Ferrari 308 GTBi

The Ferrari 308 GTBi reaches 60 mph in 6.72 s (100 km/h in 7.03 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.18 s, tripping the lights at 95.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.65 s and the eighth mile in 10.02 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the 308 GTBi

The 1981 Ferrari 308 GTBi is a rear-drive naturally aspirated supercar of 1,330 kg with 211 bhp, which works out at 158 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 158 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.65 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 4,192nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 106th quickest of the 129 Ferraris here. Its 95.2 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 7 of 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Ferrari 308 GTBi 0-60 time?
The Ferrari 308 GTBi reaches 60 mph in 6.72 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 4,192nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Ferrari 308 GTBi quarter mile time?
15.18 s at 95.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.02 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.65 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Ferrari 308 GTBi have?
211 bhp and 1,330 kg, which is 158 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 235 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Ferrari 308 GTBi?
Closest here on pace: Cadillac BLS Wagon 2.8 V6 280 (6.74 s), Cadillac BLS 2.8 V6 255 (6.77 s), Cadillac XTS 3.6 V6 305 (6.67 s). Each one can be raced against the Ferrari 308 GTBi in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Ferrari 308 GTBi is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 7 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
