“The Ferrari is a dream – people dream of owning this
special vehicle and for most people it will remain a dream apart from those
lucky few” – Enzo Ferrari
The 308 Quattrovalvole model was introduced in 1983 and
adopted a 32-valve cylinder head. It features a 240 bhp, 2, 926 cc DOHC 32-valve
90-degree V-8 engine with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection, five-speed manual
transmission with a clutch-type limited slip differential, independent front
and rear A-arm suspension with coil springs and telescopic shock absorbers, 16
inch Speedline wheels and four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes.
Other changes for this model included a rear spoiler and
additional louvers between the headlamps to aid with cooling. It was offered in
both a coupe version and as an open-air model, the GTS, which boasted a
targa-style removable roof panel that could be stowed behind the rear seats
when not in use. Just 3, 042 Spyders would be produced during its three-year
model run. The 308 is most notable for playing a starring role in the 80's TV show Magnum, P.I. with actor Tom Selleck behind the wheel.
The factory yellow with tan interior color combination on this example is
extremely rare. The paint looks fantastic and the leather interior is in excellent
shape considering its age. The audio system has been upgraded with the stock
Alpine unit available at buyer’s request. Aesthetically, the car is stunning to
look at and its visual condition is simply breathtaking. The GTS version of the
Ferrari 308 features a targa top that can easily be removed by a single person.
As expected, the car is garage kept and has an extensively
documented service history. The service history along with parts, workshop and
original owners manuals are included in the sale. The vehicle has been
meticulously maintained and serviced regularly; with its most recent major
service in August of 2012. The attention to detail taken during its servicing
is clearly evident in the firm ride, strong engine and throaty rumble from the
Stebro exhaust.
