1997 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 review from North America
"Performance oriented reliable semi-economical vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My power sunroof went out of sync.
General comments?
This car can hold its own.
Performance top of its class.
Economical if driven in a civil manner.
Reliable with good service.
Cheap dash material and poor fit.
Ride was comfortable with stock suspension, but too much body roll for me.
Plenty of performance upgrades available for it.
Vehicle needs more refinement to be the top of it's class.
Engine could be smoother.
