13k-Mile 1989 Ferrari 328 GTS Returns to BaT
A 1989 Ferrari 328 GTS with 13k miles is listed on Bring a Trailer. The Rosso Corsa example features ABS and a 3.2L V8. Explore details and market context.
A low-mileage 1989 Ferrari 328 GTS has surfaced on Bring a Trailer, returning to the same platform where the current owner acquired it in July 2025. After spending more than three decades in Florida, the car is now offered on dealer consignment in California.
Finished in Rosso Corsa (code 300) over beige leather with embossed Cavallino Rampante headrests, this example shows just over 13,000 miles, fewer than 100 of which were added under current ownership. Out of 7,412 Ferrari 328s produced between 1985 and 1989 — including 6,068 GTS versions — cars with mileage at this level occupy a distinct place in today’s collector market.
Power comes from the mid-mounted 3.2-liter naturally aspirated V8 (Type F105) equipped with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection. Factory output was rated at 260 horsepower and 213 lb-ft of torque, delivered to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transaxle and a limited-slip differential.
As a late-production example, this car benefits from the introduction of ABS, which arrived midway through the 1988 model year and became standard on U.S.-market 1989 cars. The update was accompanied by suspension revisions and the adoption of distinctive 16-inch convex Speedline wheels — visual cues that distinguish the final iteration of the 328 series. Braking is handled by power-assisted ventilated discs.
Inside, the cabin reflects late-1980s Ferrari character: a classic gated shifter, air conditioning, power windows, Veglia instrumentation with a 10,000-rpm tachometer, and an Alpine audio system with an amplifier mounted in the spare wheel well. The sale includes the owner’s manual and tool kit, and the Carfax report is described as free of accidents or reported damage.
Market data for the Ferrari 328 GTS shows a benchmark figure around $110,000, though recent auction results for low-mileage cars have exceeded that level. Commenters have already drawn comparisons with another recently sold example and openly speculate whether this car could approach or surpass the $200,000 mark.
The listing notes that a timing belt service was reportedly performed in 2021. For the 328, belt replacement is typically considered not only in terms of mileage but also time interval, a subject that continues to be discussed among owners and specialists.
In California, vehicles from 1976 onward remain subject to Smog Check requirements, an issue that often surfaces in discussions surrounding late-1980s European performance cars.
Altogether, this 1989 Ferrari 328 GTS represents one of the final fully analog Ferraris before the digital transition of the 1990s — a compact, mid-engined sports car defined by mechanical purity, modest production numbers, and enduring collector appeal.
