Overview & Reviews
Indigo Blue is added to the exterior palette. A CD player is made standard on the LS Sedan and Z24 Coupe. The Z24 Convertible has vanished from the lineup.
- Affordably priced, roomy enough for a family of four, Z24 is a stylish and speedy low-buck sport coupe.
- You get what you pay for in terms of comfort and convenience, Z24 Convertible no longer available, poor build quality.

Id buy another one right now. - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By Chuck Hays - August 12 - 9:00 pmI needed a cheap car to get to work in, found this one for sale nearby. Paid 1800 for it with 228k on it. It was fairly clean and drove well. I have had to do a few things to it to keep everything operational, but I am a mechanic, so no biggie. I drive like I stole it, change the oil regularly and it just turned 309 k. Good value for the money.

My first baby... - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By tes092193 - April 28 - 4:24 pmBought this car as my first car, with 130,000 miles on it. Drove it until 150,000. Didnt put a penny into the car other than: gas- obviously, oil changes, and a new set of tires. For being 16-19, the fact no money needed to spent on car repairs was very nice. The fact I got 30 miles to the gallon easily was nice too. I had friends who had the exact same year as mine with well over 200,000. I would be driving this car still, except a driver pulled out in front of me, and sadly totaled my Cavy. 5000 dollars in damage was too much for the insurance company. This car started up every time, warmed up quickly, and never left me stranded. For a 2200 engine, it had plenty of pep.

Awesome Car! - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By jones_rob - February 10 - 10:22 pmI have owned my 01 Cavalier for three years. It had 65,000 miles on it when I purchased it. Now I have around 95,500 miles, with absolutely no problems! Still running on original battery! Replaced brakes at 70,000 miles and still have 1/2 pads left. My only complaint is that the dash cracks something crazy. It had one big crack in the center, which I covered with a stuffed animal, but now there are 6+ cracks on the dash. Chevy says its "common" for this car. My previous car was a 97 Cavalier LS Sedan, that car was great until it hit 165,000 miles, then everything started to go. Hopefully I can get this one up to that!

Some flaws, but still a great first car! - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By lexxibaby - January 1 - 1:30 pmI bought this car almost 2 years ago, it had about 82K on it. Now Im at about 112K. The head gasket was broken when I bought it but I got that fixed at the dealer. 3 months later, my alternator broke, but that didnt take much! And I have had a few brake problems, but I love the drive and I got in a car accident a few days ago and nothing was severely ruined! Only my radiator and headlight, and small bend on the hood. Although I have metal bumpers, definitely dont get the plastic ones because thats what saved my car! There was a fuel pump problem, but that I only happened when I ran out of gas completely. Sounds like a lot, but I did go to the junk yard to get to parts so it was cheap!

Good Car For Teen - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By 631rob1991 - March 6 - 11:51 pmI had the Z24 model which had good power. For its price it was great. Interior os too small with very little space in the back seat and trunk. If youre over 62" no way to drive as the roof is very low. Stylish.

Great Car! - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By brantm21 - January 12 - 12:02 pmI purchased this car new in 2001. Great, Great car. It is one of the most reliable vehicles Ive ever drove. It now has 145,000 miles on it, and still strong. The good: They dont make great cars like this anymore Drives and rides great Great fuel economy 33HW 29C The Bad: Cheap Interior Bad for ball joints, but easy fix Other than that fantastic car and very reliable. I use this car for everything. Long trips, back and forth to work, grocery getter. If you looking for something cheap and fun this is the car for you.

Overall A good car - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By dagda567 - October 24 - 2:00 amI bought this car as a daily driver with 98,xxx miles on it. I had low expectations but for a cheap car it was a great vehicle. For a four cylinder it was surprisingly quick on acceleration and got awesome gas mileage when gas was five bucks a gallon. The cloth seats were really comfy in the LS model unlike the hard plain ones in the standard too. I wish I never sold it!

Nice car for little money! - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By SweetMikki - September 17 - 2:00 amWe bought this car for my teenage son when he turned 16 & the car was 7 years old with 120,000 miles on it. Hes driven it all through high school & part of college & the car has been nothing but great to him! The ONLY thing this car has needed were normal maintenance such as brakes,tires,oil changes. The fuel economy isnt the best for a car of its size. Gets around 23 in the city & 29 hwy & thats a stick shift. Its very comfortable but the interior is cheaply made & things are starting to fall apart but it is 10 years old after all!
