1997 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 review from North America
"The greatest fuel efficient American sports car there is"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Seats wear out easy.
Clutch replaced once at 105k miles.
General comments?
These are one of the best cars you can buy for whats it's worth. I have about 150,000 miles on it and never had any problems since I got it.
I have always taken excellent car of this car. The engine, transmission and everything else works beautiful.
If everyone would just take time on their car's and just follow everything in the owners manual, the car will last for a very long time and will also keep the gas mileage up. I get around 30mpg in mine.
