Introduction
Imagine a radiant day in the Alps, surrounded by majestic peaks and endless valleys. Amidst this timeless landscape shines a classic beauty, adorned in the rare and elegant Marrone Colorado paintwork. The 1977 Ferrari 308 GTS, European specification, takes you back to an era when driving was synonymous with pure passion, elegance, and adventure. Its flowing lines and iconic targa roof evoke nostalgia and invite you on unforgettable journeys.

History
The Ferrari 308 GTS debuted in 1977 as the open-top variant of the popular 308 GTB. Designed by the legendary Pininfarina studio and expertly built by Carrozzeria Scaglietti, the 308 series represented the pinnacle of Italian sports car craftsmanship. The European version notably differed from its American counterpart, offering a more powerful engine and a more authentic driving experience due to less restrictive emissions and safety regulations. Its 3.0-liter V8 engine, equipped with four twin Weber carburetors, produced an impressive 255 horsepower, capturing the hearts of many automotive enthusiasts.

About this car
This exceptional Ferrari 308 GTS was first delivered new in Munich in 1977 and remained faithfully with its original owner until 2005, granting it a uniquely valuable history. The car comes with exceptionally comprehensive documentation, including original purchase invoices, service booklets, and detailed maintenance records. It recently underwent extensive servicing at Mugello Engineering, leaving it in excellent technical condition and fully prepared for enjoyment. Its rare Marrone Colorado paint and distinctively European appearance—without the oversized bumpers and prominent side markers typical of U.S. models—further enhance its nostalgic charm.

Driving Experience
Imagine settling behind the wheel for a nostalgic road trip through the Alps, back to the golden era of the 1970s. The Ferrari 308 GTS welcomes you with its classic leather interior, analog gauges, and subtle scent of history. When the powerful V8 engine awakens, the deep, authentic sound of its four twin Weber carburetors fills the mountain air. Each curve and gearshift brings you closer to the essence of driving as it was originally intended—pure and filled with emotion. With the targa roof open, you feel the fresh mountain breeze, hear the engine’s echo bouncing off the rocky walls, and experience the pure freedom and nostalgic romance of a classic Ferrari in its natural environment. Driving this Ferrari 308 GTS is not just a journey through the Alps; it's a journey back in time to the roots of pure driving pleasure.
