Here's a short article on one gentleman driver in Canada's love affair with his 208 GT4. Includes some observations on market value (or lack thereof). Humble Ferrari owner and the love for his affordable, slow-to-appreciate Dino - The Globe and Mail Rgds, Mark
Norbert is a great guy. I've met him many times in the paddock at Mosport and at Ferrari events. Always gracious and loves talking cars.

no affiliation, but really interesting low mileage car, love the color and I hope it's left in its paint if original. Ferrari 308 | eBay Image Unavailable, Please Login
Agree, personal taste but i'm biased towards non red gt4's. Here's a bianco 75 Euro in Vermont. When did the smaller wheel caps come in? I would have guessed a75 should have the large flat hub caps (like in my signature picture) covering the lug bolts with the Dino bagde in the centre (same as a 246 rim). These are different and wont fit the flat caps or the 246 dress rings. Later wheels? The original space saver spare is cool, love on of those. Asking $110,000 for the record.

I have read a few of the latter pages of this thread. What are the thoughts on verde pina (green), it wouldn't be my first choice but the car in question is a fully restored 1973 Dino GT4, everything has been done, engine rebuilt top to bottom, gearbox, suspension and its really an outstanding car but I am not too sold on the colour. BUT reading the enthusiasm here for these cars in terms of the way they drive has swung me back again, it really seems these GT4's are massively under appreciated as drivers cars.
Just had $8,000 of engine work done on mine last summer. You could eat of the thing. Belts, etc. at Sphere in Houston. They really do great work. Still has original jack, books, a set of tools, original muffler and updated A/C so it cools you really good, and electronic ignition with the original parts kept if someone wanted to put it all back original.

This one is dripping with cash, STARTING at $100K Ferrari 308 Dino 308 GT4 | eBay I much prefer that front spoiler to the rather ugly stock spoiler on the earlier cars .. is it true that is some kind of factory option? Never seen that before. Can't say I care for any of the bumper variants on these cars .. Euro looks funky, US is clumsy. I have seen one with some aftermarket fiberglass bumpers which are probably the easiest on the eye but I suspect not at all functional.
Has anyone taken a close in-person look at that black GT4 offered by Beverly Hills Car? It has been up for sale for some time, I am thinking someone here has looked but passed on it. I would be interested in learning what the real issues are, those guys are not very forthcoming. Some obvious rust (which means there is probably some not obvious); car not running although engine bay looks clean; non-original bumpers and wheels (and mirrors I think). What else?
Between the timing belt cover and the frame rail where the vin# is stamped?, I'm seeing a reflective cover/plate… is this an original part, I'm only asking not for the authenticity, but for my inexperience? please define the part and its usage, thank you. And Yes its a nice looking car!
I don't see what you are asking about - either the AC Compressor, coolant expansion tank, air intake rubber. I see a lot of shiny floor coming through, is that what you are referring to? Beautiful car!!!!
I see what you're looking at, but I think it might be the white floor tiles giving an optical illusion of a shiny metal item. Paul
Looking at the picture again, I'm not entirely convinced that it is the floor. There is rather a lot of it and I don't think you can see that much through the engine bay. Paul
What you are seeing is the floor. The right rear wheel is off the car as is the forward gravel guard in the wheel well.
