  • I am not going to tell you about this great little car......

    May 11 '00
    Pros: Power, Price, Reliability, Features
    Cons: 4-Cylinder Version

    Summary: ...because I don't want you buying one and either making them scarce or driving up the price for them on the used car market. Post Edit 07/11: Yes, I know this Corsica review is under Cavalier. For some reason they scr@wed up and moved it ... read more

  • A great car for those certain people

    Jun 21 '05
    Pros: Power, V6, Color, Stereo, Seat Comfort
    Cons: Back seat space, transmission, trunk water leak, door jam rust

    Summary: This car is great. It will handle very longs drives to just about anywhere. We have taken it on back streets, along 4 hour highways non stop. Dirt roads, snow, mud anything at all. The V6 version we have will pump out everything you could need. The ... read more

  • I love this car!

    Feb 06 '04
    Pros: Great on gas, excellent heating and cooling, I pretty much love everything about this car.
    Cons: The paint is chipping, the interior is a little cramped.

    Summary: About 3 years ago, I was looking to buy a used car. I knew exactly what I wanted, and the one type of car I didn't want was a Corsica. So I searched for about a month or so, and went to a local dealership. The guy I spoke to told me that he had a Corsica ... read more

  • The Corsica isn't the "Worse-ica" !

    Nov 01 '02
    Pros: Powerful engine (V6), great A/C
    Cons: Paint chipping,

    Summary: The "Goods" -I like the powerful 190 HP V6 engine. I was getting on the Interstate one time and pushed the gas pretty hard, I was really surprised when this Chevy through me back into the seat! -It has airbags and seems to be ... read more

  • Simple and easy

    Jun 16 '02
    Pros: Smooth ride, plenty of space and easy maintenance.
    Cons: Minor troubles.

    Summary: The 1996 Chevrolet Corsica is my fourth car in six years. I purchased this car used. Having gone through so many cars in a short time gave me a good starting point for evaluating my car. The car is dependable! I have had the vehicle for almost ... read more

  • Chevrolet Corsica is a excellent choice!!

    Nov 10 '01
    Pros: Very Reliable, 4 cylinder has plenty of power, very comfortable.
    Cons: door locks lock when put in reverse but can be fixed by pulling a fuse.

    Summary: I bought the Chevrolet Corsica from a dealer in October 2001 for $2500 which is an excellent deal considering it valued at over $5000. It had 100,000 miles. It has a 4 cylinder with plenty of power. It is automatic with power windows and door locks. ... read more

  • Great car!

    Sep 23 '01
    Pros: Large trunk, roomy back seat, smooth ride
    Cons: Uncomfortable seats.

    Summary: Our Corsica was originally my mother-in-law's car. We took over payments when she was given a newer model. I found the car very easy to steer, and was happy to be able to look out the rear view window. (I sat too low in our Neon.) I was happy ... read more

  • Good value for money

    Mar 12 '01
    Pros: Performance (6 cylinders only), comfortable, price, standard ABS
    Cons: difficult to sell

    Summary: I bought my 1996 Chevrolet Corsica on the summer of 1997. That was the first car I bought in the US, and it seem to be the 'most car' for the money I had back then - It was the same price as 1993 Japanese cars. Further more - moving from a ... read more

  • Keeps going and going and...

    Dec 26 '00
    Pros: Reliable and economical
    Cons: Not very stylish

    Summary: I bought my '96 Corsica around Thanksgiving of 1998 with about 28K miles on it. I had an '88 Corsica that I had a wonderful experience with. I guess I'm just stupid, but when I finally gave my '88 to my son with 150K miles on it, I decided to try a '93 ... read more

  • POWER IN DISGUISE

    Oct 12 '00
    Pros: POWER POWER POWER!!!!!!
    Cons: BUTT UGLY

    Summary: Just look at the picture of this car. Would you buy it? I wouldn't. But when the engine went on my brand new Chevy Cavalier I went back to the dealer to trade in that hunk of a lemon for another car. I didn't have much money at that point ... read more

  • Worst Car Ever!!!!

    Aug 19 '00
    Pros: Runs great(when it stays running)
    Cons: too many to list

    Summary: I bought my 1996 Chevy Corsica about a year ago and it has given me nothing but problems! I bought because it was a cheap car and my boyfriend was the car salesman, so I got a good deal (I thought). The car ran great until 6 months later when it just ... read more

  • I LOVE THIS CAR!

    Jul 11 '00
    Pros: anti-lock brakes, airbag, tilt wheel
    Cons: none

    Summary: My husband bought me this car because he got a very good deal on it. He works for a used car salesman and rebuilds cars that are totaled. The Corsica we bought was rebuilt but not totaled. Another reason why he bought me this car is because I have ... read more

  • Rental Corsica

    May 29 '00
    Pros: powerful, exhaust note, cheap if used
    Cons: cheap interior, weird styling, looses value FAST

    Summary: I rented a 1996 Corsica with the 3.1 V6 back in 1997 to take a trip from Texas to New York and back. I believe that I put some 3500 miles on the car. Therefore, my review is based purely from a "how it drives" standpoint. I believe the car ... read more

  • Eh, it's a car.

    Feb 21 '00
    Pros: Good gas mileage, good first car
    Cons: Bad seals, bad alignment, not very roomy in the backseat

    Summary: I bought my 1996 Corsica after trading in my 1990 Corsica. I have no clue why I stayed with this model. I hated the 90. The alignment on the Corsica's is awful. The brake lines also tend to go fast. But on to my 96...it's a decent car. It gets ... read more

  • The Best

    Feb 14 '00
    Pros: comfortable, good pick up, dependable
    Cons: none yet

    Summary: Well, I purchased at 1996 Chevy Corsica on April 9, 1997. That's my my son's birthday and I knew she was going to be a winner (so now we celebrate for two reasons). Mine was purchased from a Chevy dealer, used, rental vehicle with 22,000 ... read more
