Istorie
The 308 GT4 Dino represented several firsts for the company. It was the first and only time that Bertone was to style a road-going production Ferrari, and as such its wedge shape is distinctly different than the Pininfarina styled cars that came before and after it. It was also their first mid-engined 2+2. Finally, the Dino 308 GT4 represented Ferrari’s first use of a V-8 in a road car.
Full description
The Dino 308 GT4 and 208 GT4 were mid-engined V8 2+2 cars built by Ferrari. The Dino 308 GT4 was introduced in 1973 and supplemented by the 208 GT4 in 1975. The cars were sold with Dino badging (continuing the Dino brand to differentiate non-V12 Ferrari) until May 1976, when they received Ferrari badging. The GT4 was replaced by the Mondial 8 in 1980 after a production run of 2,826 vehicles.
Dino was Enzo Ferrari's beloved son who passed tragically in 1956 and his name was considered to honor his memory on the models it was placed.

The Ferrari Dino 308 GT4 2-door coupe had 2+2 seating and was the last Dino model. It came equipped with air conditioning, power antenna, leather steering wheel, limited-slip differential, power windows, rear defroster, and tinted glass. The dual overhead cam eight-cylinder engine displaced 2,926 cc and offered 240 horsepower. It had a five-speed manual transmission in the rear transaxle and disc brakes.
This particular example is a very original car that was put into storage for the past 22 years after it was given a complete motor and gearbox rebuild.
This car has covered 92.475 km.
