308's are slow as hell by today's standards but this is really a pristine example

I remember being at a College Park self-serve carwash at around 2am with a buddy. We were washing our cars (of course) and some dude pulled up with a gorgeous blue turbo Supra. This was in the middle of the F&F frenzy, but his car stood out for being understated. Beautiful.

I know it's stupid but I want this sooooo much more than the F355 you posted last week (or just about anything else in the thread).

A friend of mine just picked up a 308 GT4. I've never ridden in or driven one. Should be interesting. I'm not expecting much.

Damn this thread - it's got me pricing out 355s and looking into costs and procedures for DIY engine-out services

I like the 355, but I'm with you on this one. Definitely one of those in my imaginary barn-o-cars.

I did not like e looks of the 288, 308 and 328 when they were new and lightly used, but the more time passes,mother more I like them.

The 308 GT4 is a completely different beast, though. It's got a little Stratos in it; I love it.

That sort of wave design they all shared. Didn't like then, but really like it now.

I didn't even know you could still get a manual in that series C class.
