MotoeXotica is offering this fabulous 1979 Ferrari 308 GTS, from the private collection of a prominent Northeastern physician. Housed at his personal fishing lodge, in State Col...lege, PA, situated on the famous Spruce Creek. This 308 has enjoyed the same secluded back roads as his honored guests (including four U.S. Presidents!) The rare Rosso Dino metallic paint is in great condition with no major imperfections to be found. Inside, the tan leather seats all look great with normal wear visible including the door panels and dashboard that are matched to the exterior of the car and look fantastic.
The Ferrari 308 was a replacement for the successful 246 Dino line. It sported a Pininfarina-styled body that was available in only a GTB coupe early on; in 1977, Ferrari introduced the GTS model. The “S” signifying Spider, in this case in a targa top form. Its iconic wedge-shaped body lines were designed by Leonardo Fioravanti who famously penned the 365 GTB/4 Daytona and 246 Dino. It quickly won over many enthusiasts for both its looks and performance. Often associated with the TV show Magnum, P.I., as the 308 GTS played a starring role in the series, capturing the hearts of many as it chased down criminals on the islands of Hawaii with actor Tom Selleck behind the wheel. Ferrari went on to produce fuel-injected 308’s making the GTSi, GTBi available starting in 1980, and the Quatrovolve, in 1983. Total production numbers for all variation were 12,149 in a span of ten years, 1975 to 1985. The 308 GTS proved to be the more popular variant of the 308 model, with a total of 3,219 examples manufactured.
This original 308GTS has spent the last 33 years with the same prominent Doctor, was driven sparingly and boasts only 24,114 actual miles.
