If your thinking of the 84 for $34k that one might be worth it. It is in showroom new condition from what I saw.

My absolute favorite classic Ferrari is the 308 GTS, second favorite might be the 365 GTS/4. Ferrari has lost alot of their magic, the 458 and F12 are very cool cars but the new F70 with it's stupid name is seriously jumping the shark.

IF there's an STI BRZ, we may see a 20-30hp bump thanks to a more free-flowing exhaust, and a more aggressive tune from the factory. I'd also assume there'd be some suspension upgrades, and a big, dumbass wing. Again, this is all up in the air.

That's news to me. I know the new turbo engine is using Subaru's own DI system. Where did you read that, exactly?

If you think that's bad, I use Disney quotes all the time.

The 308 is amazing to drive it does have its flaws like the pedal positions being way to far right and power steering would have been nice but once you start it and put it in gear that all goes away.

Looks like it's not for sure. I did see another article saying a different di or injection system would be used, probably some speculation also. However since subaru builds these cars, not impossible. I'd like see a big brake kit / rims / suspension mild type model. I guess 2015 maybe?


this looked very nice http://bringatrailer.com/2012/12/05/...rrari-308-gt4/
Nononono, that's the injectors being changed from Denso to Hitachi. Notice that WoW mentioned DI injectors and dual spray injectors, meaning it was implied that the D4S will still be used. I read that thread a long time ago so it's nothing I haven't seen before.

No announcement thus far from Geneva. So it doesn't look like we might see the STi version for quite sometime.
