Justin Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 I was at the local Chevy dealer picking up a gasket for the girlfriend's '03 Impala and saw a pretty shiny Lumina sitting out front. I'll let the pics speak for themselves. Original everything, whitewall Firestones, Lumina mudflaps, the paint was like new. Cool car, I have a friend checking to see how much it sold for. Quote
Brian P Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 it's ALWAYS base model Luminas I see with low mileage and in good shape. Quote
kevinz Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 I would shat myself if that was a 550-mile Z34 Quote
5speedz34 Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 how much did they want for it He said he has a friend checking. No shit on the base Lumina's. I wonder who the hell bought this and then parked it. Quote
Euro Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 No shit on the base Lumina's. I wonder who the hell bought this and then parked it. Yeah, i'd love to hear this story!!! Quote
Euro Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 I think there should be a thread somewhere that we can link all extreme low mileaged w-bodies. Quote
Addicted2bass Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 it's ALWAYS base model Luminas I see with low mileage and in good shape. x2. They always have those ugly as shit hubcaps to. 550 miles is ridiculous, id love to hear the story behind that one. Quote
runt Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 I'd rock that. Old school. like my granny. Quote
LuminaPower92 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Posted June 17, 2009 I bought my car just like that, but with more miles of course. Hubcaps and Luggage rack. Quote
3pt1lumina Posted June 17, 2009 Report Posted June 17, 2009 I hate the luggage racks on these cars. How in the world an almost 20 year old car only end up with 550 miles on it I'd love to know. Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Posted June 17, 2009 Thats amazing. A car like that with such low mileage. Hope the new owner takes damn good care of it. Base or not. Quote
9lumina6 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Posted June 17, 2009 Im more than willing to bet that some elderly person bought it back in 1990 and got very sick not too much after that and it probably sat in a garage at a family member's house for 18-19 years. Thats the most practical thing i could think of. I wonder how all the vacuum lines are on that car though from all the sitting. Reguardless.....I'd rock it. Quote
mra32 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Posted June 17, 2009 I bought my car just like that, but with more miles of course. Hubcaps and Luggage rack. me too Quote
Lumineer Posted June 17, 2009 Report Posted June 17, 2009 Same lumina that mine was, only with a different grill since it's an older year. I later had replaced the hub caps with nicer ones, and removed the luggage rack, only to leave ugly holes. But that is a hot Lumina!! I want!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
supreme_style21 Posted June 18, 2009 Report Posted June 18, 2009 Holy shit! I was thru there last week, didn't see that thing. I bet Rydells wanted 8k for it.. bastards. Quote
SrMichi Posted June 18, 2009 Report Posted June 18, 2009 God dam and i though my lumina had low mileage when i got it Quote
Justin Posted June 24, 2009 Author Report Posted June 24, 2009 Found out a little more info on the car. The dealership bought it from whoever was getting rid of it, they didn't trade it for anything, so I'm thinking elderly/estate. The car sat on the lot for about a week before some guy came in and paid $7500 cash for it. For that money you could have gotten a good rental Impala or Taurus with under 30k, so I'm thinking the guy is planning on saving it as an investment. You'd have to hold onto it for like 10-20 more years for many people to care though, but who knows, it might show up on Barrett-Jackson or something. Quote
5speedz34 Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 $7500 HAHAHAHA! And to think that a base lumina could be worth something.... Quote
supreme_style21 Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 holy. that's awesome. I went thru there again last week to see if it was still around, but nowhere to be found. Well where else can you get a 600 mile car for that price I guess. Quote
