    Congratulations, that is a very clean looking example of one my all time favorites. I hope your drive it and not just polish it.

    Looks extremely clean for the vintage, and that's a marvelous shade of blue (kinda like my Civic SI!). And I'm glad to see one that still has the original Dino badges and hasn't been "Ferrariized"! Enjoy it!

    So you have a couple Porsches... & a Mercedes or 2. Now a Ferrari. What do you want to be buried in?

    Lovely car, great color! The more I see these Dinos the more I'd like to have one.

    What does the V6 sound like? Anyone have a clip? I'd REALLY appreciate it...

    Very nice! So were you able to work them on that $68K price they were so stuck on?

    Yea I got it for under $65k. I've been looking for a while and though there have been cheaper ones, this is the best all around one I've found. It also has a good history and has been worked on by excellent mechanics. No stories. Maybe I'm paying a little more than average, but I think the car is well above average.

    Congrats! Glad to hear you didn't let that beauty get away!

    Too bad you don't live in Cali, as I would love to see that car in person.

    Enjoy!

    DROOL!!!!

    I don't care what other folks say, the 246 is the most beautiful machine ever created by humankind. You my friend, are one lucky dog!

    If you're in central VA, you'll certainly need a friend to help you keep it looking sharp, right? "Have Griot's buffer, will travel."

    Hehe, feel free to come up. I have a room full of car cleaning supplies! (Too many cars, too little time...)
