The 1975-85 Ferrari 308 was a transverse mid-engined, rear-wheel drive two-seater.
The first model introduced in 1975 was the GTB Berlinetta with 255 hp 2.9 V8
The Targa top version, the GTS, introduced in 1977
In 1980 Bosch K-Jetronic mechanical fuel injection was offered, leading to the 308 GTBi and GTSi; emissions decreased, at the price of a power drop to 211 hp, visually, very similar.
The 1982-85 GTBi and GTSi Quattrovalve version of the 308, received double the valves. This 4-valve per cylinder car (hence the name Quatrovalvole) restored the horsepower to 240hp. 
The new model could be recognized by the addition of a slim louvred panel in the front lid to aid radiator exhaust air exit, power operated mirrors carrying a small enamel Ferrari badge, a redesigned radiator grille with rectangular driving lights on each side, and rectangular (in place of round) side repeaters.
