1992 Chevrolet Cavalier Base review from North America
"Great starter or commuter car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rust, a lot of it. The owner before me did not take care of it and let it sit in a lot on its rims.
Small fixable coolant leak at 90,000 miles.
Noisy, but expected from a four cylinder.
Cup holder was broken when I bought it and seemed to be very poorly built.
General comments?
Handles very well and is fun to drive.
If you get this car take the time or money to rust proof it as well as possible.
Use it to commute every day to work (25 miles each way)
Easy on gas.
Very very reliable, have no major engine issues in the years I've owned it.
Great for a reliable starter car.
