    So someone sent me a link to a movie called Picasso Trigger (1988). Twenty nine minutes in, a red 308 appears, and continues to appear in a few scenes after that. WARNING: there's some nudity in this film - nothing hardcore, but definitely sexual. I was wondering if anyone is able to identify the 308 - by that I mean the serial number. The movie itself is very ...'80s; that's the best way to put it. The wardrobe, the decor, the acting - not a movie that stands the test of time. There's golf, murder, boating, a Ferrari, two Porsches (one slant nose?), planes, terrible (clothed) go-go dancing scenes, more nudity, a boomerang bomb, pools, beaches, guns, explosions, exploding r/c cars, more nudity, shower nudity, pool nudity - you get the point. The 308 appears in various scenes for about 20 minutes, but that's it.

    Anyone know this car?

    That's the worst movie I've ever seen. Can't believe I watched 40 minutes of it just to see the Ferrari.

    It's at least two - and possibly three - cars. First driver close-up in 29 min shows a silver Nardi steering wheel, Vitaloni Californian (or Turbo) mirrors, and no apparent stitch patterning on door leather, making it likely a carb car. When he pulls up to the hotel, no rear spolier, but GTSi seat pattern in all one color. When he pulls up to saloon (as well as wide panning shot during first highway appearance), QV rear spolier and deep front valence. Subsequent scenes appear to use that last car, with the horse on the front grill and QV louvers on the hood.

    In conclusion, 1) I'd say at least 3 cars used, and 2) yes, it was a VERY slow day at the office:)

    That's fantastic, thank you. Now if only someone could ID the three cars.
