GT4 would've been much roomier. They are taller also..
Also a very underrated car in terms of performance.

Or is it possible Kirby is talking about a 308 GT4? They had a little back seat so it would stand to reason that the seat might not go back as far? Kirby what say you?

Unfortunately a lot of exotic sports cars are too small for us tall guys; although I had a 308 and don’t remember it being that bad. In fact my recollection is that it was roomier than my Pantera, but it’s been a long time ago so my memory could be questionable…
>>>I drove your Ferrari 308 from Texas to California to deliver it to new (and current) owner Rick Moseley. Your recollection is correct. They have quite a bit more room than a Pantera inside, and are certainly more comfortable. I'm six feet tall and had
to have the seat several clicks forward of the rearmost position to be seated correctly.
I would suggest that the 308 Kirby tried had 'issues' and the seat wasn't all the way back.
I've seen the 308 that was used in Magnum PI; they had to cut the floorpan and bolt the seat to the floor and Tom Selleck was still never really 'in' that car; his head stuck out through the top and there is no way they could fit the roof on.
