1988 Chevrolet Beretta review from North America
"I loved this car!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first got the car, the hood bent when it was up. Slowly this caused the latch to not hook correctly. One day on the way to get a new hood for it, the latch snapped and the hood blew up and smashed the windshield!
The radiator fan didn't work so that was a big annoyance.
General comments?
This car had so much pep and handled corners like a dream!
I loved the steering, it wasn't too loose or to tight.
The transmission was awesome. It had a transaxle so it sort of acted like a manual transmission so it was so much fun.
The only problem was that I am kind of short and the seats were low and the steering wheel didn't adjust. I had to sit up very far to see out of the windshield.
