Not much. An upgraded stereo with a CD and MP3 player is now available on the base coupe and sedan. The Sport Appearance package that includes 16-inch wheels, a rear spoiler and sport suspension is also available on the base coupe and sedan.

Pros:
  • Low price, torquey four-cylinder engine, optional satellite radio and OnStar.
Cons:
  • Ancient design inside and out, cheap interior materials, poor build quality, low resale value, poor side-impact and front-offset crash test results.

  • Well Improved! - 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier
    By -

    I have owned a 93,96,98,99 and 2001 Cavalier Z24s and by far this 2004 is the best! Very much improved!Faster smoother engine and sportier handling. Gas milage great, 28 and 29 combined city/hwy. Brakes improved,workmanship improved.Low wind noise,richer paint finish,even has solar ray glass,others had cheaper glass. A lot for the money! Forget Honda and Toyokey! My nephew has a civic and has nothing but trouble with it.Plus they smell like sulfur!Plus they are 1 and 2 the most stolen cars.

  • Chevy Cavalier LS Coupe is Great! - 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier
    By -

    While everyone is running around touting the latest in foreign cars, my personal pick is the Chevy LS Sport Coupe. Its priced right, has wonderful fuel economy (havent yall cringed at pump prices lately?) This car handles like a sporty dream, it has a no nonsense interior without ninety- nine gizmos and gagets to fiddle with..has great pick up and cant be beat in city traffic for maneuvering. Its a terrific second car!

    It is a great vehicle, I dont understand how you can say it is outdated. Look at the difference from the very first cavalier, even the 96s. It has saved me so much money on gas. Smooth ride, good pick-up.

  • Great Car for the Price! - 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier

  • Best low end car Ive ever bought - 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier
    By -

    I got the Z24 model, it has a 2.4L engine, larger 16 " wheels and 5 speed transmission. This car is very responsive, I like 3rd gear the best! I bought it to go to/from work... but Ive taken it on long road trips and was very surprised at the great ride!

    I think that the car is a work of art. It has great ergonomics, exterior design, and drive feel. I got a $4,000 rebate which helped alot with the down payment. I am very satisfied that I purchased a reliable, fun to drive car.
