The introduction of the 288GTO in 1984 heralded a new era in supercars. This gorgeous Ferrari set new standards for performance (and prices!) that paved the way for a new breed of 'Hypercar' which was to include such classics as the 959, F40, XJ220 and ultimately the McLaren F1.
Styled by Pininfarina from a 308 base, the GTO was one of the first road cars to make use of racing developed composite materials, including a lightweight rust free GRP body. It also set a precedent as the first Turbo charged Ferrari road car available outside of Italy.
With a production run of only 273, the 288GTO remains a rare and much sought after classic from probably the greatest marque of them all. |
