Chassis No. F106AS30033
Introduced at the height of Ferrari's late-1970s design and engineering confidence, the 308 distilled the marque's mid-engine V8 formula into a form that was both accessible and unmistakably exotic. Penned by Pininfarina and built by Scaglietti, its sharply creased lines and removable targa roof offered open-air enjoyment without sacrificing structural rigidity, while its transverse-mounted 2.9-liter V8 delivered a characteristically high-revving and sonorous driving experience.
By 1979, the 308 GTS had matured into a well-sorted and highly usable sports car, benefitting from steady refinements to drivability and build quality. Its status as one of the defining Ferraris of its era was further reinforced by its starring role in Magnum, P.I., where it became synonymous with high-speed pursuits across Hawaii in the hands of Tom Selleck. Today, it stands as a lasting symbol of analog performance, timeless design, and the approachable side of Maranello's road car legacy.
This striking Giallo Fly (Fly Yellow) with a Testa di Moro interior U.S.-market example delivered new through Foreign Car Italia in Greensboro, North Carolina, according to prior research. It remained in the United States until 2015, when it was imported to Germany by its current owner. Furnished with its jack, tool roll, and owner's manual, this vibrant GTS continues to present well today with just under 65,000 miles recorded at cataloging.
Blending one of Pininfarina's most iconic designs with its eye-catching Giallo Fly finish, a potent V8, and open-air motoring, the 308 GTS offers a distinctly engaging driving experience. It benefits from a recently completed major engine service with new timing belts completed by Mobilium of Borgholzhausen, Germany in preparation for sale. Whether enjoyed on a winding back road or admired as one of the most recognizable Ferraris of its generation, it remains as compelling today as ever.
