Very reliable car.
The car has no a mileage of 230,000 kms. We bought it when it was 4 years old at a mileage of 90,000 kms. We have had no issues over the years except for the normal maintenance. Very reliable and great vehicle.

1999 Chevrolet Cavalier

by kbissonette on 03-22-2013
Chevy Cav, okay, but nothing special
We purchased this car to replace a minivan and were greatly surprised by the overall fuel economy. The ride itself is a little boxy, and the interior could use some work, but overall very nice

simple but reliable
nice little car, i've had it for many years and have never had any problems. the vl model which I have doesn't come with a/c standard, or power windows/locks, which is why I didn't rate it higher in Comfort

2000 Chevrolet Cavalier

Chevy Cavalier
this is our second 2000 Cavalier, and both of them treated us very well. the first one we had for about 10 years and the second one was driven by my husband's mother and we've had it now for about 4 years. i highly recommend this car. in fact we may be looking again in the near future for another car and we know that the cavalier is very high in our rating.

It's pretty cool
Its not a bad car, doesn't look ot bad, smooth ride as with any car as long as you take good care of it. You could buy a lot of after market parts also make it look how you want.
Overall I like my Cavalier.

2002 Chevrolet Cavalier

by Bear1980 on 03-16-2013
My car is awesome!
Chase, my Chevy (my friend named him!) is awesome. I love driving him, and he's incredibly reliable. A former roommate would borrow him when it snowed too much one winter since his car was not reliable at all!

I have slowly been teaching myself how to fix little things on him. The manual is incredibly easy to follow. My parents had a Cavalier when I was growing up, and I was the one who had to change the clocks when the time changed, and it was so easy to do.

I change my air filters, and I learned how to change the rear tail-lights recently. I'm not sure if I'll try the headlights, though, since I burned them out on my last car from touching them - but if I do decide to try it again, I can already tell it's going to be easy to access the bulbs. A colleague of mine has a truck of a different brand, and when he had to change his lights a few months back, he had to take apart the front of his vehicle!

Thanks to my parents having a Cavalier when I was growing up and getting my license, I think it will have to take something huge for me to NOT keep buying them, or, other Chevrolet vehicles.

average ride
my experience with this car has been fairly good, with some minor hickups. i have had to replace the battery, alternator and starter on multiple occasions. over i have not had to put much money into it but it adds up. good car for a cheap price, with some minor cheap fixes

2002 Chevrolet Cavalier

by ChevyGurl on 03-06-2013
Love my Cav
This is the 2nd Cavalier I have owned. I loved my first one till the day the tree won (black ice) I then moved to a Grand Am, which was the worst car I have ever owned, I had nothing but issues with that car. I have now owned this Cavalier for 3 years, and have only had to get the rear struts done other than the reg maintenance (Oil changes). Another reason I love cavaliers is because they do have some pep to them, and they run forever, my 1st cav had over 260,000km and was still going strong up to it's untimely demise. My current cavalier is only at 160,000km and I am looking forward to the next 100,000.
