Old member returning to the scene! Now with 94 Z26!
Hey everyone, not sure how many of you will remember me, I used to be on all the Beretta forums a few years back as BadBeretta. I live in NB Canada and was a member of the Maritime Beretta Club. I had an 88 Base and a black 89 GT, as well as a 93 GT bought w/ blown motor that I never finished replacing. Sadly, they all went to the crusher last summer as I never expected to be into the Berettas again. Until this baby caught my eye that is! I was looking for a 4 cylinder car for travelling to work (I drive a Dodge Ram with big tires, rollbar, etc., costs me $40 a day to go to work!) and found this near mint 94 Z26 on Kijiji. Has the Quad 4 HO and 5 speed tranny, always garaged, never winter driven, undercoated and dealer maintained! The car has 320,000 KMs on it, but the engine in it is a GM crate engine with around 100,000 km, also installed at the dealer. It's been painted and looks great, although there are a couple minor rust spots on the wheelwells and the rockers have some rust underneath. The fuel door isn't even rusted out! (First Beretta I've seen around here that isn't). Pictures don't even do it any justice, this car is in unbelievably good shape, especially for a 17 year old car! It's definitely a head turner, I can't believe how many looks I get in it
Anyways, heres a few pics of my new baby, I loooove it! And sooo cheap on gas, I can go all week on 50-60 bucks, when 1 trip in the truck was 40!

Nice! First thing I'd do is get those fog lamps replaced.

Thanks guys, yeah I couldn't believe it when I saw it, I had to jump on it. I hardly ever see any Berettas around here anymore so its nice to have something different from everyone else. I had a set of headlight covers around here from my black 89, but haven't come across them yet. And I agree on the foglights, I don't care for them either and don't even use them cause they throw off a crappy yellow light...
No pics of the interior yet, but I'll get some. It's not quite as nice as the exterior, but it's not trashed by any means. It's clean, but has minor problems like some broken trim around seatbelts, cracked door panel, the dash top is lifting a bit in the corner of the little 'shelf' above the stereo. Seats are average to good condition, but damn they are comfy! Also needs a power window switch, but I broke that myself I think. Still works but I can't put it back together and back in the console til I replace it.
