LMC is proud to offer for sale this 1988 Ferrari 328 GTS.
The Ferrari 328 was launched in 1985 as an improved variant of the Ferrari 308, which dated back to 1975. Among the changes was an increase in the displacement of the transversely-mounted 90* DOHC V8 engine, from 3.0 litres to 3.2 litres. The bump in displacement also gave the improved model its new name; 328 is shorthand for its 3.2 litre, 8-cylinder engine. The 328 is well-regarded among Ferrari enthusiasts for its reliability, durability, and ease of use relative to other Ferrari models.
This example was sold new from Big Red Sports/Imports in Norman, Oklahoma. It is finished in classic FER 1240 Nero opaque paint over a VM8500 Nero leather interior, with matching Nero carpet and optional black leather dashboard. Like all 328s, it is powered by the Tipo F105CB engine generating 270 horsepower and 231 foot-pounds of torque. This high-winding mill is managed via a 5-speed manual transmission with the classic gated shifter for maximum precision. With only 36,275 miles on the clock and last major service completed May 28th 2018. It has been meticulously cared for by its previous owners and comes with records for all services performed under each of their care. It also comes with Owner’s Warranty and Service Book, Owner’s Manual and Tools.
The 328 is one of the last true analog Ferrari’s built and have been highly underrated in the collector car world for a long time. They have been increasing in value over the last few years and are considered some of the best cars to come from Maranello during the 1980s. Don’t miss the opportunity to add this future collectible to your stable.

About Ferrari
The first Ferrari road car was the 125 S introduced in 1947 and powered by a 1.5 L V12 engine, right? Well it's not quite that simple, Ferrari did in fact produce e Tipo 815, in 1940. Tipo 815 was designed by ex-Alfa Romeo engineers Alberto Massimino and Vittorio Bellentani and by Enrico Nardi under Enzo's company but legal issues with the former associate Alfa Romeo prevented Ferrari from launching the Ferrari marque at that point.
Enzo did produce a series of fine road cars in the 50's and 60's but they were merely to finance his true passion racing, wheather GT/Sports car or Grand Prix. The 50's saw the birth of Ferrari's most memorable cars, 250 GTB (tour de France) 250 Testa Rossa, 250 GT swb just to name a few.
Under the surface tension was growing though. In November 1961 long-time sales manager Girolamo Gardini made an ultimatum to Enzo: if tensions continued, he would leave the company. As a result, Gardini was ousted, as well as Scuderia Ferrari manager Romolo Tavoni, chief engineer Carlo Chiti, experimental sports car development chief Giotto Bizzarrini, and a number of others who stood by them.
Without Chiti and Bizzarrini the development of what was to become the most quintessential Ferrari and today the world's most expensive car, 250 GTO, was at a pivoting point. 250 GTO project was saved by a young engineer Mauro Forghieri and long-time racing bodyman Sergio Scaglietti who stepped in and took over the program with known results.
In addition to 250 GTO, Ferrari launced such master pieces as 250 LM, 250P, 275 GTB, 365 GTB/4 "Daytona" during the the 60's
By the late 60's Ferrari's prototypes' success came to a sudden halt by a new competitor, GT40. Ford turned to Lola to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after Enzo had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that gave Ferrari some heavy hits in Le Mans 24 to come.
By the end of the 60's FIAT purchased 50% of the company, starting a development that has led to a new mass-produced era of Ferraris.
