GTS WOW! Have a look at this iconic Ferrari 308 GTS! Description
Only 16,827 miles Huge service performed January 2016 Beautifully
straight and tight panels Last of the carburetor models Rare red
seats with black inserts Great Ferrari sound! A look at this iconic
Ferrari and you might think of Magnum P.I ., the smash hit TV show
from the 1980's. That's because during the first season, a 1978
Ferrari 308 GTS was used just like this beauty! This car however
has one feature that makes it a very rare find. Read on! From
1975-1980, there were only 3,219 GTS models produced. The GTS used
a wet sump, 4 carburetors, naturally aspirated V8 engineone of the
last to use carburetors. With a compression ratio of 8.8:1 and 195
ft-lb of torque, this red rocket reached 150+ miles per hour
easily. Zero to 100 mph in 15 seconds. In addition, this car had
extensive maintenance performed in January 2016 (please see list
below). The exterior of this car shows very straight and tight
fitting steel body panels. The doors close with a solid sound and
fit. All the glass and mirrors are in very good condition and the
headlights swing open as if brand new. Even the valance looks well
taken care of. The interior of this icon is a beautiful surviving
gem. The vintage red leather seats feel very supple and are
accented with black leather striping, making this a very rare color
interior. Most of the 308's you see are beige or black. The same
red leather is continued on the door panels while matching red
carpet rests on the floor. The leather wrapped steering wheel shows
very little use. All the knobs, levers and switches work, are in
place, and look fantastic! This car would make Tom Selleck smile!

we're enthusiasts first. We want you to enjoy your new car from the
minute it's delivered and the trailer door drops. Before a car
leaves our shop, it's gone through comprehensively, both visually
and mechanically. We do more than just kick the tires, though: We
fill your tires with nitrogen, road test (if the weather permits us
here in Cleveland!) and clean it inside and out. We buff the paint
using a three-step process immediately before it's taken away so
that it gleams when it arrives. Every car we sell, from Sunday
drivers through the rarest exotics, is meant to be driven--get out
there! If you have any questions before, during or after the sale,
do not hesitate to contact us. It's what we're here for! Call us at
(440) 914-0000, write us at
[email protected] or stop by and
see the new shop at 6441 Davis Industrial Parkway, Solon OH 44139.
We're 26 miles from Cleveland Hopkins Airport and we can pick you
up when you come to inspect or purchase your car. We welcome any
prospective buyers, their buyer's agents or inspectors from Monday
through Friday during business hours, as well as evenings and
weekends by appointment. We're car people who love what we do, and
you'll feel it from the first time you contact us. Give the R&H
crew the opportunity to serve you: Our passion and attention to
detail set us apart! Call 440-914-0000 or email
