Donny, I was told by someone in our car club that you can get a copy of the buildsheets for your car from the factory. But they aren't real cheap. About US$400, I'm led to believe. You may also want to check out the Ferrari owners website. They may be able to give information on your car as well. |

It is an 84 QV, so I guess, from Stephen's reply, it could be original.
Does anyone know if Ferrari can be contacted to list build specs of the car from the VIN?
Thanks |

It probably was added. However it was possible to order a Ferrari with some unlisted options if you were willing to wait and pay. |

It may not have actually been an option but simply installed by Ferrari at the factory for one reason or another. My US 84 308 has one factory installed. I am not aware that it was an option then either. I don't really care much for it. I have the smaller US version in storage. I am going to swap it one day. |

Aside from rim width, a/c and colours were the only options. Im not sure about the spoiler but Im leaning towards non original. Rim width is even questionable, it was just something I read somewhere but have never seen it. |

My car is a US version 308, however it has a Euro front air dam. Is there any way to tell if the car came with this or was it added by the previous owner? Was it even possible to order a US car with this option? The reason I am questioning it is because the air dam needs to be repainted, but if it isn't original this might be a good time to replace it.
What were the other available options for the 308s? |
