In 1986, Ferrari introduced the successor to the 308-based 208 GTB/GTS Turbo. The new GTS & and GTB Turbo models were equipped with a 2-liter, turbocharged V8 engine, the increase in power of which was made possible by an intercooler placed on top of the engine. The development of the turbocharged Tipo F106 N 000 – V8 engine was the responsibility of Nicola Materazzi himself, the man who had already designed the turbo technologies of legendary racing cars such as the Lancia Stratos GR5 and the Ferrari 126 C and was later the chief engineer of the Ferrari F40. The performance values ​​produced by the turbocharged engine with four overhead camshafts were almost identical to the Ferrari 328. Between 1985 and 1989, Ferrari produced 308 GTB Turbos and 828 GTS Turbos with Targa roofs.

This Argento Metallizato colored Ferrari GTS Turbo was first registered on June 19, 1986 in Treviso, Italy. Ferrari was owned by the same Balbinot family until 2012, when Finn J.Partanen bought it from them and registered the car in Finland. At that time, the car had been driven 37 thousand kilometers and in recent years it had only been used at local club events. The summer before the purchase, the Ferrari had been sitting unused in the garage, but the car was brought by driving from Italy to Finland without any problems.

The car’s history has been comprehensively and accurately documented since new. The Ferrari has been serviced regularly in garages specializing in Ferraris (in Italy 2300 km, 9200 km, 18100 km, 30,000 km & in Finland 40,000 km, 43,000 km, 49,000 km, 50,000 km and the latest in autumn 2023, 50,870 km). During the current owner’s time, among other things, the wearing parts of the suspension as well as the engine’s ignition parts and rubber hoses have been renewed, and the timing belts with the tensioners have been replaced on time (last in 2021). The car’s paintwork and interior have been taken care regularly by professionals and the Ferrari has been stored indoors in both Italy and Finland since new.

The original Ferrari service and user manuals are preserved with the original leather folder, as well as the original tools of the car. In addition, there are historical documents from both Italy and Finland, such as register and insurance papers.

Ferrari has left the factory in a silver gray Argento Metallizzato metallic color, that is extremely rarely seen in a GTS Turbo and the car is still in the factory’s first finish. The car is in stunningly excellent original condition from every direction, even when viewed from below. The car’s black leather interior is in original, excellent condition, and the aluminum parts of the driver’s footwell even have the factory protective plastics in place.
