1988 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 review from North America
"Simple, efficient and sporty"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power transmission leaked. Radiator hose leaked. Nothing major so far.
General comments?
This car handles well. It took some time to get used to a front wheel drive, but it it very responsive and hugs the road.
Seats are uncomfortable with little padding.
Overall is a very sound car.
