Am I mad, or do these look great!

[300bhp/ton]

As the years roll by I can't help thinking these are looking better and better. The low sleek lines, the purposeful stance. And in this colour, absolutely fab looking??


Am I mad and alone on this one??

I'm not a fan, but then I do not like old cars.

They look fine....

.... until you see one parked next to a 308/328.

[tossbag]

I like them, a lot more than I like you, actually.

I'm so hurt....

[deevlash]

further proof that 99% of mid engind 2+2's look awful

[bales]

I think the proportions just look....wrong.

Not the prettiest car imo.

[Plotloss]

I like 'em, not as much as the 308GTB admittedly but they're nice.

Wish I'd bought one when they were £9K though.

[deeen]

I agree with 300, to the extent that they are the only ferrari i ever put a bid in for.

I also think the inside looks better than the 308 GTB, and that's what you see when you're driving...

Dark blue leather for me please.

[Huntsman]

I like them.

Nearly bought one for £11k about 9 years ago, but it was a mess of bad quality welding underneath, seems to have suffered a lot from tinworm. I bought a 911 instead.

Front is lovely,rear is nice, that side profile is shocking.

In summary, bit shonky looking but I would love to have it. Darker colour would help a lot I reckon.

You are not alone.

It was the first Ferrari I had a ride in. Chap I met at the pub took me for a spin in his Dad's - which he assured me he was allowed to. I only discovered that he was only 16 after the white knuckle test ride!

Agree with you for once. Way better than the usual american shi*e you normally drool over.

Slightly OT but that advert is terrible. Good pics but the text probably took all of 10 seconds to type.

I really like these for some reason! I think it's the episode of Top Gear where Hammond had one that sold it to me.

[CraigW]

Ive always loved them, so very 70's. like plotty i wish i'd got one when sub 10k.. along with...
E30 M3 & Integrale EVO


They also remind me a lot of the original countach and the original esprit a bit..

[CraigW]

that wheeler dealers car is for sale I see. I cant recall the episode clearly aside from some clever bodywork by ed.. Was it pretty sorted at the end?

There was a time, long, long ago when these could be had for less than £4k. I very nearly bought one but like most Ferrari's of this era, they were a triumph of style over substance. A mate did buy one and race it. It would have been a terrific investment as shortly after anything classic became desirable and prices went north of £25k for a while.
