Description of 1986 Ferrari 328 Targa

You are bidding on a beautiful, investment quality, 1986 Ferrari 328 GTS with only 38,800 miles.

Shehas a recent, engine out ($15,000) service completed by LFSC (LFSC.com) a certified Ferrari dealership located in Lake Bluff, Illinois, 60044.

Arguably one of Pininfarina’s most elegant designs, the 328 has become an iconic collectible – and quite affordable. Instantly recognizable as a vintage Ferrari, she is welcome at any car show, Ferrari event, and is a pure pleasure to drive in fine weather.

I reluctantly must sell this car to continue the financing of my technology business.

I purchased the car from Lake Forest Sports Cars a year ago and have only put 100 or so miles on her. Soon after the purchase, the shifter became stuck in gear, and the good folks at FFSC fixed it immediately and at no cost. They are the real deal. It is now 100%.


The exterior is in excellent condition with extremely small imperfections. There will always be a minor chip or scrape it seems. The tires appear new, the brakes work perfectly, and after the obligatory warm up – she shifts perfectly.


Of course, she sounds amazing.

The engine compartment it very clean and the interior shows very well, devoid of the usual “sticky” surface problem plaguing other vintage Ferrari’s.

The Air Conditioning works well – but was never a Ferrari strong suit. The steering is crisp and all of the gauges work perfectly. Lake Forest Sports Car went over the car thoroughly before I acquired it and there is nothing to note that is wrong with the car.
The original spare, books, jack, etc. are all present.

Now is the time to buy a 328, the market has cooled off a bit and, before it takes off again, this is an affordable classic Ferrari.

I’ve set the reserve at a price to protect my investment but will listen to all offers.

The title is clean – and I can take any number of pictures that you might require. Just ask.


Again, I am a collector, have owned 15 or so Ferrari’s and am bullish on 328’s right now. You should be too. It’s the best Ferrari under $100,000.


When comparing 328’s – or any Ferrari, the records of maintenance are critical. My car has the recent records from a certified Ferrari dealer – beware of cars without it. You’ll only regret the purchase later. I know, I’ve been there. Ferrari repairs are not for the faint ofheart - so insist on the records and service history.

She is sold, AS-IS, where is – with no warranty implied or expressed. Inspections are encouraged and I can provide documentation of service.
The $2000 deposit is non refundable and I report non paying bidders to Ebay. I can takeadditional pics,inspections are encouraged (with an appt) and I answer all emails as promptly as I can. Please ask allquestions before bidding - I want this to be agreattransaction.
