong fleet sales. When the Lumina hit the streets for the 1990 model year, he couldn't help but laugh every time one passed him on the street. Few showgoers even seemed to notice the silly silver Luminas as he inspected the angular styling, all the while wondering if GM had missed the boat on Ford's success with the Taurus. The 1990 Chevrolet Lumina was displayed at the show in coupe and sedan form, and this young man thought the vehicle was some kind of funky, ill-conceived concept car, like those oddly shaped safetymobiles created during the 1970s. While in college, one of our staffers attended the 1989 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Michigan.
