My Mom bought my 1990 Cavalier brand new for $12,340.00. I got the car in "2011" when she passed away. It had 65,000 original miles on it ...it now has 256,000 miles on it an I wouldn't think twice about driving it to California ( I live in South Carolina). It has been an Awesome Car , through the years I have replaced... Water Pump, Fuel Pump, Computer , Front Struts , Normal Tune -Ups an Brakes. At 200,000 miles the Head Gasket did start to leak an I had that replaced. I have put maybe $1,500 in repairs an normal maintenance in the car over 13 years. I L❤ve My Cavalier!!! P.S. ( The car is in Mint Condition & Beautiful...it looks like it just rolled off the Show Room Floor..) I've been on many dates in my Cavalier an Chicks Love It !! Some remarks were... "OMG".. this is a Time Capsule !! OMG ..."I"m Rolling a Window Down" !!! Hahaaaaa.. 🤣

It has a few dents to the passenger hood where a deer ran out in front of me and so its not fixable unless I get another hood and fender. So its really not worth it. The money that I take to fix it, I might as well go and buy another car. other than a couple of dents it is a good car.
economical for the long time owner

Bought this at auction when it was 2 years old. Had 66k on it. Now has 148k. Had to have flywheel replaced shortly after we got it, but only because previous owner had installed the wrong starter. No major problems in over 10 years! Just a battery and tires. No engine work ever. Still runs great! Uses no oil. Tape player is wearing out, but stereo is fine.

Its great for a first time car buyer. If you treat it right, it is a low maintnence, repair it yourself vehicle. Mines pushing 300 000km and still purrs like a kitten. I highly reccomend using synthetic oil. I only burn half a liter every 10 000kms between oil changes.
