1992 Chevrolet Beretta GT review from North America
"A reliable, decent, zippy, surprise for your money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My coolant hoses went one by one, but that's my fault for not replacing them all when the first one went.
I have been trying to figure out why the "low coolant" indicator keeps coming on even though I am losing no coolant.
General comments?
As the owner of two Corvettes I was mightily surprised by the Beretta. Don't get me wrong, it's no corvette, but it is quick, responsive and well powered for it's size and weight.
I was expecting a family car that slogged it's way through traffic. It manages pretty well on the highway and in traffic.
I paid $3,000 for it used. I consider it a steal. Were Chevy to resurrect this model I would give it a serious look. I think Chevy doesn't realize that this model is "the one that got away."
