Yep. 2004 Orange Metallic is right. Looking for some fun mods to do with it now. If anyone has any experience modding Cavaliers in any way (mechanical, or just for show), post your experiences here if ya want.

The first odd thing I have already found weird about the Cavalier, is that the brake rotor is held on by nothing but the pressure of the rim and the lugnuts (as well as the calipers holding it on when they are installed).

My Neon had at least some star washers on the lugnuts holding the rotor plate on. (Is the Cavalier supposed to have those too???) The other day when I went to change the front brake pads on the Cavy, the rotor came right off with the calipers.

That's not good... and to make sure the star washer just didn't fall off I checked the other side and nothing there either. Very odd, but I guess it's just the first of many comparisons I will be making between Dodge and Chevy.
