Entering production in 1985, the Ferrari 328 represented the final iteration of Maranello’s transverse mid-mounted Dino V-8. Updated to reflect advances in aerodynamics, the Leonardo Fioravanti-penned bodywork—styled by Pininfarina and built by Carrozzeria Scaglietti—offered a modern and attractive interpretation of the 308 platform, with the added benefit of increased performance from an enlarged 3.2-litre V-8 and a five-speed manual gearbox that could put out 270 horsepower, with a top speed of roughly 163 MPH.
The initial production run was from 1985 to 1989, with 1,089 total models manufactured. Afterward, the Ferrari 348 inevitably succeeded the 328.
