1992 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 review from North America
"This is an awesome car and I highly recommend it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace water pump.
Had to replace battery.
Had to replace automatic window roller.
Had to replace hood release cable.
General comments?
The car performs better then most any family sedan coupe/performance model you can buy. It handles tight and smoothly. The car has amazing torque through the front wheels with 185 ft-lbs @ 3200 RPM a meager 140 HP @ 4200 RPM is not as bad as you may think as the car only weighs 2600 lbs.
I did have to replace 4 components, but all were relatively cheap and that comes with a 10 year old car plus the fact that I added over 15,000 kilometers in 7 months.
Which brings me to the obvious point, I love the car. Think about it, I put 15,000 kilometers on it in 7 months.
One of the nicest looking cars in the genre for 1992. I would be so bold to say it is the nicest car you can get for the money.
Did I mention the torque? If properly kept up you won't notice hills in fact you might feel the desire to put on the gas and accelerate when you come to hill the way I always do =P"
The only problem is you may want to drive it a little too much...
