Developed for Group B: The legendary Ferrari 288 GTO.

The 288 GTO marked the revival of the designation “GTO”, for Gran Turismo Omologato. In Ferrari’s world, those three letters are holy. Ferrari was looking to compete in the FIA’s Group B, now considered to be one of the most legendary eras of racing. To do so, the car needed to be homologated for competition, which meant 200 examples had to be produced for the road.
Unfortunately, several casualties during racing struck the world of Group B rally, and the championship got cancelled. Ferrari, which had fully developed the 288 GTO and homologated it, ended up selling the car to its most loyal customers, without racing it.
The 288 GTO boasted lightweight aluminum parts, such as the doors, trunk, and engine-lid. A GRP and carbon compound formed some of the bodywork. Although visually similar to the 308 GTB, the GTO was much wider, and was powered by the then new Tipo F114B V8 developing 400 hp thanks to its twin IHI turbochargers, sending the car to speeds over 300km/h.
Only 272 examples of the 288 GTO were built. Compared to the other models considered as the “Ferrari big 5”, the GTO is the rarest, in fact, it is more than four times rarer than the Ferrari F40.
This specific car is part of our collection and it can be seen in this short film, being enjoyed on some Bavarian backroads.

Great video. The 288 GTO is the most beautiful car Ferrari has ever made in my opinion. I can only dream of driving it.

[@guycha0s380]

😂

[@FabledGentleman]

I wouldn't dare to drive it. I've declined driving my friends Ferrari 458 several times, stating it would be like sitting on Mona Lisa. Some cars i just see as pure art, i couldn't drive them and cause microdamage to it. I guess I'm comfortable sitting in the passenger seat though. The 288 is as you say, maybe the most beautiful car ever made, it looks gorgeous no matter what angle you view it from. My dream car, which, if i owned one, would be kept inside a dry glass cage in my living room.

[@dennisf1020]

Agreed

[@MacXpert74]

@@FabledGentleman Yeah, I could imagine if I owned a 288 I would also be scared to drive it, because even if you're very careful yourself, you can't control what others might do. I have once driven a Ferrari California when I was in Italy and although it might not be the most popular model for many, it was a really fun experience to drive it.

But the F40 is still the King !

[@piccalillipit9211]

@@RS-of1om there is no way - given the choice - I would take an F40 over a 288 GTO. NOT a chance.

[@porscheguy09]

The 288 GTO is probably my favorite Ferrari of all time. I’d buy a GTO over a F40 if I ever could afford one.

[@JeffWoodwick]

A high value collectable where only ~274 exist. The 288 GTO is beautiful.

[@ollieturbo1362]

Enzo should’ve made them make 14 more 😅

[@stefankleiber492]

Please more content of this timeless beauty. 🥰 Preferably F40, too.

*SIMPLY THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING FERARRI EVER MADE* and no I wont debate it - its just the most beautiful - the end.

one of the best video about GTO, the best car ever made, even better than F40 for me...

[@cop3577]

You know its hell of a beast when it meant for group B

[@KNOWHOPE72]

This is the model that got me hooked on Ferrari when I was 13. It was my favorite Ferrari poster on my bedroom wall, since it oozes charisma when looking at it dead on. Now that I am coming into wealth, I hope I can be lucky enough to purchase one.

[@anthonos1]

C'est tout simplement la plus belle, la plus excitante. La 288 GTO. Écrire son nom me donne des frissons.

[@papapelizer]

Ferrari 288 GTO is best of the best of the best design for me.

[@qnoorani]

just a stunning car inside out. this was a ferrari at it's peak.

[@romeoalphamikejuliet6956]

Hands down, the most striking, gorgeous Ferrari ever made. Period.

[@asono11]

God! I almost got a tear while watching this video. The shapes, the sound, the color! What a timeless sexy machine. It brings me back to childhood in a glimpse, making me dream of one day owning this car! Thanks for the video !

[@hockeymann88]

Well that's a lovely little clip. It has always been a stunning beauty. Breathtaking really.

[@klausm5460]

It´s such a shame that the 288 GTO is pretty much dwarfed in the public´s recognition by the apparently more spectacular F40. I love that it blends the 328´s elegance and delicacy with most of the F40´s madness.

[@Saderue]

Tolles, kurzes knackiges Video ohne unnötiges Drumherum.

[@rvrschrs64]

This is the ultimate of the 308's, the original v8 Ferrari road cars, the Magnum car. It's also the father of the blessed F40, the most "iconic" car of the late 20th century.

[@sherrysharad]

It's not the power. It's the engine. Hear that SOUND! This is what we'll never have with modern emissions. This is what we'll miss with electric cars.

[@ryandolan3436]

A symphony that will die alongside the musical symphony. It will always be one of Ferrari's Greatest Hits.

[@khoimavlogs5161]

I think Ferrari 288 GTO and F40 the 2 most beautiful in Ferrari history.

Beautiful video for one of the most beautiful cars and artworks in the world

I understand that Ferrari design has to evolve... but still... I wish they could bring back the 308/328/288 GTO design. It's my favorite.

[@rollinwrench6298]

I’m lucky enough to get to play with some of worlds greatest sports cars. If given a choice to pick one to personally own, the 288 GTO is at the top of the list.

[@tougetrained]

[@nickcheema907]

the most beautiful (in my humble opinion) Ferrari. It looks menacing, even standing still

[@nicklong27]

When I was a kid growing up in the late 80's, everybody was all about the Testarossa. But this was the car waiting behind the bike sheds ready to steal it's lunch money.

[@maestro0428]

I’ve seen one of these in real life at a dealership and it was glorious for sure. I did chose to sit in the f40 over the gto however.

[@inactivemogul403]

Damn, that commercial for the 2023 288 GTO is bad ass! Wait until the tuners get ahold of it!

[@Instinktjagd]

So the thing is There are 6 i like : F40 288GTO Testarossa - Laferrari Enzo F50 Now to the ones i like the most and why : The 3 above are all edge shaped with pop up headlights The 3 down have a rather pointy look at the front and no pop up headlights anymore I like the popup headlights So thats why i continue with the upper 3 F40 is the only one of the remaining 3 with a mid mounted exhaust even the other 5 have 2 each side And thats why its my N°1 ❤ Even if i will never be able to drive it I admire the model car in my room Your opinion might vary

[@francisfreyburger5095]

De loin la plus belle Ferrari et ce Éternellement....💖❤

[@gustavsteger9518]

Much better design than today´s Ferraris

[@MotorStorm]

Amazing car and shots! it really shows how bad the factory paintjob was on those cars... I guess it's part of the spirit

[@martinb.770]

The path the "Ferrari base models" design language evolved from the Dino up to the F40, is adorable, and while the 348 looks rather boring, nearly feminine, the GTO is quite the opposite, demonstrating its power compared to the 328GTB/GTS, while keeping all design elements.

Really wish this supercar in its day was in my garage
