Dino, Dino and Dino again.

 

What a first name for some of the most exciting vintage cars! 


Fiat Dino, the Spider ( Credit Artcurial )







Fiat Dino Coupé, very Aston Martine-esque. ( Credit David Hayton )





And the Queen of the Dino, at least for me, the Ferrari Dino! ( Credit ClassicCar )









I said it many times, but they don't make cars like that / those anymore. Or almost!

Best,

Nicolas

My God Father had one, it is very dear to my heart. Alas, not easy to find in good condition, and even worse, not easy to fund anymore...

 
By: amanico : October 13th, 2021-16:18

Yes they are becoming very rare.

 
By: nasseriq : October 13th, 2021-16:24

Indeed, I see them less and less.

 
By: amanico : October 13th, 2021-16:54

All gorgeous

 
By: Gelato Monster : October 13th, 2021-16:33

I knew you would love them.

 
By: amanico : October 13th, 2021-16:54

LOL 🥂

 
By: Gelato Monster : October 13th, 2021-23:55

Yes, and you know what? We are damn right! :)

 
By: amanico : October 14th, 2021-06:27

Fantastic, the

bunch of them! Cheers Marc

Definitely, my good friend.

 
By: amanico : October 13th, 2021-19:56

some are there which get close to it

 
By: penfriend : October 13th, 2021-18:13
Italian, naturally ...  

I had the 4C in mind, as well as the Cayman and the... Alpine.

 
By: amanico : October 13th, 2021-19:55

in type yes but comparing the Dino in styling

 
By: penfriend : October 13th, 2021-20:04
the 4C fits best of these three ...  

Because of its italian origins?

 
By: amanico : October 13th, 2021-21:08

IMHO its difficult to find modern comparison with Dino

 
By: Gelato Monster : October 14th, 2021-01:11
its exotically curvy yet petite, polite yet sexy . cayman and alpine is close yet a bit lean and fit compare to 4C (aerodynamically cleaner ?) Personally I love 4C's richer detail yet different curve at more drastic angulary .

Yes, you may be right. Nice description.

 
By: amanico : October 14th, 2021-06:22

great description! and for more curves check this out

Wow, the Spider!!!

 
By: amanico : October 14th, 2021-10:30

you meant this one?

 
By: Gelato Monster : October 14th, 2021-13:37
look at those louboutin yet this one is very good animation of 4C www.4c-forums.com page-3#post-311746

No, the spider, the car, not the shoes. ;)

 
By: amanico : October 14th, 2021-14:16

there are many exciting shoes in this thread :-)

 
By: penfriend : October 14th, 2021-15:48

I will have to go back to the link... :)))

 
By: amanico : October 14th, 2021-20:58

🤣

 
By: Gelato Monster : October 15th, 2021-07:13

:)))

 
By: amanico : October 15th, 2021-08:32

same design language for me

 
By: penfriend : October 14th, 2021-09:22
but not surprising as the 4C was built in commemoration to the Alfa 33 Stradale. And that one and the Dino Ferrari do share a lot of things imo

I can't wait to see yours in the real life.

 
By: amanico : October 14th, 2021-10:28

I almost bought red coupe way back when I was quite young, I was driving my 73 2002 tii at the time…thanks for the memories Nico

 
By: oyster case : October 13th, 2021-19:00

We have many good memories of these cars. I still have in mind the 246 Dino from the Persuaders. ;)

 
By: amanico : October 13th, 2021-19:56

I had a black 2002 that I loved.

 
By: judson : October 13th, 2021-23:27
I bought it without my father’s help, as a result he never liked the car, eventually helping me replace it with a Ford Taurus SHO. THe Ford was much faster, but I don’t reminisce about it like I do my 2002. Brings back some good memories.

The car was special! Fun story about your Dad lol

 
By: oyster case : October 14th, 2021-00:00

I totally understand that. The Ford Taurus was certainly less " special " than the 2002.

 
By: amanico : October 14th, 2021-06:21

The rear window of the Ferrari Dino. Such a beauty itself

 
By: brauner : October 13th, 2021-19:16

Yes, really.

 
By: amanico : October 13th, 2021-19:56

very true. one of the most beautiful at every detail/section

 
By: Gelato Monster : October 14th, 2021-00:03

In the top three of my favorite vintage cars. Definitely.

 
By: amanico : October 14th, 2021-06:26

love them all! What a great trio there!!

 
By: DouglasM : October 13th, 2021-20:46

Me too. Dino is a magic name!

 
By: amanico : October 13th, 2021-21:04

Chairs & Flairs

 
By: enjoythemusic : October 14th, 2021-14:10
Came solo close to getting a Dino too instead of the Euro 308QV.

Aaaah, not the same thing!

 
By: amanico : October 14th, 2021-14:16

Please bring back the Ferrari Dino...

 
By: mdg : October 14th, 2021-15:58
...give it about 350hp, make it light, manual transmission, rear-wheel drive, and less than $150k. I know...I'm dreaming.

1000 Kilos, 350 HP, that would be perfect.
