At the beginning of the ‘80s, Ferrari was forced to detune the engines installed in the 308 lineup to comply with stricter regulations, but the Italian automaker gained back its lost ponies when it introduced the 1982 Quatrovalvole powerplant.

Due to stricter emission regulations, Ferrari had to cut the power of its engines in the late ‘70s, but later, it gained back some of the ponies lost thanks to the four-valve technology.

The targa version of the Ferrari 308 GTB received the GTS name and it was one of the cars that made the Italian brand notorious in the U.S. thanks to a movie-series.

Ferrari unveiled the 308 GTB sports car at the Paris Motor Show in 1975, and it was a complete departure from the car’s predecessor, the Dino 246 GTB.
