This was posted over a year ago re: 308's, by someone who's opinion on cars I trust:

With my 911, I drive it like it was meant to be driven, because I know that almost all the parts are still available, and are very common. With the Ferrari, I had to order a lot of stuff from the UK, and even then a lot was unavailable.

In general, I found that the car was fantastic to look at, but was really slow to drive, and quite frustrating to work on (mainly because parts were unavailable or too expensive).

I bet that "FIERO (GM) V6 2.8 ltr. WITH THE FIERO GETRAG 5 SPEED TRANS" sounds sweet when you get into the upper 4k RPM range...
