Get with the late 80's and early 90's guys. That is almost sexy. All the customs had it back then.

It's now at $10,300+ CDN.

Not worth that much to me!

At $6500 USD I might have been a bidder, MAYBE!

Considering how low miles and good of shape its in for a close to original car, I'm not surprised at the price.

But, the audio system was messed with, they added an aftermarket alarm, the pin striping. And the engine shows signs of lack of proper maintenance.
Who's to say if it does or doesn't have something else messed with or neglected?
However the price still seems low to me, especially since its minor enough that they can still do damage control and bring the car back to factory condition.
But then again, its ebay, and lack of exposure.

If it was a factory all original mint condition car that was properly taken care of, then it would easily be worth 20+ thousand US dollars. Especially with how rare a car like that is.
Even if nobody wants to pay it, I still stand by my estimate. :good:
But this does make me wonder how much more mine is worth.

To bad there isn't a place to look for the remaining Chevy Beretta's on the roads and which ones are which models.
It would be nice to see how many are left that simply exist.
Unfortunately, they best I can do is look at what is for sale, which is usually only 30 or so cars, and those are mostly 1993-1996 year range, it makes you wonder how much longer these cars will be around.

Yes, but how long ago was that?

I just realized, they say that the cars factory engine was replaced with a 3.4L, But yet they show a 3.1L in the photos for the ebay car.

The coupes never got the 3.4 engine. Only 3 of those engines were made, and they were put into the convertibles. Everything else had 3.1's. All the coupes that were released to the public for sale had the 3.1. Out of the 96 (or 98) convertibles that were made, all but 3 had the 3.1, while the 3 special ones got the above mentioned 3.4.
