Hello chaps, I am pleased to announce that during the traditional "sport & collection" which will take place in spring 2015 on the circuit of the "Val de Vienne" (France), will be celebrated the 40th anniversary of the Ferrari 308 with some special events dedicated 308 assignments to include dedicated tracks. Hope to see you there, the enrollment records will soon be downloadable here : Sport et Collection - 500 Ferrari Contre le cancer - Le site Officiel Feel free to contact me with any questions on this post or PM. See you soon.
Perhaps we should seek events worldwide - particularly in October to commemorate the unveiling at the Paris Motor Show (a quick google does not yield the exact date - anyone ?)
In now days, in the Paris motor show, as far as I know they do not commemorate anything ... By the way, it is an excellent opportunity to have a great event in the "Sport et Collection" !!! We have two original cars presented in October 1975 : a "Giallo Fly" one on Pozzi area and an "Azzurro metalizzato" on Pininfarina one. Coming as the descent of the 206/246 but with a V8, the 308 is, with its fabulous design and awsome driving experience, one of the best know Ferrari ! Hope having you in France in next summer
Here is the Frist 308 display at the 1973 Paris motor show Still under restoration Image Unavailable, Please Login
I have a copy of the original press announcement by Ferrari for Paris. It says October 2-12. Image Unavailable, Please Login
OK so we can fix the first public appearance as Thursday October 2 - should this be regarded as the launch or were there also pictures released on Friday September 26 ?
The OP forgot to mention that he's talking about the 40th anniversary of the GTB, not the GT4. Both happen to be presented to the public at the Paris salon, albeit two years apart.
Here it is in 1975 on display in Paris and the frist 308 GT4 Is in the background And now display at the Bertone Image Unavailable, Please Login
I was told is was on loan to Bertone to display The car was owned by Ferrari SEFAC till sold directly to customer
We should have a nation wide or perhaps a state wide 308 40th anniversary celebration here next year. Anyone want to plan or organize it? We will give full support.
I believe that the it will be at Monteray/Pebble Beach 2015 I would have been 2014 but Maserati 100 years trump it Contact FCA pacific region
Thanks for your answers ! You are right : GT4 was born before but 1975 is for the GTB Of course, all the GT4 are welcome in "Sport et collection" with 308 GTB 40 th anniversary and will have a dedicated parking near the GTB/GTS Kind regards.
