you sir are a crazy man! you and your beateretas

 

I have some red GTZ wheels with your name on them. I believe they were rare around 1990 and are 16x7.

 

Thanks, like I told you on AIM those sell for about $400 on the boards.

I'm not sure what's classic about a Beretta, the only Classic part is you have a love affair with them.

Edit: And why did you ever offer 2500 with the bid price so low on a beretta? You should've offered like 1800.

Someone on the board said he was willing to pay $4500 if he could just get a loan from his boss who ran the Domino's he worked for and was going to use it for deliveries. So before he could get the $4500 I offered 2500 for shits and giggles and the seller agreed.

This car is the pinnacle of Beretta ownership.

 

The first step in healing is admitting you have a problem, Jameson. We're here for you.

 

LOL ! LOL ! PMSL

The digital cluster is kind of cool, but that is the ugliest and most boring dash design, ever.

 

My last 89' had digi dash, its cool in a Knight Rider sort of way. It even had a "sid" that calculated MPG and outside temp and DTE etc.

The interior is not its strong point but its far more well built and appointed than ANY C900 I have ever been in.

 

"NEW BATTERY" sez the seller in all caps.

Well, then, it must be worth $2500.

In speaking with the seller she said she has documents showing the $52 battery(including tax) and FREE install from SEARS. Its warrantied. It was one of the things that sinched it for me.

 

Looking at the interior caused me to have a flashback to the smell of an early '90s gm.

 

When I think of early 90's GM I think of the smell of plastic, sweat caused by minimum wage jobs, burritos and desperation.

It's really odd that you posted this. I was staying with some friends up in Muncie, IN last weekend and stopped to see this:

I bought it on the spot. Rode nicely on the trip home. 30ish MPG. I've already ordered a set of Azenis RT-615s for it.

I was sick of hearing you talk about how great they are so I took a sip of the Kool-Aid. I'm glad that I did.

 

NICE!!!!! I knew I would wear you down, glad you pulled the trigger on it.

Like I said, the Z26 has the 4t60E which is lame. I have a link to a write up from my friend who did the Getrag 282 swap on his. You will get high 14's just from the swap and take 120lbs off the nose which will help you in Auto-x.

 

Wait.....What?.....

Good for you?

 

Don't knock it till you try it, thats the point.

Beretta's are like the girl in school wearing tie die shirts and socks up to her knees with glasses and only looks down at the floor. But with her hair down and given the chance she winds up being quite cute and bangs out like a demonic nymph.

 

Nice! You never disappoint!

 

I already began sourcing a parts car to do the trans swap on the new GTU and a 1990 McLaren Grand Prix in a yard up state to source the T-25 and crossover. I am pissed I sold my first one before installing the turbo.

Hands down this will be faster, handle better, and get more stares than the Viggen. Its pussy magnet status will soon be passed on.

That's pretty easy to do when your Viggen is in the shop.

:wink:

 

LOL I am looking at this Z26 this weekend!

Hey, don't be a tool and rain on my thread with bogus claims about possibly buying one.

 

Wow.

 

I know I know.

I did find a MINT low mile 89' SPG on CL this morning but I thought this car was a much smarter investment. I am thinking that GTU's and other highly sought after Beretta's are going to start appreciating substantially.

I bet the book value will go from $950 to $1250 in less than two years.

 

Dear Jameson,

I am not kidding about the Beretta. I need a winter car.

Love,
Mike

 

Sorry.

Everything looks sarcastic on the internet.

If thats the case I have a 2 page write up on things to look for when searching for a quality pre-owned Beretta. I will PM it to you.

 

Looks like a nice beater. I'd rock it for $2500.

Now modding it. No way in hell.

 

Hmm.

 

Hell yeah, like a good cheese or wine.

 

Those are both quite hot, Palmer...

 

Also, the 4 round headlight thing is so played out.

 

Yeah, definitely dated.

Meanwhile, look at the shaved door handles with them on the B pillars on the GTZ. That is clean, very ahead of its time. I hope GM gets smart and begins to do that on future Saabs.

 

LOL now I know you're just playing around. Comparing a Beretta to an E30 M3 is like comparing a Camaro to a Ferrari.

I don't know, look at how hard that Retta is launching. Its clear that unlike a Saab, theBeretta does not suffer from FWDLOL but instead has OWNALL-FWD.

 

Thats a pretty sick Beretta right there. Those look like black JH8's.

 

I got my wheels and exhaust from this car for my Z26.

 

I really like the hood bra, the unpainted rockers, and the front plate.

The unpainted rockers are standard on BASE and GT models. The GTZ /GTU/Indy/Z26 all had painted or body kits.

Hood bras are smart on a car like that, protect your investment. It could cost $2-400 at Maaco to properly paint a Beretta to the caliber of the OEM finish.

Saabeh, you really scored. That GTZ also has the spoiler and Z04 GFX still there. You could sell about $600 of parts off that car easy.

80's Bitches! I will be like Hasselhoff with my digital gauges!

Look at that, drivers gloves too. I bet they are Coach, only high quality leather is deserving to be at the helm of a GTU.
