As far as 308GT4 goes, my VOTE goes to HANS!!! Everything about that car is exactly what I'd love to have in a GT4........and Newman's 308 is the GTB of my dreams, except I do not want carbs, I know I'm in the minority that way, and I would've paid Newman's price if it was an injected model. He did all my favorite upgrades on a gorgeous GTB, AWESOME Newman! As for highly modified looking 308GTB s wow, some of them are truely smile inducing, I love them all! Worst things in my own opinion, US front bumpers and smaller than 16" rims, otherwise they're all spectacular looking. I love the b over the s for looks. Cheers everyone and thanks to all for posting these fantastic pictures, keep them coming!
Biggest pro: it allows you to buy some proper tires for it, which in turn make it a MUCH better car. Really, a significant part of what makes the modern Ferrari's go faster on the twisty roads is in the tires. And, to sort of semi-justify it, look what the 1979 parts manual for the GT4 shows as options: 16 inch wheels in this style! (okay, mine is a 1974, but this was enough to satisfy my inner purist...)

Didnt know that 16 inch wheels were an option, from a traditionalist perspective this makes me feel better about the possibility of buying them in the future.
I was getting ready to start the poll, but the thread keeps on going!!! I love it!! Keep 'em coming and we will start the poll in the not too distant future. Keep on voting, then I will narrow it down to the ones that get the most votes and we will have a runoff. PDG
HMMMMMM....It appears that a certain little GT4 is leading the pack there. 25,000 miles in 3 years. JIM
OK so red and tan cars are a dime a dozen so thought I'd try and distract you with our beautiful Australian roads & scenery. I also claim the mantel of the earliest GTB dry sump shown so far (chassis #19285, assembly #19, April 76). Credit to 98Octane Photography for the last shot.

Hmmm, you've got me there Jim - just. I'm at 50,000 km (32,000 miles) in 4 years (of which 9 months at the paint shop). And who said that 1970's Italian cars are too unreliable to be really driven?
thank you Hans - mine is a 76 and i really dont like the tires i have now. i think i will have a look for 16 inch wheels. what would be a realistic price for a set in good condition?
Cream of the crop. I do want to see more 308 race cars however! Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
