Among the final models conceived and launched during Enzo Ferrari’s lifetime, the 328 series succeeded the immensely popular 308 in 1985. Pininfarina’s designers deftly balanced timeless aesthetics with emerging research into drag coefficients and aerodynamic lift, subtly softening Leonardo Fioravanti’s original wedge profile for a more cohesive, modern presence.

Midway through the 1988 model year, Ferrari unveiled the 328’s most meaningful evolution, introducing optional anti-lock brakes and subtly revised suspension geometry for enhanced handling. These changes necessitated new 16-inch convex alloy wheels, a visual shorthand now familiar to collectors for identifying these later cars.

Offered here is one of these enhanced “1988 1/2” models, a car preserved with exceptional care and one showcasing all the qualities most coveted by discerning tifosi: European specification, Ferrari Classiche certification, and remarkably low mileage. Showing just 9,830 kilometers (~6,101 miles) at cataloguing, it was delivered new to Italy in September 1988 through Crepaldi Auto S.P.A. and remained in the care of its original Milanese owner for nearly three decades. Prior to its importation to the United States in 2020, the car was certified by Ferrari Classiche in 2016 as retaining its numbers-matching engine, gearbox, and mechanical components.

Over the past 13 months, the car has benefited from more than $16,000 in comprehensive maintenance, beginning with an annual service at Ferrari of Fort Lauderdale that included rebuilt headlight motors and the installation of four new tires, and continuing at North Coast Exotics in Cleveland, Ohio, who installed new timing belts, tensioner pulleys, spark plugs, auxiliary belts, and fluids while also recharging the air conditioning. Accompanying the car is its Ferrari Classiche COA and Red Book, service invoices, a full collection of original owner’s manuals with warranty card and leather pouch, tool roll, jack kit, and a rarely seen factory protective leather bag for its targa roof panel.

A marquee example by any measure, this 328 GTS represents both a collector’s trophy and an endlessly engaging driver’s Ferrari—evoking the marque’s analog era with every turn of the key.
