If I have to have a car from that time period, give me a 2.7 RS, I know i can keep it running (but this comes from a guy who drives a Porsche past Ferrari NA headquarters 3 times a week, while the ferraris just sit there looking shiny)

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I love that car. One of Pinifarina's best, most timeless designs if not
the
best design. It's also nice to see the owner has honoured the original badging and not defiled it with a Ferrari emblem.
Wow I'm really surprised at all the Dino love on the Porsche forum! Funny thing is my buddy, also a Porsche guy, sent me some pics of a red Dino GT on the 14 inch cromodoras that came into his shop just last night. I was never a huge fan of the 246, or honestly even the big 365s of that era, but they are striking. I now this may sound strange, but they were so cheap when I was a hemmings reading kid, and so often maligned by ferrari nuts, that I could never bring myself to pay serious money for a Dino, despite all redeeming qualities, endearing charm, etc.! If I have to have a car from that time period, give me a 2.7 RS, I know i can keep it running (but this comes from a guy who drives a Porsche past Ferrari NA headquarters 3 times a week, while the ferraris just sit there looking shiny)
The Miura was the only italian roadcar that really captured my imagination from that time, early 70s. I still regret letting sinatra's example slip through my fingers in 2003.
I also loved the Ghibli, even if it was a dog in many others' opinions!
I think thats true here, but if you hang in other crowds the love does not always flow the same way...I have been to events where people just love beautiful cars, and to some where they just love (insert brand here) ONLY - wierd
The original Dino.
It allowed Ferrari's son to go racing. I owned this one for about 5 years. It was designed & assembled by Pininfarina for the first years....then assembled in the Ferrari factory for the last couple of years. Its success prompted Ferrari to make their own. Fiat funded the project as a favor to Ferrari. So they got to put their name on it, but they never really touched it. And of course, by putting their name on it, the value instantly went down. Nice driving car w/ a 2.0 or 2.4 engine (depending on the year).
This is my brother's Dino (along with his 330GTC coupe). He sold the Dino last year to a European buyer. It was a perfect, 16K mile car. For those who know these cars, this was the well-known "Scoblick Dino" from PA and had won a number of concours awards. He got absolute top dollar for it. He still has the 330 and plans on holding on to it. It's a 1967 car which is fully original, including paint, and has approximately 13K miles.
A few years back I had the opportunity purchase a Dino 308GT4 at what would have been a very good price but I passed since it was not my "Ferrari of choice" looking back I probably should have just grabbed it despite it's less than stellar looks just to have the experience if owning a Ferrari.
Yeah I'm happy about the love, although try saying you love a toyota/nissan product around here and tell me what the outcome is! Growing up I felt like it was bright line, Porsche guys hated Ferraris and Ferrari guys were too busy scouring barns and flipping cars to the Japanese to even care, but again I'm talking about collectors. As a child of the 80s/90s (32 y/o) I personally loved 60s ferraris, and 80s/90s ferraris, and I loved old Speedsters and Spyders much more than 911s as a kid, well except the turbo, all kids love turbos! Still if I received many a lecture from adults on the evils of the other side. Maybe a few of the aircooled guys still carry around a chip, but it's good to see that the newer generation of owners appreciates both.
The collector gene is strong in your clan! Love that garage pic, esp the Weber poster! The cars are so mint!
Thats your solution Phil, buy an old Speedster, and no one will think you're crazy for driving it 1K a year and rubbing it with a diaper the rest of the time. Plus you can get collector's insurance, peanuts. At least it will reward your latent tendencies, you might actually make money when you sell!
Best,
Hans
Well, if we are talking 2000GT's and 70's Z cars we are all fine, start talking Prius, Camry and Altima and your getting banned
(Owned my share of Z's and Surpra's back in the mid 80's)
Nope. I've been the collector car route - had a '65 etype coupe that was restored to 99.96 points; came in second at the JCNA nationals, but NEVER drove it (my C4S was a daily commuter next to the Jaguar). My wife got real tired of looking at a potful of $$ sitting under cover in the garage for 3 years, so I sold it to a collector in Colorado. Of course my brother ended up buying it from him and resold it a few years ago for more than twice what he paid for it!
The Ferraris aren't mine. I've driven those cars - they're incredible machines for sure. As Marc says, the 330 is pure sex on wheels.
Dino = sexy, sexy car. tough to find a good example (so I've read)
almost picked one up in Palm Springs ~ 7 years ago, it was $50K then. To see the prices these days....well, hurts a little
I remember.
This was the forgotten Ferrari for a long time. As I recall, their first car without the V-12. I thought about buying one, remembering how much I liked them as a kid, and was a bit shocked by the price and sudden interest. It felt like my crappy local sports team I followed as a kid just won the championship and now I have to deal with all the bandwagoners.
Yeah Salayc, I feel the same way......saw one in Denver for sale, in 1973, $6,000. Yellow. OMG, I wanted that, but......always my favorite. Then there was this 300 Mercedes on a trailer in Dubuque one rainy night......$1500. Damn!
The silver Dino on the previous page with "DINO" plate was his. Having sold it last year, he really doesn't miss it. Once he makes up his mind to part with a car, it's history. He loves his 330GTC and plans on keeping it for a long time - actually drives it on sunny weekends, and it's a terrific investment.
