Default Automatic Ferrari

Yesterday, I was getting a pizza at a local pub so I would have something to eat when I was drunk... and I noticed that there was an older Ferrari in the shitty used car lot across the street. So I went over to take a look. It was a nice, red, 328. But when I look inside, it was automatic! I weeped for the poor Ferrari, which had lost its dignity because the wife of a rich busnissman can't drive stick. It makes me sad. What do you all think?

I'm definitely no expert on Ferrari's but I don't think you were able to get the 328 with an automatic. It's propably like graywolf624 says if you haven't confused it with a 456 but I don't think that's the case.

Well - it could have been a Mondial - kind of easy to confuse with a 308/328 series if you are drunk (even a 400i would appear too big - unless you are REALLY drunk) - and the important thing it was available as an automatic valeo tranny from what I recall (too lazy to google it this morning)

If you are VERY drunk ... it could have been anything

As RC45 says it should probably been a mondial , i dont think the 328 EVER came with an auto

I don't know what ferrari could be but in my opinion put an automatic gearbox in a ferrari is a sacrilege...the only thing that could be worst would be a ferrari diesel :x
