I just want to add my experience for those who are wondering if buying a 308 is a good idea. IT IS.

This is a pretty car, very reliable, quick enough and comfortable enough. In fact, although I have other cars licensed and ready to drive, this is my daily driver.

Only complaint is getting in and out.

A bit too attention gathering for me, but you drive a red Ferrari 4 feet off the tarmac, people are going to turn their head.

Great car. Period.

Faults:

Turn signal leaver inside the vehicle once broke off while trying to signal for turn.

Head liner became unattached after car was detailed. Had to send it in to be re attached.

Intermittent wiper switch for windshield wipers became stuck in on mode.

Window motors for automatic windows weren't strong enough to roll the windows back up. Had to replace them.

General Comments:

Even though this car was very expensive to maintain, it was my favorite vehicle I have ever owned.

The 308 had an amazing suspension that glued it to the road.

As far as how the car handled, I have no complaints.

Little things on the car like window motors, or handles always seemed to break.

So much fun to drive.

Electrical System Glitches all went away with a BRAND NEW Battery!

General Comments:

"One of the best handling cars ever to come out of Maranello! Simply blows many 12 cylinder cars into the weeds." "Drive a healthy GT4 and you will probably buy her... It's as simple as that!"

She had black "Boxer" trim which made her look like a broken cookie. A new paint job makes her look like a DREAM!

At 50 years "old," I finally found the Ferrari for me after having hunted for 20 years... This is the most fun car I've ever driven. She's not the fastest, but with the sun roof open and the 4 webers signing their song, she begs to be driven fast on the twisties! But she is so easy to drive in town and, if you've got the time, there are plenty of people willing to chat everytime you're at the store or gas station.

The engine and tranny were rebuilt 20K miles ago by Carlos Durante in Seattle. The cost for that 12 month (!) project ran over $21K alone. The entire interior was redone in thick 2 tone leather and the car was repainted from bare metal. The project is finished.

Presently, the A/C has been removed, and there is no radio. All hoses have been renewed and timing belts replaced.

Find a good GT4 and take care of her. Drive her at least once a week and she will prove that FERRARIS HAVE SOUL! It's as simple as that!

Faults:

Nothing at the moment (!) T.

General Comments:

A real pleasure to be driven. 8 cylinders are real smooth and "symphonic"

Power is less than any other posterior models, but is it really inconvenient when you look at fuel's cost (?)

Everything has been conceived for pleasure in this uncommon car. The fact it is NOt a common one (gear shift - driving position - shape of the body car), all these points and many more are contributing to make this car a REAL different car. For it is a FERRARI... The 308 or 328 body lines - directly inspired from revolutionary FIAT 246 Dino (yes, this car was a FIAT!) - haven't grown old at all. Besides, a myth is always young, isn't it?

I think that the best COMPRISE to be found in all Ferrari's history is, indeed, the 308 GTBI or GTSI. Engine's running cost doesn't spoil your pleasure (unless you're a very wealthy man.)
