It seems that this is an early 308 GTS sold in the EE.UU. I would like to know the right year of this car. |

I think 308s were made from 1973 to 1985. Don't know the year of this one but it is close to this 1978 http://vea.qc.ca/vea/v/fer308gts78.jpg -- Last edit: 2006-04-18 04:42:52 |

That's the same Ferrari 308 GTS as the one that Thomas Magnum (Tom Selleck) drives in the famous TV series of the 1980's, but the first one is a 1979 |

The GTB came out in ’75 and was made of fibreglass it was replaced in ’77 with a steel car. At the same time in ’77 the GTS (convertible) was launched along side it. Although they made a few changes along the way they remained in production until replaced By the 328 in ’85. The photo isn’t clear enough or from the best angle to say exactly what year.

According to the IMDb: "The Ferrari 308 used in the movie belonged to director Hal Needham." |
