Ferrari - 308 (1982)

Imagine slipping behind the wheel of a Ferrari 308, the iconic 2‑door coupe that once ruled the European streets in the early 1980s. Whether you’re a collector, a motorsport enthusiast, or simply curious about classic Italian engineering, knowing the Ferrari 308 price and how its value has shifted over the decades is crucial. This guide dives deep into everything you need to know—from spec details and depreciation trends to how a 1982 Ferrari 308 stacks up against its peers.

Ferrari 308 Depreciation Over Time

Vehicle depreciation is often the first factor that sways purchase decisions. Classic cars follow a different curve than modern models—initial rapid loss gives way to stability as age and rarity kick in.

  • First year: Typically loses 15‑20 % of its value as it leaves the showroom and begins to age.
  • Year 2–5: Decline slows; a well‑maintained 308 may drop around 5–8 % per year.
  • Year 6–10: Value stabilizes. Classic car collectors often see a modest 2–4 % fluctuation annually.
  • Beyond 10 years: The car’s provenance, documentation, and maintenance history become paramount. Prices can plateau, increase, or decline by up to 30 % relative to the 10‑year‑old baseline, depending on market sentiment.

Because the Ferrari 308 depreciation curve mirrors the cost of safeguarding motorsports legacy, many owners invest in meticulous documentation and restoration. That extra care helps the car hold its ground—or even rise—in valuation.

Comparative Context to Similar Models

When you ask “What is a 1982 Ferrari 308 worth?” or look for “Ferrari 308 1982 price,” it’s useful to compare it to other classic Italian performance references:

  • Alfa Romeo GTV/Spider (1986–1994): Shares the 2‑door coupe format and twin‑turbo 2.0° engine; yet, the Go/Spider sits in the mid‑range $20k‑$30k used market, below the 308’s typical $30k‑$45k range.
  • BMW 325i (E30, 1986‑1991): A European competitor with a reputation for durability and absolute value; comparable in horsepower but not the exotic Italian pop.
  • Vauxhall Nova (1986‑1995): A more affordable, domestic offering, illustrating how standout luxury cars stand out over far more modest, as‑is models.

In terms of aesthetics, performance, and prestige, the Ferrari 308 consistently maintains a more desirable market position when measured against similar run of the mill models.
