Tribute...!

(Wow, two topics in a row...look at me...!)

Just a quick post, let us all pay hommage to my first vehicle, which just recently turned over 400,000 km's....(I sold it with 384,000...) my almighty Chevy Corsica!! Woo! In this pic, you can see the custom (and tasteful!) spoiler, and the brand-new front end cover, which was promptly returned for a full refund when I sold the car....! Hey, it was my first....2.8 5 spd. manual, and I liked it, regardless if anyone else did...

400,000! That's a lot for a Corsica...and I always thought of them as disposable after 150K. Wow, was I ever wrong?!?

90 Z24 with the 3.1 5 speed. Allmost as fun to beat on as the big Z. Lots of good times. More people wanted to race back then, i wonder why they don't now?

FYI - If it was a TRUE Beretta GTZ it had either a Quad4 DOHC 5 speed or a 3.1 V6 Auto. Made from 1990-1993. Maybe you had a GTU?

GTZ - Appearance AND Performance
GTU - Appearance... not much more

I have a Tempo that thinks it's a 4x4 so I take it down 4 wheeler trails all the time. Haven't got stuck once yet.

Maybe......... It had a piece of trim on the glovebox door that said beretta GT and I thought Z but I could be wrong, maybe it just said "berretta GT", By the way it was a 1988 w/5spd(Beretta-ugly appearence and poor performance)...............SR
