Why it matters
The Quattrovalvole was the four-valve version of the mid-engined 308 V8 with a 3.0-litre engine. Ferrari's 308 was the mid-engined successor of the Dino, and the four-valve heads came with the 1984 model year according to a fan source. The car is best known through the Magnum, P.I. series.

No production figures recorded yet.
History
The fan source states that over 11,400 steel-bodied 308 models were built between 1975 and 1985. That count covers the whole 308 family, not the Quattrovalvole alone.
The same source gives a figure of around 230 hp for the 1984 QV, up from 205 hp on the 1980 GTSi.
