I will always have a soft spot for the 308, when I was 6 years old my Dad ordered me a birthday cake with a Ferrari 308 on it. Happy memories.

That’s such a beautiful car. A white 308 is my dream car. I love when he said “I’ll drive it, I’ll drive it hard”. It’s a car. That’s what they’re for!!!

Did 128,000 miles in mine without a single breakdown. Thrashed it every inch of the way too. 308 QV's are the most reliable mid-engined Italian sports car made in my opinion. Got 2 other friends with 100k + miles 308's too, one is a 78 carb car, again both cars are trouble free. The ones that sit around in garages are the ones with problems. 308's were meant to be used and driven hard, the harder the better. Cheaper parts than most modern everyday cars, easy on fuel and cheap to insure as a classic. I also did 112,000 miles totally trouble free in a 550 Maranello, again rev limited it virtually every time I drove it. Another well built car.

These videos are just so awesome. I just watched the 35l Pantera just like I had when I was a kid. Now this ,84 308 . I had a yellow one back in the late 80,s. Jay is right about 100,000 being just a shitload of miles for a Ferrari. After 15,000 you have to have them completely rebuilt with new timing components or run the chance of them blowing up going down the road. I had that done twice before I sold it and got the Red 88 Testerosa. Man I loved that car for sure. Even thou I'm 6.3 and size 15 shoe. Wich is just hard as Hell not to hit all three pedals at once. Now I drive a Ford F150. Oh well. Still have the memories. My old back can't handle them sport cars any more. I do like the Imperial convertible that Jay has.

While I have a predisposition towards the Teutonic machines from Stuttgart, I love all motorized vehicles. I drove my first Ferrari thanks to my late neighbor who offered me the keys to his 288 Ferrari GTO as a birthday offering for the a day. I was in awe of the car from the day I saw it as a competitor to the venerable Porsche 959. It was an absolute blast driving it through the beautiful Maryland country roads - and yes, you had better be pointing the wheels forward when you engage the turbos at full throttle!. An unforgettable experience. The same was true for the experience behind the wheel of his beautiful, albeit more docile BB512 (my all time favorite). A stunningly beautiful car that drove like a thoroughbred 12 cylinder Ferrari. I would have bought that car and kept it forever had it not been for a lack of liquidity and marital commitment. (-:

Beautiful 308. A perfect example. My dad owns an 1980 308 GTSi targa and its an awesome car, red with tan interior. My dad bought it in the 80's before my parents got married. Ive seen a picture of my dad next to his 308 in the 80's, with his mustache and a Detroit lions hat on with his deck shoes, polo and short shorts, looked just like Magnum P.I.

I took it that when he found the Ferrari, he was a bit younger and maybe hadn't built up a stockpile of cash at that stage in his life. Might be a different story now that he is older and has made a name for himself as a Ferrari restorer.

Always wanted Magnums 308 GTS so this is wonderful. Back in the 90s I looked into these and found them for about $35k. Wanted one so bad.

I was in Montreal in the summer building airplanes for Canadair. One day I was over at the video store getting into my car. Of course I notice the 308 sitting there - who wouldn't.. I was sitting in my car just looking at the damned thing thinking how beautiful it is when the guy ambles over to it, a big fellow. I give him the thumb up for having the F-Car for heavens sake. And with somewhat of a grimace cracks the door and shoehorns himself into it. Then I hear the starter crank over and over and over stop. Then over and over and BLAP BRATT A BRATT BRAWWLLLL the dual coils finally agree to work like family in the Italian fashion, but only after dark clouds of grey smoke come out of the pipes. I will never forget it. Just like the time a silver Daytona came gliding past me in Colorado Springs when I was a cadet at the Air Force Academy. that's another story.

Jay, love your "JAY LENO'S GARAGE"! You are my fav., Stand Up Comedian, Talk Show Host, and Gear Head! Don't stop, your the greatest! Thank you for sharing all your beautiful cars with all your viewers! I'm a gear head likewise, my fav. car since I was a kid (I'm 71 now) was the FORD GT and still is. Can't afford one but I can still dream! And, by the way love your 2017 striped black GT! Have a wonderful day Jay, I will continue to watch your KZread channel, since I have subscribed! Catch you next time!

I'm so over red. Never liked Red. This white GTB is absolutely gorgeous!!!!

Red became a cliched color! It looked good when Magnum PI drove it but it got played out! A White Ferrari is classic looking! I like it! And it matches Jays White Hair too as a bonus!

Why not Toyota Metallic Beige. That would be a nice refin on this car.

Anybody notice that ding in the drivers door that wasn't there at the beginning of the episode? Tisk, Tisk. Was that you Mr Leno? 😜

Jay and Donnie it was a joy to watch this episode. Donnie your passion is palpable and how you run your restorations is such an inspiration. I enjoyed watching this vid and seeing the care put in this car so much. Keep up the good work guys.

This isn't my favorite episode, but it is way up there in the top 10 or so. The conversation was excellent and the information too.

i always thought Ferrari 308's had to be red or yellow but after looking at this white one...pretty sweet.
