New car?

[captaincheesey 10+ year member]

Ok, no pics of this thing because this is a big if. But I might be coming into posession of a 2000ish Chevy Cavalier. Now I am a big guy, so this would be a little small for me for a daily, but it will be getting donated to me. I will keep my Grand Prix as my daily, but I am stuck between two roads. Should I go SQ or SPL? SQ means I spend a shit load to make it sound good, and keep things looking stock and normal. SPL means I wall the ish off and put either two power hungry 15s or 4-6 mid grade twelves. SPL option means between 4-5k in power and tons of electrical upgrades. SQ means power but not insane amounts and minimal electrical upgrades.

I am asking you all to help me decide, also to let me know how much space really is in a cavi for walling. I might go aeros if I can fix 6 twelves in there to save sheer airspace.

the trunk size in cavaliers is pretty nice. it is a pretty small car. seems like 9 times out of 10 a chick will be driving a cavy, well thats how it is here anyways.

These small cars can get load easily. I had a '95 Grand AM (Similar body style), and it was loud with just 2 12's and 600WRMS. Just make sure you deaden the rear deck a lot.

Also, look into GohillaAudio's Grand Am (My old Grand Am) he's walling it off right now, and is putting 6 12's in it, IIRC.

Well a cavalier believe it or not is alot different than a grand am, especially in those years. And the idea is scrapped now because the person who was going to donate/sell has to wait for other things, so oh well.
