Greetings to everyone here! I am new to Beretta.net.
Even though I don't own a Beretta per say, I do own a direct relative! A 98 Grand Am GT coupe. I have come to find she is basically a re-skinned Beretta at the end of the day. The folks at GAgt overlooked my registration because the model year doesn't fit what the site caters to...
How the '92-'98 "N bodies" became an "N" car on its own and not formally sharing the "L" platform is beyond me. Its sorta like saying a '78 Cutlass is an "A" body, but an '81 Cutlass is a "G" body. Same car. However, the '99+ "N" platform is a different animal altogether. Besides housing similar powertrains, the similarities end there.
Anyhow, I've been in possession of the car for a little over 5 years now. It was my mothers coupe. She passed away unexpectedly, the red 98 was all I had of hers. Being a car nut, it became my decision to preserve it.

Welcome. Yes those cars remind me of Berettas. Yours indeed looks very nice.

Sharp GA, welcome to the site. I have a '92 GA SE, same color as yours, no where near as nice though. Keep up the good work with that car.

Sweet car. I remember looking at buying those in high school. What is it, 3100? Quad4?
