1989 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 2.8
Summary:
If you have one, keep it!
Faults:
Well, when I got the car, it had a computer problem. I replaced it.
Then the transmission went, fixed.
My most recent "project" is rebuilding the front end after Bambi decided it was too nice looking!
General Comments:
For the money it's a great car. I have no real problems with it.
Almost 200,000 miles, and it doesn't tap or leak/burn any oil!
The car is fast; not Camaro fast, but with the right work it will smoke a few imports.
The only thing I don't like is my "star wars" gauge cluster.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I own a 89 Cavalier RS, and I have had it for 3 years.
I have to replace the front drive train on it, but when done it should be good for at least 10 years, seeing as how everything on it is still original.
Oh yes, I forgot to metion I am running on 3 cylinders not 4 like I should be, and still break the speedo needle. That is a good thing.
It is second best to my 76 Camaro, but that is because the Camaro is older and my first car.
I think Chevy did something right in building the cavalier. The only reason I would get rid of my Cavalier is to trade it for a 76 Camaro.
