My wifes Z-24 has 60,000 miles on it now and not a bit of trouble. It always starts right up, runs smooth, gets 30 to 33 miles per gal. and moves right out when you stomp the gas. So far its one of the most reliable cars I've ever owned.
I do though religiously keep up on the mantanance. I remember when I used to own MGs and people would tell me how bad they all run! Once every two months or so I would open the hood, disconnect the linkage between the two sidedraft carbs, put a vacuum guage on the carbs, balance them, reconnect the linkage and run it for another couple months. The same holds true for the new cars, if you run the **** out of them and don't do the mantanance on them, they will run like ****.(no matter how much plastic junk you hang on them!)

Cavs are pathetic, tis true. All the punks in Winnipeg drive Cavs with rice add-ons, or Sunfires, those are even worse.

A cavalier pulled up on me last knight and wanted to race me but I just didn't want to bother so then he pulls ahead of me and throws his flashers on and his passenger sticks his head out the window and is trying to tell me that I lost the race. I guess it's easy to win the race when the other guy doesn't even feel like wasting his time.

The 3rd gen RX7 is probably the most unreliable car of all time
Caveliers arent that bad. Thier cheap ***** and buttons and **** fall off but at least the engine makes it past 80K.
It would make a fine daily driver but only a true idiot would put a 3K body kit on it lol
sorry for calling your bro a idiot but you know how it is haha

Who owns the car now if he is getting a loan to pay it off?
Personal loans are the hardest the get if you dont own your OWN house being as the banks have nothing to take if you dont pay the loan.
