1982 Ferrari 308 GTSi

Era-defining styling and $40k in recent service make this 1982 Ferrari 308 GTSi an Italian sportscar great. Beneath its removable targa roof panel, Beige leather and tactile equipment unfold to offer vintage comforts with sporting flair. A 5-speed gated manual gearshift and leather-wrapped center console separate bucket seats with Cavallino-embossed headrests. The driver faces a 3-spoke Nardi steering wheel ahead of Veglia Borletti instruments, filling out the air-conditioned cabin. Both original upholstery and Rosso Corsa paint (verified by included paint meter readings) elevate this example among its peers. 

Behind the cockpit, this Ferrari's 2.9L quad-cam V8 benefits from a comprehensive major service in 2023. A front and rear suspension refresh, all new brakes/fluids, and Continental ExtremeContact tires lend well-sorted road manners. Updates including R134a-converted air conditioning and a Blaupunkt AM/FM/AUX stereo bring this example into the 21st century while retaining a wholly vintage look and feel. Included service records and Carfax history dating to 1991 lay out exemplary long-term ownership in California. 

Introduced in 1980, Ferrari’s 308 GTBi/GTSi saw the deployment of Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection. More approachable than ever before with efficient and reliable power delivery, the car remained solely equipped with a now-revered manual transaxle and limited-slip differential connecting power to the rear wheels. A legend to the present day, this 38k-mile Ferrari 308 GTSi is sold with two key fobs, tools, a matching spare, and Seller’s Disclosure.
