General Description

Unveiled to the world at the 1985 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Ferrari 328 picked up exactly where the 308 had left off. Offered in both GTS targa and GTB coupe guises, the 328 continued the evolution of one of the most iconic Ferrari shapes of all time with the all new ‘junior’ supercar moving the dial further than its predecessor.

Whilst borrowing the well-known formula from the 308 with a tubular chassis, double wishbone independent suspension and front and rear anti-roll bars, learnings were also taken from the 288 GTO including the use of the GTO’s steering rack to ensure the 328 was a much more engaging prospect to drive at speed. The quad cam engine’s displacement was increased to 3185cc with four valves per cylinder, resulting in a more than healthy 0-60 mph sprint of 5.5 seconds and a claimed output of 270 bhp.

Pininfarina decided to opt for more evolution than revolution when it came to the styling of the 328, opting for a larger egg-crate grill alongside softer bumpers and edges around the vehicle when compared to its predecessor. Inside, the cabin was reworked to create a more luxurious and comfortable place to be, with the 288 GTO again offering inspiration with upgraded seats, a re-designed centre console and better switchgear.

Whilst the GTB may be faster on paper, only 1344 GTBs are believed to have been ordered opposed to over 6,000 GTS in the same 4 year period making it one of Ferrari’s most successful models to date no-doubt helped on by its roles in the likes of Magnum P.I, Dallas and many other cult classics. 

Today the 328 is a much sought after collector piece, and offers a truly remarkable analog experience wrapped in one of Ferrari’s most iconic profiles.
