Description of 1983 Ferrari 308 308 Quattrovalvole Rare Factory Nero |
The Ferrari 308 is arguably the most iconic Ferrari ever produced, the car that introduced most people to the Ferrari brand. The luscious flowing body, penned by Leonardo Fioravanti, defines the timeless design of this classic Ferrari model. And, the wonderful 3.0 liter Ferrari V8 engine sitting right behind the driver endows the 308 with the power and sound to match its beautiful design. This engine went through three iterations throughout the 308 lifecycle, progressing from carburetors to fuel injection and ultimately to the four-valve Quattrovalvole version from 1983-1985. The "Holy Grail" of the Ferrari 308 and by far the most powerful ever produced isthe Quattrovalvole or "QV". This is one of those cars. As if this wasn't enough, this particular car was painted by the factory in Nero, a beautifulblack and a rare color for a 308. In fact, some sources indicate of the 871 GTS QV cars built worldwide in 1983, only 437 Quattrovalvole cars were imported to the US, most of which in rosso corso or red, very fewwere painted Neroworldwide, making this an extremely special car. Photos do not do justice to the color of this car! This stunning 2 owner, special ordered 1983 Ferrari 308 GTS Quattrovalvole is incredibly rare. After departing the Maranello production line it was delivered to The FerrariCollection inMiami May 30th 1983.

This 308 GTS has been meticulously maintained its entire life and has been used sparingly from brand new.
