Hey guys. I have been on the site for a few months trying to find myself a J-body for my new daily driver and winter beater. Well my search is finally over. Last Saturday I picked up a 2004 Chevy Cavalier Ecotec 2.2 4 door base 5 speed car with 91,000 miles. For awhile I was only coming across 2 door 5 speed cars however with my job I was really hoping to find a sedan. After almost giving up hope of finding a 2003+ 5 speed sedan I came across two for sale at the same time. I found an 04 black sedan and 04 white sedan. Both had there pros/cons however the white car was in amazing shape and was completely rust free. The car was originally from Arizona however the guy just moved up to my area and was given a company car. So he did not have any use for this Cavalier anymore. He listed the car to sell at $3,400 due to the fact the car would need inspection and emissions. After looking at the car and thinking it over a few days I offered $3,000 for the car and he took it. I have been driving the car the last week and I am just loving it. Also I have to say that the Ecotec is a very peppy motor and a blast to drive. I just can't wait to do a full tune up on the car and start doing mods like intake and exhaust. However being this is my daily driver and not my toy car I am not going to go too crazy. I just want to do mods to help improve the mpg even more and maybe get some extra power out of it. However I do plan to VERY soon disable the DRL's and get myself some HID's. Also some tint would be cool before it gets into spring/summer.
Here are pictures of the car the seller posted:

Ahh nice to see another 03+ sedan on the jbo.

Get rid of the trim guard on the doors. Fix the trunk latch. Paint the handles. Add tint. And either put some new rims on it, or some hub caps that cover more of the steel.
Then this car is sex.
