"Excellent, reliable first sports car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Water pump & fuel pump went out same week!

Replaced exhaust/muffler.

Replaced alternator.

Replaced thermostat.

General comments?

This was a great sporty little car.

Plush interior that wore well.

Car handled great and cornered like a true sports car!

The throaty sound of the muffler would even turn heads!

Was great in the snow and had good gas mileage.

I wanted a Z24 for years when the "new" body style came out (silver ground effects). I finally got it in 1993. Very inexpensive ($8000) and looked good.

I only had this car for 2 years because I was young and stupid and would buy cars and get tired of them, then trade them in on something better. I traded this one in on a 1992 25th Anniversary Edition Camaro RS.

I still miss it!

Unless you want to open yourself up to extensive ridicule, I wouldn't use the words Cavalier and Sports Car in the same sentence.

Actually I wouldn't even use them on the same page.

Hey I have my 89 Z24 and I love it.. And why not put Cavalier and sports car in the same sentence, the Z24 is the sport version of the 4 door Cavalier, should we not put station wagon and Cavalier in the same sentence, because it's not really a station wagon right, it's JUST a Cavalier..

I have a bad ass Jet Black Z24, and it runs great; it took out a 1985 Ford Mustang 5.0, so don't dis the Z24.
