This 1980 Ferrari 308 GTSi was purchased by the current owner’s father-in-law in 1988 and was passed to the current owner in 2023. Finished in Argento Auteuil over Rosso leather, the car is powered by a fuel-injected 2.9-liter quad-cam V8 linked with a five-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes a removable roof panel as well as ventilated disc brakes, 14″ alloy wheels, pop-up headlights, a gated shifter, power windows, and a Blaupunkt cassette stereo. An engine-out service in 2023 reportedly included replacing the clutch, water pump, and timing belts. This 308 GTSi shows 21k miles and is offered by the seller on behalf of the current owner with a window sticker, an owner’s manual, a tool kit, spare parts, service records, and a clean Indiana title in the owner’s name.
