May 7, 201213 yr Cheers or Jeers: 8,000 Mile 1985 Chevrolet Cavalier Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/...=item3f1722241c This is a 1985 Chevrolet Cavalier Type 10 with 8,400 actual 1-owner miles. This car was bought new here in Auburn, IN and has been stored in a heated garage it's whole life. It has never seen snow or salted roads. There is no rust and no interior wear. Everything works as it should. It is 100% original and needs nothing. What can you buy for $7500 with 8,000 miles that will get 30 MPG? We have the original window sticker, letter from the dealer to the buyer, maintenance receipts, etc. This car does have A/C, tilt, cruise, power locks, power steering, and power brakes. Again, everything works and the car is near mint. You will not find one nicer anywhere! Buy it to drive or keep as an investment. (H/T SAmedi)
May 7, 201213 yr He wants too much for it....waiting to see what he'll bring it down too... Looks nice though!
May 7, 201213 yr 2.0L engine in 1985 - ~80HP 2.0L engine in 2012 - ~280HP Albeit turbocharged but still, you've come a long way GM.
May 7, 201213 yr For $1000 it would be worth it to buy it and drive it, but not at this outlandish price. This is NOT an investment vehicle. What a joke.
May 9, 201213 yr Dude needs to reign in the pricetag. True. These cars don't go for a grand...hard to believe, they are classics now. (at least this generation of them) For the shape, 3-4 isn't bad....
May 9, 201213 yr 2.0L engine in 1985 - ~80HP 2.0L engine in 2012 - ~280HP Albeit turbocharged but still, you've come a long way GM. Interesting comparison. Let's see, the 2.2L got up to around... 160hp? The 1.8L now being used is ~140hp? Better fuel economy to go along with the higher power too.

The original 2.2L OHV like I had in my Cavalier had 100-120hp depending on application...
May 9, 201213 yr I saw one even older in traffic in clean shape the other day...a beige '82-83 Cavalier CS 4dr.
May 9, 201213 yr I saw one even older in traffic in clean shape the other day...a beige '82-83 Cavalier CS 4dr. There is 'clean' and then there is '8000-mile clean'.

True, but it's still just a Cavalier. It's an uncommon sight to see one of these still on the road (or any early J-car). Edited May 9, 201213 yr by Cubical-aka-Moltar
