Description

The 308 was Ferrari's first two-seat V8 road car. Made available to the public in 1975, it was the long awaited successor to the incomparable Dino 246 GT. The 308 series was a new beginning for the company as the premier builder of exotic sports cars for road use. As such, the 308 was designed to epitomize the sports car in its era. It did so admirably, and remains perhaps the most influential enthusiast car in history. The 308 is the car against which every subsequent sports car has been measured, upon which every Ferrari V8 sports and racing car has been based, and the car that brought Ferrari from the pinnacle of elite car-culture recognition into the minds of the general public. 25 years later, the shape and sound of the 308 is still "Ferrari" in the minds of many people.MotoeXotica is offering another fabulous 1980 Ferrari 308 GTSi Targa. This car has been meticulously maintained its entire life and comes with plenty of extras - including the peace of mind that the 33K service has already been performed! It has power windows, power brakes, power mirrors and AC! The paint is in very good condition with some exceptionally minor imperfections, which is typical of a car that is 33 years old. The front clip of the 308 is wrapped with a clear vinyl "car bra," that is barely noticeable, to keep the front end free of rock chipping. The black Targa top comes off with ease and makes for an even more enjoyable Ferrari drive experience when the wind is whipping through your hair! The original equipment Ferrari wheels look great and show no signs of curb rash. The wheels are wrapped in P215/70 R14 radials in the front and P225/70R14 radials in the rear. All tires have lots of tread life left. The 308 did come equipped with 4-wheel disc brakes. The black leather seats look great with no signs of wear to the seats, carpet or door panels. The black dash is solid with no buckling or cracking. It has an Alpine AM/FM/CD/AUX player installed in the dashboard. The black carpet flooring is in great shape, partially due to the beautiful black and red Ferrari floor mats that rest upon the floor.Under the rear deck sits a transversely mounted 2.9L, dual overhead cam, water cooled V8 that performs and runs great. On the road the car performs as a Ferrari should. Tons of grunt and the unforgettable Italian V8 sound coming from behind the seat. The transmission shifts fine going through the hydraulic clutch to the 5 speed synchromesh manual gated shifter in the center console. The 308 GTSi was rated to do 0-60 in 6.8 seconds, have a top speed of 142mph and have 205 horsepower with 180 foot pounds of torque. This Ferrari is just as nice today as it was the day it rolled off the showroom floor in 1980! This car comes with an abundance of goodies. Included in the purchase of the 308 is a binder full of receipts that document any services or repairs done to the car, the original Ferrari manuals in their original case, a Ferrari 308 parts catalog pamphlet, a Bosch Fuel Injection & Engine Management book, an Alpine electronics manual for the stereo, a Ferrari umbrella and a cover for the car. This is your chance to own a world class Ferrari. Your neighbors will envy you as well as everyone that lays their eyes on this masterpiece.
