http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1980-308-GTSI-FERRARI-/270745436829?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item3f09af829d According to Kieth Bluemels book #31309 is the first in the production run of GTSi. I own #31311, the car built right after this one. Interesting....
My GTSI is #33553 and sticker says "Sept 1980" If the first was 31309, this means that mine was the 2,244th one built. This dosen't see right...how many did they build per year?? I though that total production was only 1,795 for the GTSI. What am I doing wrong here??
Hi Frank, Two things are wrong in your calculation: 1) Only odd s/ns were used back in those days, so you shouldn´t count 31310, 31312 etc. 2) Between s/n 31309 and 33553 are not just the 308 GTSi, but also the 308 GTBi, still some carburetted 308 GTB & GTS, the BB 512, the 400i, plus the first Mondial 8´s Hope this helps a bit. Ciao, Lars T.
The first GTBi was on ebay at one point as well about a year ago #31327. Not sure it really adds much value to the car, other than a neat side note.
