Black Widebodied Stallion on Gottis

While skimming the Ferrari classifieds on eBay Motors I stumbled upon this beautiful Koeing widebody 308 GTSi through Motoexotica. Black would be our color of choice on a Ferrari, slightly less common when compared to the flagship red.

What really sets this car apart from other 308's is the well executed bodywork and the beautiful and rare Gotti wheels. A perfect example of a nicely aesthetically modified 308. The seller admits the body does need some TLC, with minor imperfections all around and rock chips/cracks on the front bumper.

The interior has some nice sporty Recaro seats to replace the quickly aged, cracked and flat OEM seats. The driver's seat shows some aging and the interior seems in need of a general clean-up.

With the various engine arrangements available in the 308 chassis this may be one of the more desirable ones, however the seller states most of the receipts available date back only to the late 80s/early 90s. However, a $1000 service was recently executed.

Given its sub-$30000 price tag, this seems to be a good example of a head-turning, entry level Ferrari. Depending on the enthusiast, some may say the aesthetic mods and lack of history do not help with the resale of the car, but that doesn't take away from the fact that this car looks great. We'd say the wheels alone are worth over $2500.
