Why would you repaint a grigio car rosso corsa? I understand some prefer red over gun metal grey but surely that would hurt resale in todays climate? the interior is half baked too. Could this car be the damaged WA grigio 308 on here a few ago?

Oh wow, you could be right Rennie. I remember seeing this now you've mentioned it. Grigio and red is a pretty cool combo!! He says he changed the colours to suit himself and then sells it??
Bugger me! You're right! Look at the cocked up air filter cover and intake hose! It's the same car. He's a lying chunt! Edit: He didn't actually lie (apart from saying it has EFI), but implicit in his story was a feeling that the car was restored, not rebuilt from a smouldering wreck!
That’s right - let’s say it takes a year to fix it - so basically, he drives it for a year and then decides to sell. That doesn’t look good does it? Or perhaps the intention was always to flip it? Who knows? It’s just speculation. I don’t think there is anything wrong buying a fixer up and flipping it. However, there is something wrong if you are making a series of misrepresentations about the car and why you are selling it. Furthermore, he leaves the console in red! Yuk! Great attention to detail!!! If he takes a short cut with that, what else hasn’t been done properly? And $285k is the very top of the market for such a car. Good luck.
Naturally - I truly think grigio is a really great colour on a 308 - I bought mine because it was grigio and deliberately choose it over rosso corsa also available at time - but having said that, a 308 looks fantastic in any of the factory colours (except Verde germoglio - lime green), so why wouldn’t you keep the original colour. I also think the market now favor's original hues over colour changes.
Yeah that's Vetro money for slapped together, colour changed UK car!! Goodness knows what its like underneath. Really don't know what he's thinking with that pricing. He'd be lucky to get $185k, in fact there are several on there for around that money that have been there for years!!
Of course - when I used to occasionally smoke, that was my preferred Australian brand too. And yes, I even like oro on a 308 and especially on 512 BB (see PP car's - the Modern Motor Oct 1980 cover car). https://classicthrottleshop.com/1985-ferrari-308-qv-gsti-oro-chiaro/ Admittedly, its not a colour I would spec on a 308 (blu sera or blu chiaro would be my first choice on a QV). Argento is another fantastic colour and probably my second choice. As a side note, if someone said red was their preferred and favourite colour on a 308, I understand that because it really suits the car a lot. Its THE iconic colour. P.S In Adelaide, you hardly saw a red Ferrari in the seventies and early eighties - argento, azzuro and verdes were the most common hue. In fact, the first Ferraris I saw in a show room were a argento Mondial and an azzuro 308 GTS QV (MyFazzman's car)
