    Just listed for sale:

    1972 Ferrari Dino 246 GT – US Version


    A 2 owner original example with 30,000 original miles




    Chassis No. 04570

    Engine No. 142536



    Specs: 195 bhp, 2,418 cc dohc V-6 engine, five-speed manual transaxle, four-wheel independent suspension with A-arms, coil springs and Koni telescopic shock absorbers, four-wheel ventilated disc brakes. Wheelbase: 92.1”

    In order to honor the memory of his late son and continue his developmental work on a new V-6 engine, Enzo Ferrari directed Vittorio Jano to finish Dino's project. It was not only Ferrari's first mid-engine production car, but also marked the debut of a new Ferrari-based Dino brand that was entirely devoid of Ferrari badging. In 1969, the Dino received a larger and more powerful 2,418 cc engine, and its reported 146 mph top speed and race-inspired handling quickly impressed Ferrari fans. With production of approximately 3,800 examples continuing through 1974, the Dino 246 was available both as a hardtop GT and a targa-style GTS.

    Chassis 04570 is the ultimate collectors dream! This two owner, US export Dino was purchased new in 1974 by a resident of Portland, Oregon; he owned the car for 3 years. In May 1977 showing 18,600 miles it was acquired by an avid sports and race car aficionado from the original caretaker and has been meticulously well preserved in his very private collection since it was discovered in June 2011.



    It is an amazingly original car, including the rare factory black paint, tan hides and carpet. This 30k mile time capsule is fitted with power windows, Blaupunkt radio and air conditioning. Additions include tastefully applied headlight covers; it also comes with a car cover.



    Original spare, emergency roadside kit with pouch, leather bound manuals, 34 years of service receipts, spare and accessories accompany the car. Recognized in 246 Dino Registry, this example makes an exceptional “preservation class” candidate in any major concours or show arena!

    Meticulously Well-Maintained Survivor!
    Two-Owners, Complete Known History form New!
    USA Model, Equipped with Power Windows & A/C!
    Very Rare Factory Black!
    Books, Records & Roadside Kit!


    Note: Titled as a 1974



    Only: $205,000.00

    Plus a Ferrari badge tagged to its rear...

    And no toolkit....

    And how can it be a 195bhp Dino since it's a USA car, not a Euro model?

    Well, it can't.

    Just another seller quoting Euro specs for a car, would be my guess.

    good looking car, but $205K, woo hoo!! That's a nice number to think about for all you GT owners.

    Got some pretty good dings in the door on the driver's side. Paint looks kind of weak, and no tools. That sure seems like all the money and then some.

    But, ultimately the market dictates the price, if they get their number, more power to 'em.

    Whew! Selling like hotcakes, those Dinos.
    It seems that Dino pricing in the US has decisively broken through the psychological barrier of $200,000. Asking prices over 200K is no longer a hindrance.

    At some point the price is the price. It was nicer than the one that sold in the 600s a while back.

    Jose at DriverSource told me he thinks these will be $1M at some point. In my view, the prettiest and sexiest car ever made (even if beauty is in the proverbial eye of this biased beholder).
