  Virtual garage - Ferrari 308 vs 328 GTB
When the Ferrari 308 made its debut in 1975 it was immediately successful and quickly became the foundation model for the firm.
Where that car had been the street-legal culmination of Ferrari's sports car racing championships of the 1960s, the 308 series was a new beginning for the company as the premier builder of exotic sports cars for the general public.
The 308 is the car against which every subsequent sports car has been measured, upon which every Ferrari V8 sports and racing car has been based, and the car which brought Ferrari from the pinnacle of elite car-culture recognition into the minds of the general public.

 Ferrari 308 GT4
The 308 GT4 was another new type of car for Ferrari in that, not only was it aimed at the less expensive end of the market, but it also featured two additional rear seats.
Although referred to here as Ferrari 308 GT4's, the first series were badged as Dino's in line with Ferrari’s practice of naming it's smaller capacity cars after Enzo Ferrari’s late son.
However, Ferrari couldn't have provided Bertone with a trickier concept, the phase many performance automakers went through during the seventies and eighties for producing mid-engined cars with 2+2 seating spawning several wholly unattractive vehicles.

The Ferrari 308, known by many for its role as co-star to Tom Selleck in the hit TV series "Magnum P.I." is one of the most recognizable cars in the world.
The 308 was made for a long time, spanning 10 years from its introduction in 1975 to the last year of production, 1985.
In 1986 the 308 was replaced by the very similar looking 328, with a 3.2 liter engine, 20 more horsepower, and color-coded bumpers painted the same color as the car, rather than fl like the 308.

 1975-1989 Ferrari 308/328 GTB/GTS - Classic Buyers Guide - Motor Trend Classic
Every week, the opening sequence of "Magnum, P.I." showed his 308 fishtailing down the road, throttle mashed, the top's center section always removed to let the sun shine in (in truth, it was to allow more headroom for the six-foot, four-inch Tom Selleck).
It was Ferrari's best-selling model for a while, but the GT4's unconventional wedge-shape look and Dino nomenclature unfairly saddled it with controversy we'll examine at a later date.
Those lines were so beautiful that, several years after its introduction, a 308 GTB inspired the "Decisions, Decisions" poster where its silhouette was tastefully compared with that of a reclining nude female and an expensive bottle of wine.

 Ferrari 308 GTB Serial Number 20537 - history page
In late 1989 this lightweight 308 GTB was purchased by Michael Sheehan for conversion into a 288–bodied in–line engine–powered 308 Ferrari IMSA GTU car.
In August 2000 the SCCA accepted the Ferrari 308/288 GTO for racing, with the engine mounted in-line and with a Hewland gearbox, but the engine had to be converted from injection to carburetion and the IMSA legal 12" wide rear wheels had to be converted to an SCCA legal width of only 10".
As 308 GTB s/n 20537 was prepared for its first test, it was time to contact the SCCA and clarify if there were any other problem areas needing to be addressed before the car could race.

The 308 proved to be the most commercially successful Ferrari yet, with 21,678 produced; a later version, the 328 GTB/GTS, came on the scene in 1985 with a 3,185cc version of the V-8, and accounted for another 7,412 cars before production ended in 1989.

 Ferrari GTO
If you are only a little familiar with Ferraris, the 1984 GTO (often referred to as the "288 GTO", although the official factory nomenclature was just "GTO") might be indistinguishable from the standard Ferrari 308, which was their most popular model.
The 1984 GTO is 4.3 inches longer than the standard 308; this was necessary when the drivetrain mounting was changed from transverse to longitudinal.
It is based on the 308 Quattrovalvole (Italian for "four valves") with the heads modified and compression ratio lowered to 7.6:1.

 Sports Car Market > Profiles and Price Guide > 1974 Ferrari 308 GT4 Dino
Badged until 1977 as a Dino, thereafter as a Ferrari, the 308 replaced the preceding Dino 246.
Although the newcomer's wedge-shaped styling was controversial, the performance of the quad-cam three-liter V8 certainly was not, the latter's 236 bhp proving sufficient to propel the 308 past 150 mph, with 60 mph coming up in under seven seconds.
This Dino should not necessarily be thought of as a bargain, though, because these pedestrian Ferraris cost as much to repair and maintain as their million-dollar brethren.

Then he tried a used Ferrari 308, which he calls "the Tom Selleck car," because the actor drove one in Magnum P.I. "The sound, the feel, the look of the car - there was nothing that wasn't supercool," says Smith, 59, a partner in the law firm Kirkland and Ellis.
