    This was at the local car show last night.

    strange color for a 308. I have never seen one ever in this color before.

    I like the color, but for me, the combination of the window half-down and the Scuderia sticker being placed too low, it looks as if the entire car is drooping. . . or is it just me?

    A 'rare' colour is anything other than Rosso Corsa. :)

    The dark interior looks quite nice. Is that the actually color and if so, does anyone know its name?

    Maybe black or silver are kind of common but you're right after that... Even yellow is kind of rare.

    Wow, cool pics, weird colours, but you know, the shape of the 308 makes any colour look okay, even the weird ones!! Don't forget that lime green one, even that looks cool!! For me the weirdest one of tonight's pics is that sort of light butterschotch, never saw that one before! Purple is different, still looks okay, definitely NOT factory though...............was it?

    I agree. It's just real hard to make that design look bad no matter what color it is.

    This was my first Ferrari #33347. Rosso Dino I think they called it. I called it Orange. It was a 1981 and only 7 years old when I had it. My current 308 is a 1985. A 23 year old car is a whole different ballgame.

    No, it's not just you. Really like the color, think that it would look great on a 550.

    Starting to think all the darker colours suit the targa roofed cars more.

    My second Saab was that color (+/-). I've always loved deep reds, maroons, and burgundies.

    I agree, it would be a great color on a 550 or 575. Not bad on 308, although the 308 is so gorgeous it even looks stunning in white!
