The Ferrari 308 GTS, introduced in 1977, arrived as the open-top counterpart to the beloved 308 GTB, solidifying its place as one of Maranello's most iconic and recognizable models. Following in the footsteps of the Dino 246 GTS, the 308 GTS brought removable targa-top exhilaration to Ferrari's V8 mid-engine lineup. Its Pininfarina-designed lines, penned by Leonardo Fioravanti, were a masterclass in elegant aggression, instantly captivating a generation and becoming a cultural icon thanks to its starring role in television and film. This second-generation 308, known as the "wet sump" carbureted version, represented the purest iteration of the steel-bodied cars before the transition to fuel injection and the later, heavier QV models. This 1979 Ferrari 308 GTS arrives as a compelling example, presented in its factory-correct and striking Bianco Polo Park (599-0-152) over a Nero interior. Hailing from California, this carbureted 308 GTS retains its original color scheme, a testament to its care and preservation. Paired with its engaging 5-speed manual gearbox, this car promises a visceral driving experience, connecting the driver directly to Ferrari's legendary V8 soundtrack and classic road feel. This beautifully preserved 308 GTS offers an enticing opportunity to acquire a true automotive legend in a distinctive and desirable specification.
