    Does anyone know the where abouts of VIN 47123? I owned this Euro '83 QV when it first came out. What a great car it was!!! Red /Tan 308 GTSI QV. It had the lower front spoiler, Euro exaust, Euro Bumpers, It was FAST!!!! I sold it then never saw it again. I always search through classified adds but come up short.
    Let me know,

    Try writing to Gerald Roush or NNN (Carbon McCoy) at Ferrari Market Letter, to see if they have an info on that VIN.

    It's funny that you say it is fast as the first 308 I ever drove was a 83 euro and that's exactly what I said when I drove it. It pulled really hard and I've driven quite a few 308's since then and none came close to performing like that euro 83 did.

    I check every now and then to see if there are any ads or posts about my former '78 308 too. Mine went to the UK last I heard. 23421 if anyone knows it's whereabouts I'd be interested in knowing.

    I sent a FB Messenger to a guy named Carbon McCoy. He has built a database of as many Ferraris as he could track down. He used to be on FChat but I am not sure if he is still around.

    If you have the VIN you should be able to get the title history from CARFAX or VINCHECK. That should give you locations and whether someone is still driving it. Good luck!
