1981 Ferrari 308 GTB For Sale

I came across a classic European sports car for sale on Craigslist about a month ago. The car is a 1981 Ferrari with the license plate number 308 GTB. It is a dream car for speed enthusiasts and quite rare in the US. The Italian manufacturer Ferrari released it in 1981, and it is the successor of the Dino 246 GT/GTS. This 2-seater sports car has a V8 mid-engined, rear-wheel-drive layout designed by Pininfarina.

This 41-year-old car has only been driven 39800 miles since new, making it a remarkable example of the 308 GTB available on the market today. If you're looking for a chance to own one of the European dream cars, this is your opportunity to add it to your garage.

The beige interior looks exceptionally well in the photos with clean surfaces and trim throughout. It is cool and very rarely used for its age. All materials have a good shape and are tidy. There have been no mentions of rebuilding or mechanical issues; therefore, it is in genuine condition, and we hope all panels, equipment, and features on the dash are still working properly, including air conditioning, cassette stereo, and radio.

The mid-mounted 2.9L quad-cam V8 engine is equipped with four twin-choke Weber 40DCNF carburetors and was factory rated at 240 horsepower. It is mated to a 5-speed manual transmission and can go from 0 to 100 mph in just 15 seconds, with a top speed of 159 mph. Despite no mentions of mechanical issues and the fact that it is unmodified, you should always come to see it for an accurate assessment of its condition.
