.... whats the difference between:
1) a Ferrari 308 GTS and a 308 GTB?
2) a regular F355 F1 & an F355 Berlinetta & an F355 GTS?
3) Why is it called the 'Superamerica' if it wasnt built for the U.S. market?
Like they said before, the GTS is the removable roof, not the spyder, thats the convertible. The F1 refers to the Formula one transmission (Flappy paddle gear box per Jeremy/top gear). GTB and berlinetta are essentially synonomous. This notation applies to most models (if not all).
One thing I never got was Barchetta. The italian translation is 'Small Boat'!!
It makes sense but I always found it funny that they call their cars boats.
Lastly, the Superamerica wasnt BUILT for the US, it was marketed for the US. There are Euro spec superamericas but the US is Ferrari's largest market these days. Same deal with the CA Spyders. There were many made, not all were US spec.
