I call them and say why am I being penalized for not accepting a discount? and she goes &...

Re: 3500 swapped beretttas.....

i'll rephrase that, the 3.1 engine in the Beretta i have has allot of miles on it, so i'd like to swap it out for a bigger engine but i don't think i have the money for it. My buddy has a 2000 Mustang GT with a v8 and i'm loathing over that.

Re: 3500 swapped beretttas.....

I'd like to do a swap in exchange for the DOHC 3100. Only problem is, i don't think i could afford a 3800 swap

The Beretta In Year's Time

The Beretta i think for most is around 16 years old. If the car is fixed up, would this be a car be considered appreciated say 20-25 years down the road? It is fairly rare and unique already. I remember my aunt saying her first car was an 1950 Chevy and to her it was just a car. But today, you see c...

Re: 96 z26 questions.. and gibberish..

I do know the shift points in OD compared to D is different. I say give it a try from a dead stop and compare the two.

Re: 96 z26 questions.. and gibberish..

To help with the sluggishness, i would recommend buying Seafoam or say a type of octane booster. My Z26 Beretta isn't really modded out and i can spin the tires from a dead stop at times. I think the engine cleaner helped remove any gum buildup in the pistons and so on to help the responsiveness of ...

Re: What's the Hype About These Cars?

One thing i love is when someone wants to roll down the window, they always look on the door, never the console. I'm like "Think: Fire Bird" They're like oh right, then they look at the right place lol.

Re: Alternator issues

When i bought my Beretta, i kept losing power and the car kept dying. 2 weeks later and 300 bucks shorter in the bank, it turns out the guy who wired the aftermarket stereo did it wrong, in turn, kept blowing out the fusible link, which blew the alternator out and was draining the battery until the ...

Re: What's the Hype About These Cars?

I had a few people comment and say they liked my car, others to ask exactly that "What kind of car is that?" Funny enough, my aunt hates my car. But i figure once i get extra money i'll fix mine up more. Knowing that the Beretta was last in line after the Camaro and other great models, i'm...

Re: What's the Hype About These Cars?

My bad, i used Escort and the Buick as dull examples. This Beretta i have now is actually my first Beretta, and i've jnever even heard of it until i bought it. It does turn heads, it has allot of pick up and can surprise even the faster cars on the street. In fact, my buddy owns a Firebird and we ra...

What's the Hype About These Cars?

Some people hate them, others love them. I find it interesting there are fan pages for Beretta's, but not other cars like the Ford Escort, Buick Century, etc. My Beretta grew on me. But why is there allot of hype over these cars, is it because they were discontinued? because they're fairly rare? wha...
