Cruising with an '83 308 GTS, like a real throwback in time!

You're extremely observant!

I added couple more pics above. For me at 45, these two cars epitomized the 80s, with every teen like myself lusting for them.
I drove the 308 GTS QV, it had only 20k on the clock. I must say, it was an absolute blast to drive. Down on power and handling compared to mine, but a lot of fun, none the less. My friend also drove mine and couldn't get over how much fun it was and how solid w/ 80k on the clock. He said it's a "tank". haha You just can't beat the old cars, nothing like the driving experience......

Exactly, we were also getting references to "against all odds" when Woods and Bridges had the 308 / 911 race. Colors were exactly opposite in that race, 308 was blk / blk.

Ah what the heck, here's the link!

Nice! What's stats on your 308? Is it a qv and how many miles, etc?
Here's a pic of my "Italian Stallion", although a little more modern than yours. haha
I'm seriously considering getting a TR from the 90s though.....

Sarg

It's not a qv
Just turned 30,000 miles
Full history from day 1 to date.
Original books, window sticker, tools.
A fun car with very few headaches.
I had a TR a few years ago. Also was a great car.
