| The
Beretta (not named after the TV show, I hope) was
made by Chevrolet from 1987 until 1996. It used
the GM L Platform also used on the Corsica and Pontiac
Tempest (sold in Canada). |

| There
were officially 3 versions of the Beretta made during
its 9 year run. There was the Base / CL model, the
GT model, and the high performance model was called
a GTU / Indy / GTZ / Z26 depending on the year it
was made. All versions came as 2 door coupes. There
was a convertible model planned, and it was even
used as the Indy 500 pace car in 1990, but it never
made it to production. The GTZ car came with a high
performance 2.3L High Output Quad 4 engine producing
180 horsepower. The front wheel drive car actually
outperformed the Chevrolet
Camaro at the time in slalom speed tests. General
Motors was sued because the Beretta name was used
by a gun manufacturer. They ended up paying a $500,000
settlement to charity, along with a brand new GTU.
These cars are all over the used car market, especially
on eBay, where the price is probably less than you'll
pay for a year of car insurance. Parts are also
readily available. |
