What owners say
"Owners generally see the 1999 Chevrolet Cavalier as a solid choice for a first car—it's affordable, has decent fuel economy, and is fun to drive. Many appreciated its low maintenance costs and good handling. However, some felt the car is on the cheaper side, lacking power and having excessive road noise. Overall, it's considered a good starter car with some reliability, though it may lack the performance and features of newer models."
Acceleration, Gas Mileage, Maintenance, Pretty fast for a 100% factory car. Five speed, smooth clutch, pretty awesome car overall. I'd consider buying a newer one in a few years because it is a very good car and VERY fast for factory.
August 30, 2010The car accelerates poorly. It is built cheaply and you can tell this by how loud it sounds on the highway. It does however get me from point a to point b and at 40 mpg i cant really complain.
August 9, 2010A good basic car! Lots of room to add things to it. Solid and dependable.I just wanted a larger simple fuel efficient basic car which was not like a coffin like my last car the Firefly sedan. I wanted a car which would survive a crash and not kill me.It's only cost us a thousand at most in repairs to keep it going since we bought it. A great car for a socialist like me or a teenager wanting to rev it up and give it some speed.

October 4, 2008Accelerates and handles well, IF you can drive standard. Lots of rust, but i blame poor car care for that, she handed me a can of paint and said "this is to cover the rust". Interior is nice, and i like to look of the exterior. Cheap to buy, really good on gas, maintenance, nothing you couldn't do yourself if you had the time and a bit of skill. Love the 5 speed, really fun to drive.
September 1, 2009This is an ok car. It has excellent fuel economy 35 mpg. Still has plenty of power 2.2 L 4 cylinder. For the money... well u get what u pay for. Also this is a fun car to drive. Mine has over 160,000 miles on it and still runs and drives great.
December 12, 2008z-24 engines dont last that long if you always have your foot in the floor, but every thing else is good. the car is good looking, fast, and smooth.
July 9, 2008Its a white car (normally hate the colour white on a car but w/e) and I love it! Just recently put a new stereo in it and its amazing. When i bought it, it had about 120000 kms on it and it runs perfectly. I've had it for about 2 months and it hasn't needed any repairs yet...
October 7, 2008everyone i ever talked to that owned a cavalier says its a great car and doesnt have problems, one person i know has a 99 base 2 door and she always tells me how she loves the car, i have riden in it and it drives very smoothly, and she says the clutch went once and thats the only problem shes had. a lot of bang for the buck
October 22, 2007I bought it as used and just had to recently replace the engine at 146,000 miles. I put alot of miles on it and my only complaint was the loss of airconditioning three years ago
April 21, 2007Even if it's a cavalier, this car is comfortable to drive. You are well seated and when you need power you press the pedal and you are served. This car have a good looking when you put some accessories on it.
