My first car is a tan Chevy Cavalier, made in the great Y2K era (1999). I got it when I was 14 as my parents get a great discount (almost 20%) if they own the car at least a year before I start to drive. I love this thing, I don't think I will ever sell it. I hope to keep it up and make it my classic car when I grow up.
So far, it only has about 68,000 miles on it which is really good. The main problem I have with it is that it is a winter car when it comes to start up. In the winter, I can start it with no problem, but in the summer, or anytime it's above 40 degrees, I have the hardest time starting it. It just starts really rich. I will admit, I too have tested the spedo on this four banger, got it to about 110, then I let off for a stop sign.
