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.

Nobody loves their cavalier like me - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By Layla - January 7 - 11:07 amMy grandfather bought this car back in like 2006. I dont know how many miles it had when my grandpa purchased the car for $3,000 but I have had the car for a year and a half and when I got it it had 188,000 miles on it and now has 206,000 miles on it. I love this car. I remember taking it all over the place when I was younger. I have never had any problems with this car whatsoever. No repairs other than a new muffler and exhaust pipe needing replaced. My car always starts and always gets me where I need to go. No problems ever except my headlights suck but that was caused by a collision with a deer. Great gas mileage. I love this car. Its about time for me to get another car since this one is getting so old and so many miles on it but Im having trouble with the thought of parting with my cavalier. My grandpa always had cavaliers and if you take care of them I swear they can go forever. We know a man down the road that has 300,000 miles on his! My cavalier is 3 different colors and has carpeted seats, I never thought I would love it this much but I do. GREAT VALUE I LOVE THIS CAR

SPORTY, QUICK, FUN AND RELIABLE... - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By phoongdan - June 28 - 11:54 pmI have owned my LS sedan for going on 5 years now and its been a pleasure to own and very fun to drive! I replaced the stock air filter with a K&N system, upgraded the stock exhaust to a racing exhaust, and use synthetic oil and the 140hp engine (about 150hp+ with the mods) and I have the 4-speed automatic with overdrive and the car literally can outrun most 4-cylinders and even some V-6s Not only is it quick, but I like the exterior and interior styling and the car has been exceptionally reliable. Ive got over 135,000 miles on it and have only needed basic repairs like a water pump, radiator hoses, thermostat, and rear tail light socket replaced.

Awesome car! - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By AWESOM CAR!!! - July 28 - 12:06 pmI bought this used car at 180,000 km and it is in perfect condition, love the 4 spd automatic, great gas mileage lots of fun to drive very reliable and love the design. regular oil changes and maintenance this car has never skipped a beat. With original everything this 9 yr old car shifts smoothly and drives great. I would recommend buying a cavalier over the competitors.

Reliable & sporty 2001 Z24 - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By Dano - October 22 - 7:39 amWe purchased our 2001 Chev Z24 new & it doesnt owe us a thing. We replaced the plugs,tires & battery this year (2009)after 120,000 km.s of all kinds of Canadian weather & road conditions. It has a rattle coming from the front tire area which I suspect its a bad strut. All in all not bad performance for a car creeping up on 10 years old. It is a 5-spd. & is fun too drive with plenty of "omf" when you need it. One of our better large purchases in our lives. I would recommend it.

CHEAPEST CAR, NO PROBLEMS - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By molle888 - August 5 - 12:34 amI bought my 2001 Cavi in 2000 with 9 miles on the car. It was really cheap, $12,000 brand new. I wasnt expecting this car to last, but now were in 2009 and I have never had a problem with the car. I have had the brakes replaced once, but other than that, with regular oil changes, this car has been a jewel. The AC work so much better than my Mitsubishi Montero, of the same age. The gas mileage is a HUGE plus. I adore my Cavi. Forget the high priced cars with the fancy names, GET A CHEVY CAVALIER! I have had nothing but great times with mine! I hope she lasts another 10 years!

The Car that never let me down - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By CavGuy4Life - April 27 - 1:50 pmI was taking my car to Tennessee one year and on the way down it was leaking transmission fluid. I did no know this, drove down, stayed for a week and drove home. On the way home the transmission started acting up. When I got home and got the car to a mechanic, I was totally out of transmission fluid. The mechanic said my car should have never made it out of Tennessee. This car is very relyable if you maintain it and respect it. Cause mine got me home when she should never have got me out of the city of Gallatin TN.

Fun and low cost coupe - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By 2001 Cavalier Coupe - January 21 - 7:51 pmI bought a 2001 Cavalier Coupe and drove it off the lot new beause it was inexpensive and had a sprots car look. It has been a fun to drive and very reliable car. The 5 speed manual transmission and the interior makes this compact car seem like more of a sports car when driving it. I have just purchased a new 2008 Cobalt, and I already miss the interior and the 5 speed shift handle of the Cavalier.

Cheap Sports Coupe - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By Matt - November 28 - 2:37 pmI bought this car 3 weeks ago and so far the only problems have been a burned out fog light and a CD player that doesnt work. The engine on this car is strong and reminds me of my V6 Cavalier in that its strong and responsive. Gas mileage isnt bad for a small car but could be better: 25 MPG. It rides a little harsh but thats what you get when you get the Z24. Exterior styling with the 16-inch wheels and black paint is attractive. The interior, while functional, is full of cheap plastics and rattles. I also dont like the location of the power window switches. I love the stereo and speakers though. Rear seat room is better than youd think and the seats are much nicer than in the base model.

Reliable - 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier
By CM - August 14 - 9:58 pmThis car is really great. I bought it new with only 15 miles on it. Since then, I have driven back and forth with it adding many miles on it within the four years that I have owned it. I average 20,000 miles a year. Most of those are freeway miles. Ive had to repair my brakes twice. Once at about 40,000 miles and the second at about 80,000. Other than tire rotations and oil changes I have not needed to do any other repairs. I have been hit twice in this car. Both times it was my front bumper that took the damage. The other drivers have been at fault and my bumper only suffered a crack in the middle of the bumper. There was no interior damage in either accident. The bumpers are really tough
