Worldwide vintage autos is pleased to offer this stunning, low mileage 1980 ferrari 308 gtsi! These ferrari's are increasing in value daily and will please the pickets of ferrari critics. History: “the ferraristi who remained unconvinced that the bertone-designed 308 gt4 2+2 was a true successor to the gorgeous dino 246 had their prayers answered when the ferrari 308 gtb was unveiled at the paris show in 1975. Ferrari returned to pininfarina for the 308 gtb's styling, and this two-seat, mid-engine coupe sat on a chassis with a wheelbase that was eight inches shorter than the gt4 upon which it was based. Production started with the gtb berlinetta in 1976, with the 308 gts targa variant being introduced in 1977. The first 712 308s ferrari built wore fiberglass bodies before the company switched to steel. In all, just over 12,000 308s were produced from 1976 to 1985. These 3-liter, v-8 powered 1980s icons represent an excellent way to enter into ferrari ownership due to their relative affordability and ease of ownership, and can be divided into three different series. The 308 was carbureted from 1976 to 1979, with 1976 and 1977 models being especially desirable due to their more aggressive cams and lack of emissions equipment. The early carbureted cars and the later qv cars are strongest in the market place with the 1980 to 1982 gtbi and gtsi two-valve, fuel-injected cars commanding less due to their lower performance. Some of the 1980 models were also plagued by an oil consumption issue following the switch from carburetion to fuel injection. It's also wise to avoid cars with rust, as this can be costly to fix. Body shell galvanizing was introduced in 1984, but even these cars can still rust, so vigilance is advised.
