Why don't/didn't we get THIS!?
Permalink  

I found this after a google image search, It must be a Lumina SS but I don't know because the site it's off of is Arabian or whatever.  There's a coupe version too! (warning big pic) I searched for Lumina though so it must be one, and the links say Lumina SS in them.




That looks like a mini GTO, the wheels and the lines of it are very similar, but the taillights are different.

There is also a Lumina currently sold in South Africa, looks kinda like an older Sentra or Maxima from the front, whatever I'm thinking of.




It also has an SS badge^

We got the first car as the Cadillac Catera, and there's no place in the lineup for that Lumina.

Well I'm pretty sure its an older model so there would have been a place in Chevy's lineup when they still sold the Lumina.

Thats not a Chevy, thats a rebadged Holden. Chevy rebadges a lot of their cars.

Holden is Australia-only. So for GM to sell the same car in the rest of the world, they gave it to a brand that already had a dealer network. Pretty simple.

Those aren't something rebadged as a Chevy, except the last one, they were Chevys rebadged as them, but I want Sarin to answer it so I'm editing your post.

That's simply false. They're GM cars rebadged into several different brands, they didn't "start out as Chevrolets."

And I think even Fire It Up can think of three.

When asked to find three rebadged Chevrolets, you found one that wasn't sold in the US and a since-discontinued Cadillac.

Yeah, with any of my friends I can use that bull**** (started as a chevy, etc.) but people on here are smarter.
