Selling or Buying a 1979 Ferrari 308 GTS?

1979 Ferrari 308 GTSIntroduced in 1977, the targa-topped Ferrari 308 GTS followed the coupe model, namely Ferrari 308 GTB, which was presented in 1975 at the Paris Motor Show. The targa model featured a removable center roof section and used louvered panels for the rear quarter windows. Designed by Fioravanti at Pininfarina, who had been responsible for some of the most celebrated Ferrari designs such as the Berlinetta Boxer, the Dino and the Daytona, the body of the Ferrari 308 GTS featured aggressive lines and sweeping curves. This design contrasted with the one of the Ferrari 308 GT4 2+2, on which the GTS was based. Although mechanically similar, the GTS boasted a shorter wheelbase and 4-wheel double wishbone independent suspension. The same DOHC V8 engine powered the GTS and the 1979 Ferrari 308 GTS was the last generation before a horsepower setback due to emissions rules tightening.
