1999 Cavalier Review Summary & Specifications

The CavalierCoupe appeals to younger buyers; and more than half are female. The Cavalier Rally Sport is a likeable car due to its styling and its excellent standard equipment, both appealing to younger shoppers. In appearance, the Rally Sport lives up to its name. The standard features include an adjustable tilt wheel, cruise control, and intermittent variable wipers in addition to the ABS, power rack-and-pinion steering and 15-inch wheels.

If there is a drawback to this package, it is an engine that does not quite live up to the car's image, especially in comparison to some other two-door sport compacts. If a buyer starts adding options, such as air conditioning, sun roof, power doors and windows or a cassette for the AM/FM radio, the price can climb quickly. If the standard package offers what a buyer is looking for, the Cavalier is highly recommended for value and enjoyable driving.
