This post got me thinking that I had various tables of 308 data that I had retreived from the net, but had not tied together. Now, I'f I could only break this down to colors per year...

So, is this a "girls only" affair or did my invitation just get lost in the mail?

Cool Article!
Passing on my love of cars to my 14 year old daughter has been a great joy. Real guys like real women. Always have, always will.

Nika,

Robert Retzlaff, on his 308 GTB Register website, indicates that 733 308 GTSs were produced in 1985.

Hi Nika, got this info off of Wade's site:
GTS - GTB
1982 - 185 - 84
1983 - 871 - 204
1984 - 1253 - 259
1985 - 733 - 201
TOTAL - 3042 - 748

You would have to contact someone (Shannon LaBianco) @ FNA to find out how many were made in a certain color. I was able to find out that in 1984 there were 24 GTS QVs made in Nero Metallica. Tommy Cosgrove has one, I have one too. I am thinking that there were not too many made in 85 in Gaillo. Please let us know what you find out.

Nika,

The total amount of 308 GTS QV built from 1982 to 1985 were 3042 according to Bluemel.
How many of these cars were produced in 1985 alone I couldn�t find out though, sorry...
Hope this could help at least a little bit!
For colour numbers you should perhaps just sent a mail to Ferrari, Italy. Normally they are quite friendly although their english is sometimes very italian :-)



Con saluiti cordialissimi,
Jens Haller

Nika

don't know if this helps to track the info down

Total built between 1977 and 1985
8,004

First serial no built in 1985 55187
Last Serial no built in 1985 58751

The above is according to Ferrari UK, Keith Blumels book suggests the last 308QV was serial number 59265...confusing

Note serial numbers in the above range will also have been used for 400i's, 308GTB's,Mondials,288GTO's and Testarossas

I need to research how many 1985 308 GTS were built...and even how many were in yellow?

Somehow I remember this being posted a while back - it would greatly help my research for an article

Thank you
