Rosso Reimagined: 1982 Ferrari 308 GTSi on Bring a Trailer After 28 Years of Cherished Ownership
A 1982 Ferrari 308 GTSi, meticulously maintained and finished in iconic Rosso Corsa, is now available on Bring a Trailer—offered with no reserve after 28 years in the hands of a single devoted owner.
Originally finished in Azzurro (502), the mid-engine V8 sports car received its striking red respray shortly after the current owner acquired it in 1997. Since then, it's been driven approximately 24,000 miles, contributing to the car's current total of 39,000 miles. Offered with a clean Carfax, extensive service records, and a clean Oregon title, this GTSi is a standout example of Ferrari's beloved 308 lineage.
Powering the 308 is a 2.9-liter quad-cam V8 mated to a gated five-speed manual transaxle. A timing-belt service was completed as recently as August 2024, with additional recent maintenance including fresh fluids, new tires, and replacement lid struts. Brake pads were also updated, and the air-conditioning system has been recharged for modern comfort.
Inside, the car features Nero leather seats, electric windows, a Clarion stereo, and the unmistakable gated shifter with its classic dogleg pattern. A MOMO steering wheel faces Veglia gauges, including an 85-mph speedometer and a 7,700-rpm redline tachometer. The pop-up headlights, black removable roof panel, and quad-exit exhaust round out the period-correct features that made the 308 GTSi a pop-culture icon.
Rolling on 16″ silver five-spoke wheels wrapped in Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 tires, this Ferrari is more than a nostalgic throwback—it's a turn-key, driver-ready sports car with pedigree.
With no reserve and decades of careful ownership, this Rosso Corsa beauty offers collectors a rare opportunity to secure one of Ferrari's most recognizable classics. Bidding is live now on Bring a Trailer.

Tesla ordered to pay $200 million in punitive damages over fatal crash
Tesla was found partly liable in a wrongful death case involving the electric vehicle company's Autopilot system, with a jury awarding the plaintiffs $200 million in punitive damages plus additional money in compensatory damages. The case, which took place in a Miami courtroom over the last couple of weeks, centered on whether defects in Tesla's self-driving technology ultimately contributed to the death of 22-year-old Naibel Benavides Leon in 2019. Along with the $200 million in punitive damages, Tesla was also ordered to pay around $43 million in compensatory damages directly to the plaintiffs. Leon was killed when a man driving a Model S Tesla equipped with Tesla's Autopilot technology plowed through a T-shaped intersection and struck her and her boyfriend Dillon Angulo. Angulo survived but was gravely injured. The federal jury held that Tesla bore significant responsibility in the incident and that George McGee, the Florida driver who lost sight of the road when he dropped his phone, was not entirely to blame. "Today's verdict represents justice for Naibel's tragic death and Dillon's lifelong injuries, holding Tesla and Musk accountable for propping up the company's trillion-dollar valuation with self-driving hype at the expense of human lives," said the plaintiffs' attorney Brett Schreiber in a statement shared with CBS News. The plaintiffs in the case originally asked for $345 million in damages during closing arguments on Thursday. During the trial, lawyers for the plaintiffs alleged that Tesla either hid or lost key evidence after a forensic data expert was able to recover data from the accident that Tesla said had been deleted. Tesla disputes ruling and will appeal "Today's verdict is wrong, and only works to set back automotive safety and jeopardize Tesla's and the entire industry's efforts to develop and implement life-saving technology," Tesla said in a statement to CBS MoneyWatch. "This was never about Autopilot; it was a fiction concocted by plaintiffs' lawyers blaming the car when the driver — from day one — admitted and accepted responsibility." Tesla also said it plans to appeal the decision. The case was a big test for the electric vehicle maker, which has been under scrutiny over the safety of its cars. Similar cases have been brought against Tesla, although many have been dismissed. "This will open the floodgates," said Miguel Custodio, a car crash lawyer not involved in the Tesla case. "It will embolden a lot of people to come to court."

More than 300,000 Fords just got recalled for a brake issue you can't ignore
Ford is recalling more than 300,000 vehicles over concerns that problems with the power brake assist system could lead to a crash. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued the safety notice, noting that the issue could extend stopping distances for a vehicle in motion. The affected vehicles are 2025 versions of Ford's Lincoln Navigator, F-150, Expedition, Bronco, and Ranger. According to the NHTSA, the vehicles might also experience malfunctions in the electronic brake booster (EBB) module when using the advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) feature, which could similarly interfere with the power brake assist system and cause an accident. For affected vehicles, the EBB issue can be resolved with an over-the-air software update or at a dealer for free. The new recall is the latest in a spate of recent recalls for the auto maker. In July, Ford recalled almost 700,000 vehicles over a fuel leak problem that could cause a fire under the hood. That recall, which impacted some Bronco Sport and Ford Escape models, was the result of a yearlong investigation into ongoing problems with the vehicles' fuel injectors. Just prior to that, an even wider recall was issued over worries about the low-pressure fuel pump on more than 850,000 Ford vehicles. Car recalls are on the rise broadly, but Ford's issues stand out. The manufacturer tops the list for the most vehicle recalls in the U.S., though the company's leadership hopes to nip future issues in the bud by holding new vehicles for an extra phase of quality checks. 'What we're going to see long term is fewer recalls and lower warranty costs because of this new process,' Ford CEO Jim Farley said in an earnings call last year. The early-rate deadline for Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies Awards is Friday, September 5, at 11:59 p.m. PT. Apply today.

Tesla Ordered to Pay More Than $200 Million Over Fatal Autopilot Crash
A jury in Florida found Tesla partially liable for a fatal 2019 crash involving one of the company's vehicles operating in Autopilot mode. The jury awarded a combined $243 million in punitive and compensatory damages to Tesla, according to The New York Times. The incident in question occurred in Key Largo, Florida, in 2019. George McGee was behind the wheel of a Tesla Model S and had the company's Autopilot software activated while traveling down a two-lane road at night. As the car drove through the intersection while McGee was searching for his phone, it crashed into the back of a legally parked black SUV at a speed of more than 50 miles per hour. Naibel Benavides, a 22-year-old college student, and her boyfriend, Dillon Angulo, were standing outside the vehicle at the time of impact. Angulo sustained serious injuries from the crash, and Benavides lost her life as a result of the collision. The Florida jury found that McGee bore 2/3rds of the responsibility for the crash, but Tesla was responsible for 1/3rd of it, as the company's Autopilot software failed to brake while approaching the intersection that it ultimately sped through before initiating the deadly crash. 'Tesla designed Autopilot only for controlled access highways yet deliberately chose not to restrict drivers from using it elsewhere, alongside Elon Musk telling the world Autopilot drove better than humans,' Brett Schreiber, counsel for the plaintiffs, told CNBC. Tesla denounced the ruling and said that it plans to appeal the decision. 'Today's verdict is wrong and only works to set back automotive safety and jeopardize Tesla's and the entire industry's efforts to develop and implement life-saving technology. We plan to appeal given the substantial errors of law and irregularities at trial,' Tesla said in a statement, per The Times. Of the many lawsuits brought against Tesla for failures stemming from its autonomous systems, this was the first to go to a jury trial. Tesla has previously settled out of court to avoid trial—a route the company took earlier this year to avoid proceedings related to another 2019 incident in which a Model 3 allegedly failed to avoid a collision with a tractor-trailer. The ruling, which the judge in the case accepted, comes as Tesla is attempting to ramp up its fully autonomous 'Robotaxi' service, which allows people to request rides from driverless Tesla vehicles. The company's limited launch in Austin, Texas, was plagued by dangerous driving from the Robotaxis. The company started offering the service in San Francisco last month, though the vehicles have a human in the driver's seat.
