Official 308 GT4 Market Thread

Hi Phil,
My opinion is that GT4 prices should increase again next year and that there is decent margin. I do not think it is unreasonable to see nice examples in the 150,000 € region next year. With prices going up, many bad examples have come on the market pressuring prices down. The market has to absorb these models which (rightly) need to be sold at lower price. Another italian car in a pretty similar situation is the Alfa Montreal. Since prices have gone up, many ugly ones have come up and market prices have go a little bit down as a result, but the nicest models are rare and sell for very high price. And because these cars were so cheap at some point many have been moltested or neglected. So it may take some time for market to absorb these examples. In addition winter time historically is never good for the market. It is the spring period and the first classic fairs that will set the tone.
In any case, if you have nice example and can afford to wait, then you should keep the car. I think it is more a mid-term investment. Like for many cars, the golden era has passed!
Just my modest opinion.

 

So do I.

The whole F-Car market is standing still this times. There have been "two or three" sales underestimated at auctions, the rising speed has slowed down, but IMO in spring the prices will rise again.

 

Gullwing Motors has it now listed for $34,750.

 

Interesting. Thank you.

Mine is a '74 UK car in really nice solid and honest condition, with a good service history going back around 30 years. It isn't concourse, but it is in excellent condition, so probably worth holding on to.

I bought my Mondial from them and had them service it they are good people.

 

Hi Markus, I would like to believe the market will continue to rise, but with the reality of the world economy, oil prices and generally a complete lack of confidence in the economic future, I think we have seen the peak pricing and are now in for a sustained decline in prices. How do I know...?, I don't. Just my 2c worth.

 

It will be interesting to see where the bidding on this latest eBay GT4 goes!

 

Fairly ambitious,I'd have thought....

Classic Throttle Shop - 1978 Ferrari Dino 308 GT4

 

looks nice. Ive never noticed the recessed gear shift like that on a GT4. Have I not been paying attention or is that custom?

 

Regarding the centre console?
Standard on Aussie cars,perhaps a Left to Right conversion thing at the factory.
Mine is like that.

Just had a look at GT4 images on google,looks like I maybe correct.

 

Nice but leather does not correspond to the original one and not perfectly tense and you can see that straight away. The Connolly Vaumol is very different from this normal leather. But seems nice apart from that.

 

Mine's a RHD UK car and it's the same as that.

Paul

 

wow I can't believe I never noticed that.

 

It just amazes me that these cars were under-appreciated for so long. I mean, *look* at this stance - what's not to like?!

I'm pretty sure I looked at this same car (at forza) yrs ago. It needed a major and was missing the rear brake calipers. I think the engine does have ss valves-I know at least the top end was rebuilt. Somebody must have bought it and gave up on that body work, and truthfully to do it right will take either a lot of elbow grease or a good lump of $$. SS valves would make this real attractive if you can do the body/paint yourself

 

Yup-love that 250 swb! (at least I think that's what the pic above is)

I'm getting a euro gt4 eventually. I just couldn't cut up the back of my car to get that rear bumper-and the boxer paint hides them but man the euros look good-esp in non red, my opinion

Of course this one looks pretty damn good in red

 

A Ferrari designed by Gandini; what's not to like?

 

I hear ya... Considering the same.

 

A good Euro is coming up soon, great time for those with US dollars to get it at a Canadian price

And another one on eBay

 

FIRST IN CLASS at Cavalino Classic ????????????

At that moment I definitely know, that the judges are totaly blind !

That is a condition 3 car - not more !

 

This one's just come on the market here in the UK and looks to be a nice early example:

Ferrari 308 GT4 Dino |

Although it's shown as POA, it's priced elsewhere at £58k, which is about US$87k, so it's strong money for a GT4, but pleasing to see as it is very similar to mine in many respects e.g. condition, mileage, year.

Paul

 

Did early GT4's have factory sunroofs?

 

I have no idea I'm afraid, mine certainly doesn't, but that means nothing.

 

Pretty sure it was just Series II US
