Overview & Reviews
New LS Sport trim level for coupes and sedans that features an all-new 2.2-liter EcoTec engine. A Z24 sedan joins the Z24 coupe at the top end of the lineup, while both the LS and base model Cavalier gain additional standard equipment and an optional Sport appearance package. Both Z24 models get an upgraded stereo and an optional Sport appearance package will be available later in the year. Three new colors have also been added along with an upgraded cloth interior.
- Affordably priced, new EcoTec four-cylinder engine, Z24 is a stylish and speedy low-buck sport coupe.
- You get what you pay for in terms of feature content, haphazard build quality, dreadfully uncomfortable seats.

Nice car!! - 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier
By jerry - April 5 - 10:12 pmI bought it used for $7,995. I love it. It is an all around great car. Stiff sporty suspension, and a smooth highway drive. Looks and rides like a true sports car. I have the rare chrome stock wheels. It is bright red. Its a head turner. Not a bad built car. The 2.2 eco tech is the way to go I have heard nothing but bad thing about the 2.4 Z24 plus the body looks better. I strapped a z24 factory sign on there just to be cool

A good value in an inexpensive car. - 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier
By Cavalier Driver - April 2 - 11:33 amOur Cavalier has been very reliable and inexpensive to own. The only significant repair we have had to make, beyond routine maintenance, was the replacement of the fuel pump at about 80,000 miles. Even though I now work for a new car dealership of another make of cars, I have to say that our Cavalier was a good purchase for us.

Horrible - 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier
By nick - March 28 - 10:12 pmI bought this car for $8000 with about 61,000. I got ripped off with the price due to the fact that I am young and my first car. When I first got the car I loved it, no problems at all for the first 3 months. Then, the worst happened. I needed a new battery, new headlights, which are still to this day 2 different shades. the dashboard is loose, dealership said they fixed it, never did. New brakes. The mileage on the car started flashing at about 65000 mi. Im hearing rattling sounds from the front end of the car. This is just about the worst car anyone could ever purchase. No wonder why they discounitued the Cavalier. Im surprised it took this long to discontinue.

Good Basic Transportation - 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier
By Matt - February 26 - 1:26 pmRelable and smooth running subcompact. Only complaint is the dashboard warps and cracks too easily. Other than that, a very low maintenance car.

BEST ECONOMY/FUN CAR EVER - 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier
By Johnathan - February 24 - 10:00 amChevy must have done something really right when they built my car. It is a 1990 Chevy Cavalier that still rides like its on rails. Its got 228,000 miles on original everything and it is still one smooth ride.

Midnight - 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier
By cwilson179 - January 28 - 10:46 pmI bought my car on January 29, 2004. It has been the best car I have ever had! It is dark blue metallic. My car is 5 years old now. It still runs like new. I have taken care of my car very well. I always get compliments about how good of condition that my car is. Everyone loves the color of the car including me! The 2.2 ecotec so far is a very good engine I now have 82,000 miles on my car. I dont have any problem with the comfort with the interior of the car. I drive this car at least 40 miles per day mostly highway driving. It gets the same great gas mileage that I got the day that I got it! It gets between 30 and 32 mpg. I would not trade this car for anything.

Not a bad car at all, at least for me - 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier
By p DuB - January 15 - 4:31 amI bought my 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier standard black coupe in November 2006. I like this car because it hasnt given me any problems yet. I hear very good and bad things about this car all the time, I dont really know who to believe. But, all I can say is that I own the standard 2002 coupe model with about 58,000 miles on it and it runs great. Ive had this car for about 2 months now and havent had any problems yet, but from what I have been hearing and reading about this car, Im ready for the worst that can happen with it. I havent changed the oil or anything on it yet, but I will very soon. Overall, its very reliable for a nice every day car for driving for fun, to work, or to school.

Get what you pay for - 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier
By Gabe - January 14 - 9:54 amIm still driving my Cavalier and I have to say that its not too bad considering the price. Obviously its one of the more inexpensive cars out there, so expect what you pay for. The key phrase here is "preventative maintenance." As long as you get regular oil changes and check-ups, the Cavalier will hold up. Will say that it seems to run into problems on very wet days, especially when running through puddles. Not too enamored with the crash ratings but, again, you get what you pay for. Couple of expensive repairs but confident they are isolated incidents and dont affect the overall dependability of the Cavalier. Remember, its a cheap car. Dont expect a Porsche out of it.
