1988 Chevrolet Beretta GT SCO review from North America
"Great performance, for a high cost!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Everything has gone wrong. I have not even owned the car for a year yet and I have had to replace the alternator, battery, all the brakes and front rotors, rear brake cylinders.
I just had the head gasket replaced too.
New radiator and all the hoses. Water pump.
I am sure the list will continue...
General comments?
I really like this car.
It is super fast, but it cannot stand anything.
Everything breaks, but my car can beat most stock cars on the road. So if you want a fast car then it is good, but be ready to dump a lot of money into it.
I had a 1988 Beretta GT as my last car, it wasn't as fast, but it was more reliable.
Other than engine problems, the car is really good in every other aspect.
The body style with ground skirts gives a really mean look, the engine screams are music to my ears and it is comfortable.
