1997 Chevrolet Cavalier
The PERFECT car for someone who needs reliability !
LOW RESERVE!! I NEED THIS GONE !!!!
I purchased this car in June of 2012 and have driven it (mostly highway) for over 15,000 miles! Even at 80 MPH I was getting about 25 MPG and the car had power to spare!
This car probably won't win any awards for aesthetics... but, as a functional car that is reliable I give it two thumbs up, as I've had absolutely NO problems with it. I don't know anything about the history before I bought it. But it has a clear title and no major damage that I have seen.
- Tires have good tread
- Alignment is good / perfectly straight
- starts easily in 118 degree Phoenix heat as well as 20 degrees !
- 25 MPG average ( what I was getting )
- Steering is tight, power steering works excellent
- Anti-lock brakes work perfect.
- Interior is 6 out of 10. one good cleaning and it'll shine.
Problems that I know about:
Convertible top won't go down all the way. I've checked it out and it seems to be the gear on the RH side. Easily replaced.
Convertible top is in very good condition , except for a few small scuffs and one spot where the frame poked through ( less then a dime width ) NO LEAKS !!!!!
Needs weatherstripping
Needs rear vinyl window ( Power leads for Heated Window )
Side mirrors need to be put back on ( Comes with car )
Leaks small amount of oil. small drips.. nothing major..... about 1 quart a month worth.
RH hubcap needs to be reinstalled.... (included)
Dashboard ( top part ) has missing piece near windshield. Not necessary to be replaced, but I found this at "pick-a-part" and it was about $25. Just pops off and snaps on.
Headliner need replacing.... or ... simply tear it off. Hangs down. Again.. priced this at Pick-a-part and was about $30.
Sun shades.. need recovering. ... or... tear off the fabric. Darn Phoenix sun !!!
DETAILS OF AUCTION!!!! READ !!!!
I will deliver anywhere in Phoenix on FEB 7, 8, or 9. NO SOONER .. NO LATER
What to have it transported ?? Pickup on Feb 7,8 or early morning on 9th. NO SOONER... NO LATER
DEPOSIT TO BE 1/2 AMOUNT OF SALES PRICE! Payable by PayPal / Money Pack (from Green Dot ) / Cashiers Check sent via FEDEX / or Bank Transfer to CHASE.

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.
UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant
Tue, 08 Apr 2014The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
