Dunno, he might have to drive across the island for a couple of 6-packs of Old Dusseldorf to relax properly. :lol:

Won't be in a Ferrari though :wink:.

Just playing.

I agree with Carmen. I think we should all calm down and wait for the pictures.......
Higgins: You've washed the car?! How extraordinary. Why would you do such a thing?

Have I mentioned how much I love this car? It's perfect in so many ways. To think of TM in a, gag, 928 soap bar over a 308...unthinkable.

Coops,
I'm right with you, buddy. I think that I check eBay Motors at least 3 times a week to see if there are any new auctions for 308's.

I sit there, look at the pictures, and dream :).


One day, I will have the Ferrari. Oh yes, I will have it :D.

Coops and WWMD, you both are obvioulsy gentlemen and scholars..........The 308 & 328's are by far my favorite Ferrari's and even my favorite car of all time. Of course Christy Brinkley and the blondes look great in the car, but I can only imagine how much smarter, better looking, younger, more talented and just an over all credit to mankind we would be in one.........LOL!

Guys: I still never figured out how to post pics to this site but you can check out a couple of pics from my MySpace site:

myspace.com/zplate

I put 800 miles on it since I got in last May. I have not really pushed it all that hard...Sunday drives from time to time. But that sucker does move on the highway.

Hi zplate,

Do you still have the 308?
Fill us in on any issues you've had with the car.
Do you have any recent pics (assuming you still have it)?

Wow, so cool. I, too, love the 308 and its line, up to the F355F1. With the 360, they changed it too much. But, I agree that the 308 was the best in the line.

Agreed. 308, 328 have great lines. However, Ferrari is returning to those lines with the 458.
