That one is pretty pathetic, but I have 3 cavaliers and first one was just a POS, but ran for a while. Only paid 500 bucks for it and was an 85, lol! Then got a 99z24 for 11500 w/ only 11,200 miles on it and ran it stock for 2 years and then dropped 3k in the engine with intake, chip,Full exhaust, port and polish, and NOS and was running 12's with it. Didnt last more than a year when I warped the heads from the quad getting hot and engine was toast. Ended up replacing it for dirt cheap and selling the car for 7500.
Last cavalier, I didnt do so much to it. Was mostly stock, but was a nice daily commuter. I just got tired of all the interior noise being GM puts there shit together like paper mache. Bought it used because my Thunderbird w/ the supercharger on it was killing me on gas. Sold the cavalier after 2 years to get my FoFo. During that time though I bought my mom's Eclispe GTS off her being she wanted something else and got a heck of a deal. She paid 27500 for it, drove it for 2 years and sold it to me for 10, 000. I just sold it last week for 9500 and had it for almost 2 years lol!
