The vehicle is most likely unsafe. I wonder if they realize all the re-enforcing it would need. There is a reason a gts is almost 300 .lbs heavier than a gtb. And if that aint a reason to hate it then its just ugly!!! |

Theres probably a lot of chassis flex. I doubt whoever did this bothered to add chassis braces. |

undoubtedly, the ugliest 308 I have ever seen...what was once a classic shape is now pure junk...how can anyone do that? How can anyone sell that, with such blatant ignorance? |

I saw another 308 this weekend that must have once been owned by this "Naroli" guy only he mispelled his name when he signed this one he spelled it "Nardi" |

Frank, Maybe Naroli was thinking "If I engrave my name on the steering wheel maybe I can get rid of this pile of sh-t." |

Simple Peter, It's called "MONEY." I knew a guy once who owned a nice reputable car dealership. He always said he would sell his wife if he could put "white walls on her." Just make the sale. |

I think the worst thing out of all of this (besides the car), is that this car is for sale by Kruse International, a supposedly reputable and knowledgable car-sales outfit. How they can write that garbage in the vehicle description is beyond belief... |

uh, Mr Naroli? Enzo just contacted me through a medium. He's going to kick your ass. I especially like the nice door covering the gas cap. |

I think the name engraving thing is a pretty common thing in some the of the 308GTSi's yesterday when I was working on my clutch at my mechanics shop there was two GTSi's in there and both had this name engraved on the steering wheel. I am pretty sure it is not the owners name! Or else he owned a hell of a lot of 308GTSi's!! |

Can we get in touch with " E Naroli" and ask him what he was thinking when he had his name engraved on the steering wheel? LOL |

Yeah I thought that was pretty funny too. Something like that makes you question anything else they say about the car. |

From the text: "This car was built for E. Naroli, and his name is engraved in the steering wheel" ?!?! The sterring wheel has "Nardi" engraved... the maker of the wheel. JEEEEEZZZ! |

I'd be embarrassed to be seen in that car! Might as well put a coffee can exhaust on it while you're at it. |

This make you think how much more the frame will flex. Also check the body for rust. This car may have a bunch of it. |

Nasty looking top. Doesn't look you can drive with it on. Why would anyone chop the top off a GTS? |
