Ferrari 328 GTS '89 1989

General description : Post-update 328: ABS, concave rims, and a good air conditioning system American vehicle Comes with all manuals and maintenance booklet Very fair price compared to the market offer The Ferrari 328 was introduced in 1985 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It was the successor to the Ferrari 308. According to Ferrari, the 308 and 328 are separate models, although many consider as being a family. The design extrudes Ferrari trademark and was done by Pininfarina. The engine specifications make adrenaline pump through the veins. The 328’ V8 was naturally aspirated, also Ferrari’s last naturally aspirated V8-powered two-seater. The name is easy to decipher: the ‘32’ represents the engine capacity, which increased from 3.0 litres in the 308 to 3.2 litres in the 328. The ‘8’ represents the number of cylinders, forming a V. The engine capacity upgrade makes the engine produce 20 more hp - 270 hp - compared to its predecessor. These 270 hp make the car speed up to maximum 267 kilometres an hour (166 mph) and it accelerates from 0 km/h to 100 km/h (0-60 mph) in less than six seconds. These specifications made it one of the fastest cars available at the time, and it can still compete with modern sports cars. The initial Pininfarina 308 design was slightly reworked, production remained with the Italian coachbuilder Scaglietti, which handcrafted the 328’s bodywork. The 328 ‘aerodynamicalised’, as that is what Ferrari wanted. The front bumper was rounder and the car’s suspension came closer to ground floor in order to minimalize air friction. The flying buttresses also provided more aerodynamics and connected the roof to the rear end. The 328 was offered in two finishes. On the one hand, there was the GTS - or Gran Turismo Spider - a targa-bodied 328 with a removable top and a cockpit that protect the passengers even at high speeds. On the other hand, there was the GTB, which was a regular berlinetta boasting the same design, only the top was not removable. Production ended in 1989 and five times more 328 GTS’s were sold than 328 GTB’s. Also a turbo powered edition was designed and only available Italy as the taxes were astronomically high for sports cars with high-capacity engines In 1988, an update was made, nothing was changed mechanically, as the initial design could not be improved. ABS was available as an option, new rims were designed, and the air conditioning system was improved. Small improvements were also made to the interior, the seats were more welcoming than before and they provided better side support, also a new steering wheel was designed. Production of the 328 stopped in 1989. In total, approximately 6,000 GTS’s and approximately 1,200 GTB’s were manufactured. It was Enzo Ferrari’s last launched Ferrari before he died in 1988. For this reason - and the fact that this Ferrari is an exceedingly reliable car - demand for this car is very high. High demand results to high rates, this car is - and will be - a good investment one will never regret, besides that it is a breath-taking car with even more breath-taking performance.

About Ferrari
The first Ferrari road car was the 125 S introduced in 1947 and powered by a 1.5 L V12 engine, right?
Well it's not quite that simple, Ferrari did in fact produce e Tipo 815, in 1940. Tipo 815 was designed by ex-Alfa Romeo engineers Alberto Massimino and Vittorio Bellentani and by Enrico Nardi under Enzo's company but legal issues with the former associate Alfa Romeo prevented Ferrari from launching the Ferrari marque at that point.

Enzo did produce a series of fine road cars in the 50's and 60's but they were merely to finance his true passion racing, wheather GT/Sports car or Grand Prix. The 50's saw the birth of Ferrari's most memorable cars, 250 GTB (tour de France) 250 Testa Rossa, 250 GT swb just to name a few.

Under the surface tension was growing though. In November 1961 long-time sales manager Girolamo Gardini made an ultimatum to Enzo: if tensions continued, he would leave the company. As a result, Gardini was ousted, as well as Scuderia Ferrari manager Romolo Tavoni, chief engineer Carlo Chiti, experimental sports car development chief Giotto Bizzarrini, and a number of others who stood by them.
Without Chiti and Bizzarrini the development of what was to become the most quintessential Ferrari and today the world's most expensive car, 250 GTO, was at a pivoting point. 250 GTO project was saved by a young engineer Mauro Forghieri and long-time racing bodyman Sergio Scaglietti who stepped in and took over the program with known results.

In addition to 250 GTO, Ferrari launced such master pieces as 250 LM, 250P, 275 GTB, 365 GTB/4 "Daytona" during the the 60's
By the late 60's Ferrari's prototypes' success came to a sudden halt by a new competitor, GT40. Ford turned to Lola to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after Enzo had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that gave Ferrari some heavy hits in Le Mans 24 to come.
By the end of the 60's FIAT purchased 50% of the company, starting a development that has led to a new mass-produced era of Ferraris.
