But what's the big deal with Berettas? I mean why would there be a club an' all, my brother had one i mean it was ok for a cheap car, but modding them? Are they pretty fast for being a little car after you have modded them?
.
Same could be said about the bonneville club. Whats the big deal? The club/group isnt about "oh look at our bad rides" it's about a group of people who share a COMMON intrest. Thats what this place is isn't it? You all have an interest in the Bonneville?
Anyway, Couple of nice Berattas man! Congratz on the Red one and good luck with the repairs. The rims set that black one off nice!
Actually try as hard as i might I can't get the dang thing to do anything the kid said it did. I can't get it to smoke, I don't smell anitfreeze...it's crazy! Thanks, I love the rims.
well i'm not trying to be mean or anything just wondering why they had beretta meets, i mean i understand bonnevilles, it's cuz we really do have very original cars...
*this isn't aimed at trying to pick an argument*
OK. Here is me trying not to be mean.
WHAT is the huge difference between the Bonneville and the Grand Prix, or the Regal for that matter? What's so original about a Bonneville that isn't original about a Grand Prix? Cars area almost identical besides looks, and minor interior difference.
We have beretta meets because we all share an interest, a hobby a passion. I wasn't aware there was a rule that said you can only hang out in large groups if you have this type certain of car. We hang out because we like our cars, we like the looks, the drive, the history. Did you know Chevy was invovled in a law suit with the gun maker Beretta because of the name of the car? Whats your namesake? The Salt Flats. They made a bonneville convertable. They also made a Beretta convertable in 1990 and it was the Indy Pace car that year. I think seeing an Indy convert. Beretta is more interesting. Why? There are less than 5 in exsistance.
I drive a beretta because I like how they look, how they drive. I love my cars and to me they are special. You might see them as stupid and cheap but that isn't what they are to me. How would you like it if I came to one of your picture threads and said "oh what a total cheap piece of crap, I don't see why anyone likes those stupid ugly grandma cars?"
So you see not everyone has to like what you like to drive. If I REALLY liked the Bonneville I'd drive one. Sadly, all the ones I see come in on trade at the dealership I work at are junk. I don't just drive a Beretta, I also have an Explorer, and will be buying a TA WS6 within the next year. So it's not like ive dedicated my whole life to the car, I love my car, I like everything about my car. Sure it may not be your cup of tea, as it isn't everyones, but what you like doesnt mean I'm giong to like and vice versa.
Depending on what you put into the car, is how the mods are going to work I know a guy in canada who runs 11s with his Beretta GT. And no it's not a drag beretta either, looks just like my red one. I know other guys who run 14s. Our cars stock run a 16.76 or something of the sort so a 14 is pretty fast for the car.
Just because you don't understand it doesn't make it wrong. So please don't be completely ignorant about it.
