Used Ferrari 308 for Sale near Roanoke, VA

Like a Jaguar and Alfa Romeo and Porsche 911, everyone enthusiast should own or have owned a Ferrari at some point. Even though prices are climbing back up, a 308 still represents the quintessential starter Ferrari. Its looks still turn heads, there's the sound of a nicely tuned V8 behind your ears, and it walks the walk. It doesn't have close to the performance of the modern cars, particularly the 2-valve injected cars of 1980-1982, but it has a soul. Something that transcends its stats and is more a sense of the history that preceded it. It comes up through the road into the wheel, pedals and shifter and finds its way under your skin.

Stunning Italian design, beautifuly engineered and built. Art on wheels! The performance is still up there where it should be, and P-car drivers commonly back off when they see the badge (scheisters!) In reality, the HP figures are not that impressive by today's standards, but a perfect chassis compensates for that, and it will still run away from most. Even though she's Italian, the build quility is excellent, apart from the crappy fusebox and relays. It hasn't given me much grief, but the pop-up headlights do 'wink' on occasion. It;s a Ferrari, and it will never be cheap to drive. Parts are expensive, and a properly carried out 30k km service is an engine-out operation. Timing belts (2) MUST be done evry 3 years. It is, however, not overly complicated, and if you're so inclined, you can carry out the work yourself. In all, the 308 is a very rewarding car to own. Values have been stable/increasing (at least in SA) which compensates for the cost of maintenance. It's somewhat limited in its' use, as you can't leave it behind just anywhere, but every kilometer you're travelling in it is an occasion, and there is always a grin on your face.

This is the single most amazing car I have ever experienced. The iconic supercar design of the 1970s and 80s lives and breathes in my garage. It makes the most amazing sounds and emits the smells that only hand-stitched Italian leather can. The only drawback to this car is that it feels underpowered compared to more modern cars. The perfectly balanced handling more than makes up for any power shortcomings and there are kits and tuners who can definitely raise that bar. Cruising around town I quickly realize that this car is the star and I am only a passenger along for the ride. I dont know that I have had a single drive where I didnt get a positive thumbs up or cell phone cameras popping up everywhere. Its simply an amazing experience.

Most fun car I have ever owned. Performance and handling is incredible. All the maintenance is up to date and as Ferrari goes it is the less expensive to work on because of the era of car with no computer. Get in it and have fun is my claim.

There is nothing to dislike, i wanted one of these when i first saw Magnum. Sadly its gone now but it was the best car i ever owned. This car looked sexy, and everyone looked at you. the style & Performace was fab !!
