Buying or Selling a Ferrari 308 GTB?

 

The Ferrari 308 GTB was a mid-engine sports car produced by the Italian manufacturer from 1975 to 1985. Launched to replace the popular Ferrari Dino 246 GT with a bigger engine, it was then updated to the 328 in 1985. A Bertone-shaped Ferrari 308 GT4 was first created to succeed to the Dino 246 GT, but the 4-seater GT wasn’t as popular at the time, as it was so different in shape from its predecessor. The 308 GTB was designed by Leonardo Fioravanti at Pininfarina, who was responsible for some of the most celebrated Ferrari classic designs, such as the Dino, Daytona and the Berlinetta Boxer. He used elements of each of these brilliant designs to create the shape of the 308. The Ferrari 308 GTB was built on the same SWB tube-frame platform as the previous Dino, and also used 4-wheel double wishbone independent suspension. The DOHC V8 engine featured four Weber carburetors. European versions produced 255 hp, but American versions were down to 240 hp due to emissions control devices.
