new car for me

[robgt]

My wife and I just picked up this car yesterday it is a 95 z26 with 18,435 original miles!  Car has low miles but needs a few things like a ac compressor, brakes, and tranny coolant lines.  All stuff due to age but car is clean

[speedygtz]

yea, i seen that car, there was a guy on bstuff.com that had wanted to purchase that car, promise me it went to a good home and isnt going to be a dd or winter driven and i'll be a happy man....

and of course, since you got one of the few lowest milage beretta's in exsistance, pictures are a must!

wast backwoodz looking at a 96 with only 18k miles on it? did you get this from a dealership? what color is it?

[backwoodzberetta]

I was about to trailer the car home when they told me that someone had put a 1k deposit on it.  


Please tell me you didn't pay full price for it.


Black rose metallic with a cracked dash.  If you need one, I've got a perfect dash for it.

We drove 6 hours to get the car.  We got home and there is a few things that need to be addressed on the car.  AC condensor, trannie coolant lines, brakes, and the roof has a few tiny bubbles of rust on it.   And of course the crack in the dash, but nothing that can't be fixed. ÂÂÂ
When we picked it up they said there were alot of calls for the car.  This car will never see the winter so I expect to have it for along time.

How much are you asking for the dash?

[robgt]

Yeah I did pay full price he wasn't willing to budge on it, the car has low miles and this like I said earlier is for my wife to help take the place of the 90z24 which she is very attached to.

I would post a picture but I don't know how.  If someone could help me out I would post them.

Pictures!!  sounds nice!

[backwoodzberetta]

Sorry dude, but I think you got had.  I don't care how many miles were on it.  It's an OBD 1.5 Z26 with 18k miles but it's not worth anywhere near 6 grand.

[99GaGT3X00]

wow 6 grand for a 13yr old car and a beretta to boot.
its prob worth half that.
im sure its a nice car but not worth 6k.
now you get to have fun replacing all the **** that dry rotted over the years from lack of use

[95Z26beretta]

definetly like to see pics of this car. I take it it was the same car backwoods was looking at to buy?

[robgt]

when I see a car that I want with that low of miles I buy it.  I know the age is 13 but for the price of the car there is no car with 18,500 miles on it for $6000.  This car will be replacing my wife's 90z24 that is rusting away on her and she loves the z24 and the beretta is the closest thing I can get to her car.  The car is in really excellent condition and I don't feel the price was too bad.  I got the car we want not the car we had to settle for.  I would like to post pictures but unfortunately I am computer illiterate.  If someone could tell me how to post pictures I can have my wife post them for me.

go to photobucket it will help you!

Well that IS alot of money for a '95 Beretta.

And only 18K is not necessarily the motherlode you may think.

That thing has been sitting along time between outings, and that is NOT GOOD for an engine.

Valve springs and such get held open for extended periods of time, weakening them.

And the FIRST thing I would strongly recommend is lower intake manifold gaskets before you have to. And you WILL have to pretty soon.

It may be a nice car, no doubt, but IMHO that is WAY TOO MUCH, especially with the problems you may have inhereited with the non-use.

But good luck with it. And do those gaskets!

stay the hell off the salt my friend, please tell me your going to stay off the salt?
