    Hi All, How do these two iconic 80's sportscars stack up against each other? Which would you have?? Let us know in the comments section!

    • @HeidiandFranny
      @HeidiandFranny  Před 6 lety

      It's that sound, right? But I really like the 3.2 sound too. The looks and styling are great on the Ferrari too... It really is an amazing car :)

    • @jamcdona
      @jamcdona Před 6 lety

      The Porsche (for me) sounds a little similar to my BMW's I used to drive hard. I now have an 86 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce, modified a bit, and a 74 TR6. I totally get what you are saying about the 308 vs the Porsche, but with a twist. The TR6 has a great sound, but muted compared to the Alfa. The Alfa is like a go cart due to the chassis stiffener and Koni's, and is way easier to drive in normal traffic. *Read constant road construction in Oregeon*
      Now, my input is...buy both! If you can. If not, the Ferrari will be the win. You need to love and be involved at a deeper level for the 308, which will bring more satisfaction.

    • @nickh1933
      @nickh1933 Před 6 lety

      Tough choice! I longed after both cars as a young boy in the 80's. My fathers friend had a late 80's 328 GTB which was super cool. A mentor friend of mine has a very unique red 400i with all the cats removed. It is awesome grand touring car with amazingly comfortable, deep, thick leather seats and the interior of that car smells like Heaven! Amazing sounds come from that car. I am forever "Porsche 911" at heart, however I have quite a few other F cars I LOVE.... 288 GTO, 250 GTB, Dino GT, 575 M, 599 GTO. I love both of your cars and cannot make a choice either way, so if forced to choose, I would have to take both! The 308 QV is the classic icon of the era next to the Testarossa, and ANY Classic Carrera (especially in white) is just the perfect all around package!

    • @HeidiandFranny
      @HeidiandFranny  Před 6 lety

      The thing about the 308 is that they made so many of them (a drop in the bucket compared to the 911 though), but if they had only made 1000, or 500 it would be worth so much more. It has everything to be a true classic. But,... that 3.2 Carrera, huh? f

    I love both but I have to go with the Porsche. Porsche has a very special place in my heart. It all started with seeing a 930 turbo that was completely black. I was 5yrs then and I still remember the excitement of seeing the car race past my parents Land Rover. Ever since that day I promised I would have one

  • @ShamileII
    @ShamileII Před 3 lety +6

    Having owned both cars you reviewed, for me the 308 was a far more exciting car. It was slow....but it felt fast. One thing you didn't mention was the beautiful noise the gearbox makes when you shift the gear. I always loved the gearbox whine in my 308s . When I went to the Testarossa, I was disappointed that it was gone.

  • @marcolucchini8173
    @marcolucchini8173 Před 5 lety +5

    It would be the Ferrari for me hands down. I don't have 308 as I couldn't find a good one at the time, so I settled for a 1989 382GTS. Fantastic car. I've had it now for 12 years and it hasn't missed a beat even though I thrash it every time I get in it. As for timing belts every five years, I think that's a myth. I have ten years on mine and am about to change them now. As long as you keep an eye on them that they don't get oil on them, they are all good. ( also besides time, it a distance thing too ). I just laugh when people say they are unreliable when they have never owned one let alone ever driven one. Great video. But for me, it's the Ferrari every time.

  • @vanlurton6068
    @vanlurton6068 Před 6 lety +2

    Great review of the cars that I wanted when I was in high school and college. I drove a '85 911 and it's a different beast than my 997 and 911. I suspect that my modern 911s drove closer to the 308. I love that you point out that your Porsche "drivers weird" in high speed corning, most people don't understand this about the older 911s. I've seen a mid-80s 911 race car spin off a track on a high speed turn. I didn't fully understand why it went off the track until I drove my 997 on the same track. It was the scariest turn on the track, #10 on Summit Point Circuit track, but the most rewarding when you do it correctly. Thanks again for the review!!

    • @HeidiandFranny
      @HeidiandFranny  Před 6 lety

      Sorry about that ;) That stock wheel is a little weird and it moves a lot more than the 308. That Momo on the 308 is super sweet and now I know why I see them on the Porsches so much. It is a little small diameter too. I hope it wasn't too distracting. I noticed it too ;) F

    • @HeidiandFranny
      @HeidiandFranny  Před 6 lety +3

      Thanks! It is original... It wasn't when we bought it, but we totally lucked out and scored a correct year original Euro exhaust with like 10Kmiles on it from A gentleman on F-Chat. Amazing find and I really love the sound. Never droney and still has a nice bite! It sounds great, doesn't it? Funny, all our cars have stock exhausts.

    Was a good Video! Was waiting for that comparison. You nailed the personality differences. Perhaps a bier stein and glass Prosecco is a better analogy.
    Also have those 2 in my garage a 328 and a 911/964 and couldn’t imagine having to depart with one.
    You definitely need to show them off on some better roads, that I know you have around that state.
    Great job!

    • @HeidiandFranny
      @HeidiandFranny  Před 6 lety

      Will do! Those roads are easy enough to get to, but a bit more up the canyons would be more suiting - I agree. And, it isn't completely fair... I really should have paired the 308 with an SC - same displacement and same injection. Still, the two are different enough that they really do sit well in the same garage. Like I said, we couldn't pick between them either!

    Hey A superb review on my two fave 80s cars. 308 (Magnum pi) is so sexy, and even the 328. I would never want to own one though, just drive one. As for the 911, well, you summed up the 915 perfectly. The only reason why so many have lost their 2nd gear syncro mesh is because those folk think they can change gear in the same way they would in their VW Golf. For me it has to be the 'No man's land' Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera, and the 915 series too. Love your very informative channel

    • @HeidiandFranny
      @HeidiandFranny  Před 6 lety

      Several comments on my hand position. A couple of things... Not a great idea to have your thumb under the web like that... If the steering wheel was to jerk quickly it could break my thumb. It is just that the wheel diameter is a bit small and that bus angle and how heavy the steering is at low speeds I got into a bad habit. Even when I was at higher speeds, I didn't alter my grip... Need to work on that! Welcome to the channel!! Maybe I'll make a video on lowering the angle of that wheel somewhat ;) Franny

    Enjoyed watching. I used to own a 1977 911s and I really enjoyed driving it. But I've always loved the lines of the 308 ! These days I'd prefer the Ferrari qv. Nice you have a euro spec car.

    The stereo in the Ferrari isn't aftermarket. What Ferrari used to do was they would wire everything and then let you pick the head unit as you bought it so you can pick different head units and that would be the factory stereo but they would wire all at Ferrari for you.

    Awesome comparison. I am crazy for the Pininfarina design, and the sound of that engine in the 308. But I am sold on Porsche. I just love the way they drive, and they have their own beautiful sounds. Thank you for the side by side of these classics.

    Gidday Franny (and Heidi). I've only just found your channel tonight during some Covid-19 "home time", which is actually normal for me, lol! I'm a '65 kid, so grew up with Magnum PI, and have always wanted a red 308GTS (just ask my parents!). But I've always loved the VW Beetle curved shape of the older 911, and just adore the throaty sound of the flat-6 air cooled engine. As a pilot, I also have experienced that same growl of a big flat-6 up front, So I've a real dilemma in choosing... Back in late 80s I had a red Alfa 33QV boxer as my 308 stand-in, so know all too much about the Italian narrow offset pedals, weird steering angle and low seats, not to mention the terrible electrics, high revving engine coupled to a close range unreliable 5 speed gearbox. It was a costly expensive car, but it won me a wife back then! So I'd probably go for the Porsche 911 for that classy growl and the more upright seating, now that I'm much older. Would still love the 308 for weekends as they're such a head turner with the Italian flare and the "need for speed"! I love your content, your super knowledgeable commentary, and very pragmatic conclusions. Cheers down in from NZL

    This may have been mentioned earlier but there was a fun 308 vs 911 contest in the 1984 movie Against All Odds. James Woods in the Ferrari and Jeff Bridges in the Porsche.

    • @HeidiandFranny
      @HeidiandFranny  Před 3 lety

      That is a great scene!! Next time you watch it check out the VW bug... Somehow it keeps getting ahead of them ;) The Carrera is an '83 3.2 Carrera Cabriolet. The first Cab since the 356! Great fun :)

    Against All Odds staring Jeff Bridges, there's a scene where Jeff is racing James Woods' character down Sunset Blvd around the Beverly Hills area and Jeff is in a red 911 SC Cabriolet and Woods in a black 308 GTSi, one of the underrated car chase/race scenes of all-time IMO.

      @HeidiandFranny  Před 6 lety +2

      That is an awesome scene! The sounds of the cars... Probably not something Porsche or Ferrari would endorse ;) Watch it again and check out the Beetle they pass in the beginning. It shows up again towards the end when they go screaming by it ;) Best Ferrari on Porsche I've seen. F

    Nice comparo! The 3.2 Carrera has enough low end torque but the engine really sings past 4kRPM.

      @HeidiandFranny  Před 6 lety +1

      So true! I'm not sure I really did it justice with the sound. You can actually feel a bit of a boost past 4K. I'm a big fan.

    I use to own a 308-GTS Ferrari and I loved it. It drove great but better at higher speeds and that is where I liked it the best. I owned it for close to 21 years and sold it for the same price I bought it. I do miss it but would I ever buy another one someday. YOU BET.

    Well, this is a really nice video,honest opinions like the cars really are. I go for the porsche because the better daily use of it and it' (in my opinion) bullet prove . The ferrari makes me think on Magnum PI ,a real beauty but I hoped on a more sharper sound of that V8. I realy enjoyed this video ,thanks
