Someone I work with has a son that is looking to buy this beretta, and I was wondering if anyone knows anything about it. Was it beat on, is there motor work done to it, what the hell were they smoking, and has it ever been wrecked?

I think the better question is what is your co-workers son smoking for considering to buy that thing, let alone for over 6 grand? (if I’m reading behind the flags correctly) :doh:

oh shit. i thought that was a dollar sign and the car was under $1000.

if anyone spends more than $2k to purchase a Beretta, there’d better be a title to another car in the glovebox.

Yeah, I know its hideous, and I think he is smoking crack if he wants to buy it, but my co-worker said that she tried to talk him out of it and was hoping I could find out something bad about it so she could use that to keep him from buying it.

Whats wrong with that car…thats hot, I love the half flat black paint over the stock ugly dirty red color and the dirty seats…and the fact that he spent probably the same amount on the vertical door kit that he probably paid for the whole car…:nuts: And I really love that he decided to take pictures of the car in the filthy condition it is

Seriously, what are these people thinking when they do this stuff???

The funny thing was he used to talk trash on my mustang all the time. ABout how his car would beat mine in a race and all this shit. Not saying my mustang was anything special, nothing but a stock v8 automatic to be exact. But come on now, how you gonna drive this trash can looking heap of shit and talk shit on a 3 year old car that exceeds the maximum speed limit of a beretta, in 1st gear.
