1997 Chevrolet Cavalier std coupe review from North America
"Fun to drive even with $3.00 gas"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Who ever owned the car before me installed a new back window when the previous one was cracked. However, they had some one rig it the old fashion way with tar. I never noticed until two months ago my back glass flew off my car going 70mph on the highway.
Other than that no problems. The car itself looks and runs great.
Oh yeah it cost me $200 to install a new back glass the right way.
General comments?
Very quick 4-banger
0-60mph in 8.7sec.
Inexpensive, sporty, fuel efficent
What else could you ask for for $3,000.
