The 308 GT4 marked a major shift for Ferrari as its first production road car with a mid-mounted V8 engine. It was also the first and only production Ferrari styled by Bertone, with Marcello Gandini penning its distinctive angular, wedge-shaped body. Initially sold as a Dino from 1973, the car received official Ferrari badging in mid-1976, solidifying its place in the brand's lineage.
Collectors are drawn to the GT4 for its unique Gandini design and its status as a relatively accessible entry into 1970s Ferrari ownership. The 2+2 seating configuration offers more practicality than its 2-seat contemporaries, and the 3.0L V8 provides a thrilling driving experience and soundtrack. It's a significant car that connects the earlier Dino 246 GT with the V8-powered models that would define Ferrari for decades.
For years, the GT4 was undervalued, but the market has corrected significantly. With an average sale price of $66,746 across 72 transactions, they are no longer a secret. While project cars can still be found, top-tier, well-documented examples, especially European-spec cars, now sell for well over 6 figures, with the highest recorded sale reaching $220,000.
Buying Tips
- Check for rust thoroughly in the floor pans, sills, wheel wells, and the bottom of doors and fenders.
- Demand detailed service records, paying special attention to timing belt changes, which are required every 3-5 years and can be a costly engine-out job.
- Test all electrical components, from headlights and gauges to window switches. The electrical systems, particularly on earlier cars, can be troublesome.
- Note the differences between US and European models. Euro-spec cars are often preferred for their cleaner bumper design and slight power advantage.
Prices range from $9,067 for projects to $220,000 for the best examples on the market.
