  • great car - 1991 Chevrolet Cavalier
    By -

    My parents bought a 1991 Cavalier RS 2- door coupe 3-speed automatic a few years back and when I got my license, I was able to take it over. Its been a very reliable car, with only normal maintenance, like brakes. The only other issue was a sway bar link. It might not be the fastest car out there, but its extremely reliable and gets from A to B with no problems. I even hit a deer and the car didnt get damaged at all.

    This car with the 3.1 V6 is very fun to drive. Munce transmission is very durable and responsive. The sound is great from the 3.1. I drove the heck out of it and I love it more than any car I have owned even though it is the oldest car I own.

  • A few Problems - 1991 Chevrolet Cavalier
    By -

    Runs good and always starts on cold days, constantly has electrical problems. A great car to start out with, relatively hardy car. Had a power window motor go up in smoke (no damage). I would recommend looking over the wiring before buying. Other than that a great car with everything a student would need to get around.

  • Awesome Car!!! - 1991 Chevrolet Cavalier
    By -

    This is my third Cavalier: Ive had an 87 Z-24 (BEST CAR EVER!), 88 wagon, and now a 91 RS Sedan. I have never had any major problems with any of them. These cars are reliable - never afraid to take them anywhere! The radios are awesome with kickin bass! The mileage has been superb and the comfort and styling of the Cavalier is the best!

  • Excellent Car!! - 1991 Chevrolet Cavalier
    By -

    This was my 1st new car purchase and the best $10,400 I ever spent! After 13+ years and 129,000 miles Ive gone through 2 exhaust systems, 2 starters, a head gasket, 3 brake jobs, and one water pump. But STILL a VERY dependable car year round. Still handles good, good mileage. Not the fastest or shiniest car on the block - but I own it. NO car payment, low taxes and STILL dependable transportation to work. "Trade in value"?...who needs it! Chevrolet made a winner here!!!

  • A great long-lasting ride! - 1991 Chevrolet Cavalier
    By -

    I bought this car brand new 12 years ago and now have over 145,000 miles on it. I havent spent more than $800 in replacement parts and still have the original exaust and clutch. The car has been extremely reliable, getting me home safe through several snow storms and NEVER breaking down. The engine sounds better than newer cars Ive test drove lately.

  • Better than a Saturn! - 1991 Chevrolet Cavalier
    By -

    The Car is 12 years old w/ 230000+ miles on it. Ive replaced heater core (150 bucks). Replaced water pump (20 bucks). Spark plug fell out (200 bucks). Maybe a thermostat (2 bucks). This was a great investment. Z24 brand new was 14,000.

  • Great drive to work car - 1991 Chevrolet Cavalier
    By -

    Only had one mechanical problem w/ the tranny soleniod. Regular maintenance and this car is a very cheap form of transportation. Sporty looking for a 11 year old car. Saves mucho bucks over driving pickup truck to work.
