Did they really make a police version of that generation or is it just made up for the movie? |

Maybe they started to use Lumina when they ran out of Caprice... ![]() |

I live in Illinois, and I have never in my life seen a Lumina police car. I remember my parents owned a white 1990 Lumina when I was little. |

I live in Mississippi, and I can tell you our state Highway Patrol has not now or ever used Chevrolet Luminas. They've used Crown Victorias as long as I can remember (even back when I was tiny in the '80s, they drove the LTD Crown Victorias). They also use a few '98-'02 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28s as special pursuit vehicles. I will say, however, that they absolutely nailed the paint scheme used by our state troopers. |

The Lumina police package was only around for a short time (1991-1992), and was more popular with Security forces than police squads. |

I have a 91 Lumina, in England, and I would love to see any pics anyone might have of this model in police livery, from any department. My car is silver; it occurred to me that it might make an acceptable copcar clone... I know not many departments used it, but some did. I would also be grateful for any other useful tips I can get (and don't just say "get rid of it quick!"). |

i live in a subdivision in northwest indiana and back in the early 90s the security people had a 1990-1994 chevy lumina 4 door squad. i dont know if it was a police package car or not but they definately had one. they mostly used caprices (we moved there in 1988 and they had 2 of the box type 86-88 ones) and later got a 1991 caprice and a 1993? and the lumina was purchased around that time so i'm guessing 1992 or 1994 (i think they tried the lumina for a year or 2 and then decided to go back to the full sizes) -- Last edit: 2008-10-18 19:09:08 |

The Lumina with the dented-in roof got burned into my brain when I first saw the movie, so I'll post it here "for old time's sake":![]() ![]() I'm surprised there were still some cars left after that giant crash. ![]() -- Last edit: 2014-11-19 19:09:05 |

Maybe they shot the huge car crash after these scenes were shot Gamer. |

That's what G-MANN said too, but he deleted his comment for unknown reasons. |
