Default 308 GTS

Does anyone know anything about an older Lambo. was either 308 or 306 GTS. looked like an 80's car, nasty brown paint in excellent condition.

I believe the car has the same tall gearing problem I have in the porsche.

A lot of the european sports cars were set up for high speed cruising instead of quick starts.
