    That is the largest amount of bull shit I have ever heard. In the year and a half I worked at Honda, we never had one car require a new engine. In my life I have never even heard of that. I also don't believe any dealership in their right minds would put a new engine in a car under warranty four times. They would probably just label that car a lemon and give you a new one.

    Even thought i am extremely against any American car with less than, say 300 horsepower, I don't think they have even had problems that serve. Stop being such a no0b.

    Exactly what I said..... the dealership is not stupid enough to put 4 defective engines on one car....and well on the part of being extremely against American made cars I couldn't agree more with u more bro....

    Guys don't flame.

    Maybe he does have problems with his Corolla?
    Which dealership has been fixxing your car?

    And surely a stock caviler is not faster than a stock corolla.

    well earlier he said he has a hahn racecraft turbo kit..... but he now says he is NA with a stage 27 head...... it really helps to stay consistent with the stories bro

    i do admit the ecotec is infinitely more tunable than the zz series engine though

    A stock ecotec powered cavalier is not any faster than a stock 1zz powered corolla (both manual of course), shit, i used to run neck and neck with a buddy of mines ecotec powered sunfire which has an intake and exhaust on it (with my civic), and a friend of mine with a stock 98 corolla would always beat me... so i dunno... equal drives, i put my money on the corolla

    and btw... yes, the new ecotec is faster than the corolla... not the XRS, just the normal rolla engine..

    thats funny....i redline my engine at 8200 ish every time i shift and the motor is in perfect condition....i have 25000 hard miles on it and havent had a single problem...i know im a relatively newbie here but i call some serious bs on this cavalier troller....rediculous how a mother driven rolla could be blown up 4 times unless your mom is angela proudfoot or something!....and i had a built ecotec too in a sunfire which blew up on me a few times with hard driving.....and i find it really hard to believe that you would be stupid enough to still drive the car after 2 or 3 motors went let alone getting a 4th getting put in....i know i personally would have driven the car through the front door of the factory you claimed to have worked at and parked it there and left it.....tell us the truth sir...you are a troller who is just trying to create controversy and rile some people up....get a life you liar and stop with the nonsense about bringing your mother into it.....you are a disgrace and a fraud!
