1978 Ferrari 308 GTS
VIN: 23679 --One California owner since new --Ferrari V8 engine, all-alloy four-cam power plant --Leather seats show fantastically --Original owner’s service book and warranty card MotoeXotica Classic Cars presents another breath-taking Ferrari 308 GTS finished in the highly desirable Rosso Corsa Red. This one-owner Ferrari has spent its whole life in the Golden State as it is a California car through and through. This 308 was sold new from Bavarian Motors in Fort Worth, Texas, to a gentleman in Los Angeles. The Ferrari 308 GTB/S is a mid-engined sports car manufactured in Italy in the ‘70s and ‘80s. The targa-topped 308 GTS debuted in 1977 and was made famous on “Magnum, P.I.” The 308 you see pictured is a steel-bodied targa-top car. This incredible car is sure to turn heads wherever it may be driven. As with any exotic beauty, it’s sure to be a conversation start as well! The Italian design and detail becomes apparent with a look at the exterior. Finished in Rosso Corsa Red, the paint is in great condition with no major imperfections to be seen. The bumpers are in great shape, and the sports car sits on four Ferrari “5-star” styled wheels wrapped in Pirelli tires measuring P 205/70R14. The air conditioning is hooked up but does not blow cold. The interior is in great condition, and the saddle leather seats look fresh. The removable targa top is also in nice shape. The 2.9 L Ferrari Dino V8 performs and runs great. On the road, the car performs as a Ferrari should — tons of grunt from the unforgettable Italian V8 sound coming from behind the seat. The engine is mated with a five-speed synchromesh manual transmission, and it shifts crisply going through the five-speed gated shifter in the center console. The highlight of this Italian powerhouse is the fact that it is a one-owner car. The original owner’s service book and warranty card is included shows it was dated June 5, 1978 and signed by the original owner from Los Angeles. What appears to be the first registration card from the Ferrari’s only owner is also included as is the original sales and service manual and owner’s manual. We do not have service history on the car but have found the car to drive tightly and responsive. This is a dynamite, powerful one-owner Ferrari ready to hit the open road and make its new home into a great collection! Mileage reads 60,495, VIN is 23679, and it is being sold on a clear title. GET OUT AND DRIVE!
