Well guys, it's been a great ride. I sold the cavalier yesterday after owning it since 06. It was my first love, and I'll probably regret selling it for the rest of my life. It went to a close friend for next to nothing. This came about because my fiance gave birth to our son Corey oct 12th. I fought having to sell the car for a little bit, but practicality got the best of me. Besides It's time for something nice lol.
We are also moving to Louisiana this week, we both scored way better jobs, and we fell in love with the town we are moving to. It's going to be all around a way better situation for us all, and a lot better place to raise our boy then North Carolina. We couldn't be happier with this adventure.
Time for some reminiscing.
The day I got my car.
Soon after, sportlines and magnaflow catback
Riax 18's and amber corners
W type front lip
Flik ftd's and toyo tails
Chillling with Schulte
Thule roof rack
Projectors. HID's, and tein basics
Sorry for the massive amount of pictures. I do still have a full m62 kit for sale, PM me for one hell of a deal, I just want it gone, The toyo's and lss wheels are for sale as well.
It's been great guys, made a lot of good friends on here, and had some great times.
Till next time, Cheers!
PS, In case anyone is wondering, the new love is a crew cab short bed 4x4 duramax

Sad as well. I too liked the yellow cavi...
Congrats on being a Daddy. I too have one on the way and might be fighting to keep mine as well. I'm interested in the toyo tails. A PM has been sent.
probably one of my Fav yellow Js on the ORg its sad to see it go but i understand my almost 2 month baby boy makes going home everyday more enjoyable....any pics of the said truck ???
RIP JESSE GERARD.....Youll always be in my thoughts and prayers...
Always one of my favorite cars! Its not 'goodbye' to the car its 'hello' to the next stage in life. Congrats on everything!
Kind of funny I kind of did the same thing and came full reverse. Had a g6 coupe, got my girl pregnant, sold the g6 coupe, bough a saturn vue. Sold the saturn vue and bough my kia sportage and the cavy ls sport. Now I have the best of both worlds. Nice cheap suv, that gets 28 mpg and a cheap, fast, fun car that gets 35 mpg. My daughter like the cavy more, and its really no that impractical getting her in and out of the coupe. So I actually drive her around more in my cavy than the suv haha.
Congrats on the lil one and yea I have an 8yr old that I got full custody of 4yrs ago and wouldnt change it for the world..But I still manage to take care of the Fam and tinker with my J..So yea I guess I have the best of both worlds also...lmao...Congrats man and how much for the Toyo Tails?? Good luck with everything man!!!!
youll be back,
but for reals man its nice to have a fam suv my wife does and i have the cavy to tinker and keep as a work car dd
Modding my j since I found the org
Damn it's been that long. I remember when u first started posting when u got that car. Good luck man. I got rid of my yellow one for the same reason but already have another cav back lol
Car looked great, sucks you had to sell it. Hopefully your close friend keeps it as clean.
Enjoy the truck, should be fun if you decide to mod it.
I had to sell a car when my son was born, but had to buy a car when my daughter was born.
"Oil Leak ? What oil Leak ? Oh, Thats Just The Sweat From All The HorsePower!!"
i take it this was your only car?
Sad to see it go. But congrats with the family.
Clean damn car right there, but hell we all have to move on. Congrats on the upgrade in life!

aww ill miss it! Have any parts left over? (PS I didnt read the whole post, sorry if youve mentioned this)
Just the toyo's, lss wheels, and m62 kit are left, and yes I'm making some serious deals.
Thanks everyone, it means a lot to me to hear that this was one of everyone's favorite cars.
It was my only car after I sold my bmw earlier this year, she has a family car though
Modding the truck begins as once I unpack lol
EFI live, 5inch mbrp turbo back, intake, tint, hid's, 17's and 33's, and roll pan are on my list, in that order haha.
Come tax time I'll make my choice.
It'll either be another toy, and no not another cav lol. I want to build a drag car, either a outlaw honda, or a turbo f-body.
I'm glued to honda tech and ls1 tech lately.
if the toyos fall through im interested, man your car was one of my favorites ill def miss it...congrats on being a family man though

thats quite a broad difference between a outlaw honda and a turbo Fbody but me personally i would go LS boost

Loved the car as much as the owner, keep it real man, priorities change but don't become a stranger!
Damn Charlie, I guess you finally went through with it after half a million part-out and for sale posts But congrats on everything going your way lately. And definitely congrats on your new daddy status. Just remember that time flies, my friend. Mine is 8 years old now, when it feels like just yesterday that he was my chubby little toddler stumbling around the house.
Oh, and by the way, yours was my favorite of all the yellow Cavis on here. If it was a 5-speed, I'd have been on you to buy it the first time around. That front end with the WW lip and those all-black headlights was just primo. Love it. I hope your friend takes as good care of it as you did.
