Cracked the head.
New starter.
ECM & electronics were fried.
Interior was gutted because the door seals leaked.
Paint chipped off.
Tire fell off at 80mph.
This car was extremely slow, that is... when it decided it was going to start for me. There were times when I had to let it warm up for 10-15 minutes before shifting into drive because it would stall out otherwise.
When it did run it drove pretty nice, was comfortable (except when it rained.. yuck! there would be a pool of water in the car), handled VERY well and got extremely good gas mileage.
I personally think this was just a very poor example and not indicative of all Cavaliers.
This is so true. I have a '89 cavalier and I have almost all of the same problems. My biggest problem with that car is the water problem!!! I had to have my windows reset and my car still leaks. It has to be the most disgusting thing in the world (the smell). My starter went as well!! I just spent loads of money to get the car towed because of my starter!!!
