    I just listed my FIAT Dino for sale in the sale section, if you have any questions, let me know. I will warn you that those of you that worry about "proper tools" or "proper manuals" won't like my car, those of you that want a driver will love it.

    Some of you know, I purchased a 360 2 months ago, I just can't afford 2 exotics and yes I consider the FIAT Dino Spider a exotic. Hard thing to sell since I likely will never be able to replace the Dino but I have not driven it in 2 months since getting the 360.

    I will list it on ebay in a week or so.

    It is so...

    I just don't have the room for 2 cars nor the finances to keep both. It was hard to do since I know I will only have the 360 2 years or so and then I will have nothing. My wife was willing to let me keep the Dino and in one year sell the car I used less but its done, its for sale.

    This is an outstanding car. I'm in shock you're letting it go.

    This needs to go to a great new owner.

    That car looks great. I wish I had the resources, I'd snap it up.

    Pretty tough to find in the classified ad section here. I went to OTHER CARS and scanned all there, reordered, scanned again, no luck. Found it in the Ferrari section and realize while it has that DNA its not helping buyers get to you.

    Best to add a link to make this easy:
    (mods - apologies if this is faux pas, although I couldn't think of why it would be)

    Hi Mike,
    Have you attended the French & Italian show in Van Nuys, in the last few years? On one occasion, I met and chatted with a West Coast local, who's Fiat Dino was parked near my Rachel. Was that you?

    I have loved & lusted over the Fiat Dino for the longest time - - but, with Rachel (Mondial t) and Ingrid (MB 280SL) as room mates in their flat (my garage), there's just no extra $ or room for your sweet Fiat Dino.

    Since your pricing is so reasonable, I suspect that my (how can I do this) anguish, will soon abate - due to what I'm sure will be .. a very quick sale !!! :)

    Cheers & good luck ..........

    Hank

    I have been there once but there are 2 FIAT Dino's that are semi-regulars there.

    I generally don't show my car, I go to shows with it and park it in the parking lot, just because when I want to go home, I want to leave and not be stuck any longer until x time :)

    I agree 100% with your comments about the classified ads section on FCHAT. It is very hard to search. Why? The Power that Is has told me "That is just the way it is." That part of FCHAT could be a lot more useful and productive if a better (read simply as "a") search function was incorporated within the classifieds.

    LOL.
    Yes, and then, after buying a Fiat Dino, if Uro bought a Lancia Stratos, it would be the full trifecta!

    Well, congrats and condolences all at the same time!!

    Enjoy your 360, that's a LOT of Ferrari for the money!

    I should probably follow your lead, I know my apartment complex would appreciate it! LOL!
