1989 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 review from North America
"You'll have the fastest, most pimp ride driving down the block!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There has been absolutely no major repairs that have had to be made on my car, other than the usual tune-ups, oil changes, and brakes, nothing else went wrong with it.
Oh yeah, I had to change the alternator at 100,000, I remember now =)
Could use a better stereo though!
That's it!
General comments?
Fast! If you ever want to drag race with someone, this is the car that you have to do it with, like a rocket! It can run with the big names, Corvette, Viper and the Mustang.
Very comfortable.
Wide tires make great cornering.
Looks beautiful.
I only bought mine for 3,000 which you can probably get an 89 (or '90 those are the best looking and performance years!) for about 1,500. A real bargain!
