It all depends on the type of Cavalier it is and how many miles it has. It can be anywhere between $750 and $3025.

You should pay 80% of the value listed in Kelley Blue Book under "good condition" for a private party sale.

I recommend putting the vehicles information into a online pricing guide. Kelly's Blue Book and the N.A.D.A. Guide both allow you to look up vehicle values online for free.

It depends on the specific options, trim level, mileage, and your location. Any where between one thousand dollars and three thousand dollars would be acceptable, depending on the aforementioned variables. A big factor in price is also who you are buying it from. Dealers generally charge a bit more. Check the KBB guide for specific information.
