See, he didn't learn one important thing about driving this car when you're a guy. Don't look at other motorists. No-good Boyfriend won't want to drive it, unless it's 30 below zero and the beer store is just a hop, skip, and a jump away. Chevrolet is targeting female consumers with the Cavalier, and the RS gives women some snazz and jazz to keep them from heading to the Pontiac dealer for a Sunfire. They want a safe car, too, and the Cavalier comes standard with anti-lock brakes and dual airbags.
Traction control is available when the optional four-speed automatic transmission is ordered.
The RS, which stands for Rally Sport, adds decorative touches and some equipment not found on the base Cavalier coupe. Bigger, more attractive wheel covers are bolted onto larger wheels and tires. A decklid spoiler is tacked onto the rear, and exterior trim is body colored. Added equipment includes a remote trunk popper, variable intermittent wipers, front mud guards, easy-entry front passenger seat, tachometer, trip odometer, floor mats, upgraded stereo, dual visor vanity mirrors, and a trunk convenience net. RS decor is limited to Rally Sport embroidery in the front seat headrests, and the putrid decal on each side of the car.
