1984 Ferrari 308 GTS qv review from North America
"Worth its weight in gold!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It runs a little rough, but that is understandable considering the length of time it was in storage. I think this will be straightened out when I get the 30k major service which it's overdue on.
My only major complaint is that I can't just take it to the corner garage to be repaired.
General comments?
The car still runs great and looks like a brand new car after 17 years! The maintenance is a bit expensive on this car, but not that much more expensive than repairs on some other luxury cars.
The sound of this car is like nothing else! I turn off the radio just so I can hear then engine.
A great condition 308 from the early 1980's, runs around $30,000 which is actually what I paid for my TransAm new in '96. Why anyone would spend that $30k on a Honda or Cadillac is beyond my comprehension.
