Because it is ! ONLY US market use model year and first US 328 were "86" but production and sale strated in 1985 in Europe. So this is a 328 from 1985. October I think this one
You should notice the wrong VIN number ZFFWA208000. instead of ZFFWA20B000. and note the comment : 37.500 km .................. on the odometer ! I will be interested in early document of that car and early service history ....

Blu Chiaro is rare on 328s. That car has been for sale for quite some years now: In April 2016 with 10.540 miles on the Odometer ; In September 2022 in N.Y with 10.897 on the Odometer. Not been driven a lot. Rgds
95.000 € less commissions, which is about market average for a good 328 nowadays. BUT the catalogue says, I quote: "Please note that this lot is subject to VAT on the full purchase price (both on the hammer price and commission)." With 20% VAT on hammer price and commission, at 131.100 € it doesn't make much sense to me. But that's just me. Rgds
No many comment on this thread since months ! Any have more information about the #67873 ? https://www.classiccargallery.com/details.php?id=1481
328 production started in July 85 and US models started in September 85. US requires an official model year be declared by the manufacturer for smog and safety laws among other things. Model years are declared in different ways for different reasons all over the world.
https://munsterhuis.nl/voorraad/ferrari/328/gts-ferrari-munsterhuis_occasion_080070-locatie-hengelo/benzine/1564676/ AMAZING UNIT.... Only 518 Km!!!!! and 314.950 €.... It is a 328 to be kept in a museum!
Share your thoughts on this issue. There is a 328 I am interested in but the Carfax shows minor damage in 2000. Supposedly the owner had an encounter with his garage and had an acceptable repair made. Should this be a no go or take it into consideration regarding the price, mileage, maintenance and resale?
When I was looking at cars, quite a few had some sort of minor body repair documented during their lives. I wouldn't rule out a car because of this. Inspect it and make sure that the body and paint are in acceptable condition, and that any repairs were done correctly with no shortcuts taken or corners cut (ask an expert if you don't feel qualified to inspect). Think about the future -- could you comfortably explain it to the next guy? Will you be confident enough to represent the car without any reservations? My 328 is in amazing condition, but has a few minor cosmetic issues -- it's 36 years old after all, and is a driver, not a museum car. That said, I can comfortably show all of those issues to a future buyer with no reservations. The issues would have little to no impact on valuation. Adds some charm to the car if you ask me. I think a bigger risk is with cars that have undocumented body repairs, or body repairs not disclosed by a seller. Some sellers are not forthcoming about this. Happens with BaT cars a lot, and if not for eagle-eyed community members, it might go unnoticed by a buyer. I've seen some glaring issues show up that I sure would not want to inherit when buying a car.
I agree with s219, I wouldn’t rule it out especially if you’re looking for a driver. If it’s well maintained and the repair looks good make an offer.
Well, it's a '89, so this is actually not amazing at all... After Enzo Ferrari's death in August 1988, "many" (the exact number is not known) 328s were bought new for speculation, and put away under wraps until "their value will soar to new heights". Which did not happen. We know at least 50 of theses, this is what is called a "Time Capsule" and new ones keep popping here and there, from time to time; and there must be a few more that we don't know about, sleeping like the sleeping beauty. Some have never been driven at all, having only the "delivery miles" (= the test made around Maranello to see that everything works fine, usually 100 miles / 160 kms) on the odometer. Many appear here and there, from one seller to another seller, time and again, along the years. I do love "time capsules" myself, but the equation works in a peculiar way: buy it to be driven, you'll face the cost of aditional recommissioning: change all belts, fluids, etc, etc...start it for the first time in 35 years, fix what doesn't work, etc; not impossible, as the 328 is a very sturdy machine, BUT as soon as you drive it, its market value will diminish exponentially; not a problem if you bought it to have a brand new 328 and do not give a d%ùn about the loss of value; this is something that I could do myself. But should you care about value, then you won't drive it because as soon as it has been driven, its value will plummet down. "Many" of these are still around (50? 70?), so this one is just "another time capsule", nothing extraordinary for a '89 328: you will seeat least 50 like this, probably more, if you look carefully at the adds; usually the same that has been seen all along the years, just changing hands, not been driven. For instance, 82112, a brand new '89 GTB with only the delivery miles (= 160 kms on the odo) has been kept under wraps by the french importer Charles Pozzi for years (with two yellow/black '89 GTSs also); #82112 was sold to a Japanese collector ten years ago. So nothing amazing here actually; just another '89 328 time capsule... Rgds Revised list of known “very low mileage” or “time capsules” 328s in November 2020: 47 cars To qualify, cars must have: - less than 10.000 kms (or circa 6.250 miles, give or take a few miles more…) on the odometer, - a chassis number “post #77000” so as to have been delivered “about” August 1988 or after (Enzo Ferrari’s death, start of speculation).

These cars had a lot of custom options for interior colors. I've seen red carpet with crema interior and red piping. Looked fantastic.
