1980 Ferrari 308 GTSi

Offered here is a 1980 Ferrari 308 GTSi finished in the marque's timeless Giallo over a recently restored Nero and Marrone leather interior. Introduced for the 1980 model year, the GTSi marked Ferrari's transition to Bosch K-Jetronic mechanical fuel injection, allowing the mid-engine V8 sports car to meet increasingly stringent emissions regulations while preserving the unmistakable character that made the 308 an icon of the era. Power comes from a 2.9-liter quad-cam V8 producing approximately 202 horsepower, paired with a five-speed gated manual transaxle. Showing approximately 76,636 miles, this example presents as an appealing driver-focused Ferrari that combines classic Pininfarina styling with a well-documented history of mechanical care. The car benefits from a recently refreshed interior by a Ferrari Custom Interior Shop, featuring restored Nero and Marrone leather upholstery that complements the striking yellow exterior. While the body was repainted some years ago and is described as presenting with driver-quality finish rather than concours-level execution, the emphasis has remained on maintaining the car's mechanical condition. Recent maintenance includes fresh engine oil, replacement drive belts, and new air hoses, while the seller notes the Ferrari starts easily, runs strongly, and is ready to be enjoyed. A major service completed by Scottsdale Ferrari-Maserati in 2023 included critical replacement of the timing belts and tensioner bearings, cam seals, distributor seals, valve cover gasket, accessory belts, engine oil and filter, gear oil, coolant, brake fluid, and battery, as well as rebuilding the cooling fans and addressing shift shaft oil leaks. The invoice totaled more than $12,500, underscoring the comprehensive nature of the work performed. Included in the sale are approximately 25 years of maintenance records documenting the car's long-term care, along with a set of newer tires that reportedly have substantial tread life remaining. The 308 GTSi occupies a unique place in Ferrari history, with just 1,743 examples produced over its four-year production run, and remains one of the marque's most recognizable models thanks to appearances in popular culture, most famously as Thomas Magnum's car of choice in Magnum, P.I . For enthusiasts seeking an approachable, mechanically sorted, and extensively documented Ferrari to drive and enjoy rather than preserve as a static showpiece, this GTSi represents an attractive opportunity to experience one of Maranello's defining sports cars.
