emb1230 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 Gen 1 or 1.5, but I'm more interested on the figures for the 1.5. LOL, yes, I know that they did exist, but how freaking rare were they?? Quote
94 olds vert Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 I've come across some time to time in the junkyard. Quote

emb1230 Posted January 24, 2012 Author Report Posted January 24, 2012 Odd that there's no figures for 97, I know that was the last year for the LQ1 Quote
Z34guy Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 I found it odd too. One of the members here ran through compnines vin decoder to try and find how many LTZ LQ1 Lumina's were made in 1997. I believe he came up with 7 LQ1 Lumina's total. Too bad compnine is down now so there's no way to prove it. Quote
95 vert Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 Somebody on here (don't remember who) said there were no 97 LQ1 Luminas. Even LTZ's were 3100's. Quote
emb1230 Posted January 24, 2012 Author Report Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) I like the LTZ's, very sharp looking. Ok looked it up, 97 LTZ's could have the LQ1, but it was no longer available on the LS's. Edited January 24, 2012 by emb1230 Quote
3pt1lumina Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 My 97 brochure says that you could get the optional 3.4 DOHC in an LS or LTZ, but I've never seen one. In a 97 Monte Z34, yes...but never actually in person seen one in a Lumina. Quote
AL Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 Yah every 97 LTZ Lumina I have seen has been a 3100... Quote
white4d96 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 Almost every Z34 I see in our yards has a 3800 Quote
urbex Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 I know 97 was the first year for the ltz, I just thought that was the first year for the 3800 as well. Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk Quote
AL Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 Not for the Chevys... Only for Pontiac and Buick Quote
slick Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 This discussion about the 1997 Lumina's with the LQ1's just will not die!! A search will probably bring up a dozen threads about this EXACT topic over the last several years. Quote
Crazy K Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 there were 97 Luminas that where made with an LQ1. all of them have the production coding as well. they were never released to the public and can therefore be assumed to have been turned into refrigerators or something. on the same note, have you seen any LQ1 97 CSs? same rule as above, but there were only THREE.

base93lumina Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 This is an odd deal. About 2 months ago, an old man was selling his 97 LTZ in Phoenix with high miles. It was an LQ1. I have seen them other times, once in a junk yard and another at a chevy dealer about 6 years ago. They do exist, but maybe its an Arizona thing. If anyone wants to call me a liar, i'll try and find the info. Quote
chadz34 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 I'm always making reference to the fact that my 96' Lumina is one of 2,054 Quote
