Why it matters

The Fiat Dino Spider was the road car built so that Ferrari's new 2-litre V6 could be homologated for Formula 2: at least 500 engines were needed quickly, and Ferrari's own Dino 206 GT would have taken too long. It carries Ferrari's engine in a conventional Fiat-engineered chassis with Pininfarina bodywork.

Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.

History

The engine was named Dino after Enzo Ferrari's son Alfredo, who helped design it before his early death. The Spider was presented at the 1966 Turin Motor Show and the Bertone-bodied 2+2 coupe followed in 1967.

The first Ferrari-built 1987 cc V6 made 160 hp at 7500 rpm, with aluminium block and head and a wet sump. In 1969 both Dino bodies received a 2418 cc cast-iron-block engine of 180 hp at 6600 rpm.
