Question Does the 250 look like the 288????

Could someone post pics of the 288??? Ive dreamt of having a 288 GTO since i was about 7 years old, i have diecast models, pictures, books, EVERYTHING you could think of, of this car, and i was just wondering if someone could post some pics on it, thanks.

I wouldn't doubt it. They often go for $1,000,000+

It might of been a replica. Only way to know for sure was if you heard something special...

And as you know already, the 250GTO does not look like the 288GTO. However, 308's are often confused with 288GTOs so be careful.
