The Ferrari 308 GTB berlinetta and targa topped 308 GTS are V8 mid-engined, -seater sports cars manufactured by the Italian company Ferrari from 1975 to 1985. The 308 replaced the Dino 246 GT and GTS in 1975 and was updated as the 328 in 1985. The similar 208 GTB and GTS were equipped with a smaller initially naturally aspirated, ater turbocharged 2-litre engine, nd sold mostly in Italy.

The 308 had a tube frame with separate body. The 308 GTB/GTS and GT4 were mechanically similar, nd also shared much with the original Dino. Both 308s sit on the same tube platform, owever the GT4—being a 2+2—has a longer wheelbase. The engine was a V8 of a 90 degree configuration, ith belt-driven twin overhead camshafts per cylinder bank. It was transversely mounted in unit with the transaxle transmission assembly, hich was below and to the rear of the engine's sump. All models used a fully synchromesh[2] 5-speed manual and a clutch-type limited slip differential. Suspension was all-independent, omprising double wishbones, oaxial coil springs and hydraulic dampers, nd anti-roll bars on both axles; four wheel vented disc brakes were also fitted. Steering was unassisted rack and pinion.

The 308's body was designed by Pininfarina's Leonardo Fioravanti, ho had been responsible for some of Ferrari's most celebrated shapes to date such as the Daytona, he Dino and the Berlinetta Boxer. The 308 used elements of these shapes to create something very much in contrast with the angular GT4. GTS models featured a removable roof panel with grained satin black finish, hich could be stowed in a vinyl cover behind the seats when not in use.

The 288 GTO introduced in 1984 is considered as the first Ferrari supercar. The 288 borrowed much of the styling from the European 308 GTB QV of the previous year, 983: it is also powered by a similar debored 2.8-litre V8 (but with turbochargers), t retained the general bodywork lines with extended wheelarches, ifferent side air vents, nd bigger rear spoiler, onger (5 inch) wheelbase, nd the central tubular space-frame chassis.
