Buying or Selling a Ferrari 308?

 

The Ferrari 308 was first launched in 1975, and was acclaimed for its powerful and efficient V8, used by Ferrari for the first time on a road car. The first few hundred of examples to come off the production line were made of fiberglass, later replaced by a more affordable and easier steel construction. Fiberglass had the advantage of being light and, as Ferrari was unsure about the future popularity of the model on the road, they decided to start off with a fabrication suitable to racing. The model was a big hit however, and both fiberglass and steel models were quite popular. The first models of Ferrari 308 were carbureted, until 1980, when emission regulations forced Ferrari to replace the Weber carburetors with Bosch fuel injection. This operation cost the Ferrari 308 approximately 40 hp. Luckily for speed and power seekers, most horsepower were restored just 2 years later with the 4-valve (quattrovalvole) models. The Ferrari 328 replaced the Ferrari 308 in 1985, which presented a very similar design and featured a slightly more powerful engine.
