"Inexpensive to buy and maintain, and performs very well for its class"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Stock speakers started scratching, but that's my fault. =]

General comments?

This car has great acceleration and turning capabilities.

It can be a little cramped for the back seat passengers, but they don't seem to complain.

I have one comment to make about the statement of your cavalier on the running cost. There is no way that it is a 10. It costs me roughly 20$ to fill the tank from a 1/4 tank to a full tank, and mine eats gas like no other. I drive for maybe an hour and I have to fill it again.

Whoever says their eats gas is probably using the wrong gas. Use 89, it won't detonate and pull your timing like 87 does. Better gas mileage, and more power, it's well worth the extra $.10/g in mileage gains alone. Try checking your O2 sensor, too. If it's bad, it'll go into 'limp home' mode and dump gas into the engine to keep it from running lean. Try fixing the car instead of knocking it.

They do eat gas though, that's probably cause it's got a small tank of gas, and it's got plenty of power.

I have a 92' and it costs less than $20 to fill it and I can drive it for a full week or longer on that one tank. I agree, fix the car instead of knocking it.

To the person whose Cavalier uses too much gas: I just wanted to let you know that running the a/c burns fuel. Don't know if you thought of that or not. ;)

It have a leaking return line (usually on top of the tank where you can't see). If your going through a tank in 1 hour it is not likely the engine that is consuming it all. Check your fuel lines. If leaking, yes it will give poor economy, but its also a safety hazard. Note: if you have a check engine light maybe one or more injectors are stuck open.
