    Very nice! Also a nice looking Lancia Intergrale in the backround in the classic Martini colours.

    I'm really becoming a HUGE fan of the 288 GTO...if only I had the garage space. Oh yea, and the money to purchase one.

    The word damage refers to the resale price/authenticity of the car not as in it's damaged /wrecked, I used the word modified (it is and un-original), that's my definition of it. Sorry for any confusion. I get sick to my stomach when I see people do this to 288's btw. You'll figure it out.

    And, this was a factory-authorized / customer request option for the 288 when new, IIRC :)

    So, there should be no "foul" there for a 288 having those pipes.

    WALTER ---

    Do have pics of the blue? 308/328 that's backed up to it (the GTO)? Is there anything "special" about that one, I'm curious?

    The funny thing about owning a 288 GTO is that it makes you appreciate an F40 even more!

    Ansa provided Megaphones for the 288 GTO when the cars were new. The original Ansa units are mild steel (not stainless) and they sound GLORIOUS!
