    Conventional wisdom seems to say that if it's not Euro, then it's not a "pure" example.

    Nice to see so many proudly displayed U.S. spec cars in this thread.

    I love the interior color of your 308. What color is that? Thanks

    You'll have to buy the seats and deep spoiler (one in FerrariAds now) but my #20405 (1976) is headed for the paint booth.

    You want red metallic (Rosso Rubino) or standard "boring red"???? :D :D

    New clutch going in now, brudda, Amanda wanted a Saturn Sky.

    They are good solid cars, but the oldest ones are starting to show signs of age....IMO

    Lots of work to keep "perfect".....

    It would be interesting to shift this thread from the pure asthetics to the idea in the original title "optimum gt design ever". As a GT car, I would say that a small mid engine design is never best for long distance touring. For short trips on the back roads, a Dino or 308 is hard to beat. It's not really a full on sports car either. I think it's usability is a good all around compromise between the two with one of Farina's all time great shapes.

    The 308 GT4 is the optimum GT "design" ever as it is a 4 seater. The GTB on the other hand from a design point of view is space inefficient as only 2 can sit in it.

    If only the market would agree.
    It's always power over style.
