Pros: a basically functional car
Cons: rough ride, unresponsive engine, cramped space
Summary: You can really feel the road in a Chevy Cavalier - every dip, bump and speck of gravel. If the ride's this rough in a 1-year-old car, how will it be doing in year 5?

Pros: decent looks, standard anti-lock brakes
Cons: poor side impact scores, poor performance, even worse quality, and EVEN WORSE seats!
The Bottom Line: The competition has far surpassed this car. It should be avoided!
In the last twenty or so years, inexpensive cars have become more sophisticated, more fun and more robust in their structures. I remember growing up that an inexpensive car was "cheap". Cheap plastics, cheap seats, underpowered engine, pretty much the...

Last weekend, my best friend had a shocker for me. Her husband had gotten a wild hair and decided to buy her a new car even though she did not WANT one (

Pros: Comfortable, fun to drive
Cons: I now have car payments. *sob*
Something is strange about me having a new car. Growing up, my parents always bought their cars used, new cars being the toys of the elite of the middle class, something my family was not going to attain. But after years of Buick Roulette and a lemon...

Pros: Affordable ,Durable and Sporty Design
Cons: Small gas tank
In 1993, we purchased a brand new Chevrolet Cavalier. We have almost 100,000 miles on it and it still performs well. I love the way the car takes the turns. Recently, we rented a 2000 Chevrolet Cavalier to take a trip to Myrtle Beach,S.C. The seats...

Pros: Cheap and Reliable
Cons: Small and Cramped
I chose this car based price, value, and well it was a Chevy. I'm from the Heart of America, Indiana. Chevy town. Of course, I get nice discounts too because of family members who work for GM - so I was a little biased.
I got an excellent...

Pros: Engine, accessories
Cons: rear drum brakes, crash test
The Bottom Line: Great for students, and singles. Only 4 door for families.
First off, I would like to point out that I was never really a cavalier kind of guy. Hence my extremely negative review on the 2004 chevy cavalier. Now what compelled you to review a 200 z24 cavalier? Well I never thought about it, but that z24 badge ...

Pros: Excellent power output, handles like a dream, very nice feel
Cons: Hydraulic clutch (blah!), rear seat entry
I recently bought my first new car all on my own when I traded in my Ford Probe (check out my review for the Probe) on a brand spankin' new 2000 Chevrolet Cavalier Z-24. Well, what can I say? I think impressed and in sheer shock from it's abilities would...

The Bottom Line: This is a very dependable car.
I have had my 2000 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 for about 1 and ½ years. It has and is still a very dependable car. I bought it brand new and now have 24,345 miles on it.
The Z24 has a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine with a 150 hp. It comes with a...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Good gas mileage, compact, mildly comfortable seats
Cons: Feeling like you are on a Powerwheels again!
The Bottom Line: Buy it if you need a small car with good gas mileage, but not if you need lots of room!
Three months ago, I decided my old and worn out 1991 Cavalier was just about to give up the ghost, when I had a brilliant plan. I decided to go buy a newer one. I don't know why but having owned my first Cavalier for so long, I decided that maybe I was...

Pros: affordable, good sound system
Cons: poorly made, cheap construction
First of all, let me say I did not buy this vehicle, but we rented a Chevrolet Cavalier for six weeks after a car accident and it was a terrible experience. This may not hold true for all Cavaliers but I thought I would share my experience, as these cars...

I drove Chevy Cavaliers for 9 years as company cars. I was given a new car each year(always a Cavalier). When Chevy updated to the new body style a few years back, they also took a huge step back in many respects. This newer style car is quite...

Pros: Fun, sporty, has some zip to it, fairly easy to maintain
Cons: Maintenance can be tricky due to poor engineering
The 1990 Chevy Cavalier Z-24, upon first glance, is a wholly unremarkable car. It didn't exactly come in a striking choice of colors (Black, Maroon, and Blue are the only ones I've seen), the body styling is impressive but not progressive or radical,...

Pros: um...it's transportation..oh, it's reliable
Cons: boring, inelegant, chore to drive
The Chevy Cavalier has got to be one of the most boring small cars out there. If you haven't been able to tell from my last auto reviews, I like a car with a lot of spunk and playfulness. This one has neither. It's not a car you look forward to driving...
