    My husband is great at this game. He says it's a Karmann Ghia.

    Karmann Ghia was my first reaction too.

    Either that or a 300SL. :eek:

    I don't know what it is, but I disagree with all of you.
    The wheel arches are too round to be a K Ghia or an Isabella.
    Looks Italian to me, but what do I know?

    I agree. But I think the front arches are too big to be the little Alfa. This is way out of the ballpark, but I'm wondering Fiat OttoVu - although the roof line looks too flat.

    I tried looking on Google earth but couldn't locate it. The 328 is parked next to a golf course and the listing was supposedly from Galway NY. Only a couple courses show up there but it could have been from another nearby town. http://bringatrailer.com/listing/1986-ferrari-328-gts-4/

    I like playing sleuth.

    I'm voting alongside you for some variant of the Giulietta... Although the front wheel wells look different, the rest seems to fit.

    It's not a golf course, it's a park or open land. Look at the photos of some of his other auctions.

    I can't tell the exact shape of the taillights in the pic posted, but something about the combination of what those appear look like, plus the ridge above the license plate do not look right for it to be a KG.

    I think the back slopes down too much to be a KG.
