1980 Ferrari 308 User Reviews

Great little car. Handling is very neutral and actually more fun with less than max grip tires. Engine has a sweet song although power is down compared to something like my C5 vette. People poo-poo 2-valve injected models but they stay in tune and are super easy to work on. I do all my own mechanical work and the car is simple. Reliability is good once sorted. Ferraris are tough little buggers. Mine has 88,000 miles and going strong. Watch for rust but about typical for Euro stuff of the same vintage. It is really an event to drive one and mine gets driven several times a week in good weather. They should be driven - often. More roomy than you might expect and comfortable. I have driven on 1,100 mile trips. Parts are surprisingly available and not outrageous priced if you sniff around. I can change clutch in under an hour. Overall, a very pleasant owning and driving experience. I was shocked at price jump in winter of 2015 (good and bad).
