1968 Ferrari Dino 206 GT Drive - The Sound of Vintage Italian Greatness (POV Binaural Audio) 

TBH, we always remember the sound of Lancia Stratos with this similar engine as amazing, so no wonder this one sounds just as good. However, this is no ordinary V6, as it's 65 degrees angle, and have a crankshaft with separate crankpins like a boxer.

And today we have a v6 that can outperformed their v8 siblings.

@@daingfaisal I don't get why people always hate on V6s

There's a big "DINO" button right on the steering wheel so we'll forgive it 😅

@@gotworc Americans just hate on anything that's not a V8 when v6s can literally wipe the floor with them.

You and me both! I'm mad that it's for sale. I'm mad that I don't have 600k to throw away!

@@TedwardDrives at least u have 600k not to throw away

@@averagebro413 - Car owned by the Bond Group, a high end collector car dealer. He's only lucky enough to be able to drive it.

But you have so much fun!

thanks for giving love to her paint color (colour to us yanks) Dude. I understand idiots don’t love a classy green on anything cool. it’s my top-2 option, with silver. anything cool looks super badass in silver & super classy in this green.

Thank you! I only describe what I'm feeling. tough to describe a car if you don't actually drive it haha

Cars are MEANT to be wound out, including the very expensive ones that would cost a fortune to repair if they ever broke! In fact, some of them NEED to be wound out on occasion, just to stay healthy!

Also love the way he shoots the drive -- shows us the road ahead, the driver POV, not the driver's face the whole time. Which is annoying. Like when they play music over an engine note.

@@yankee2yankee216 just to stay healthy? Hmmm doesn't seem to be true

@@Maximus20778 it's true, injectors and fuel lines can get clogged if not used at full power for very long times, as well as seals and stuff too. You don't need to floor it all the time, but it's good to let a car stretch it's legs every week or so.

I'd imagine there were fights about that glass. the curves are insanity to produce

@@TedwardDrives wonder what a replacement would run you now...

There are in fact fiat logos on the block

@@TedwardDrives The motors in the Fiat coupès & spiders were detuned versions of the ones in the 206GT & all the engines were made by Fiat.

206 exist because of Formula 2 homologation requirement. FIA regulations at the time stated that F2 race engines had to be based on production car engines and in order to homologate the race engine 500 road cars powered by that unit has to be produced within 12 months (65-66). Ferrari being a small manufacturer didn't have the capacity to do so and hence came into an agreement with Fiat for the production of the engines and development of road cars. But yes Italian 2.0L tax threshold did exist for the domestic market.

I hope that the classic reviews encourage you to go down a research rabbit hole of these vehicles! I try to dust off the surface and then really show off the driving experience so it gives the history context and meaning

That's awesome! Wow thats pretty incredible. thanks for telling me

I think i need a classic car in my life!

How about a classic mustang to start?

I appreciate that!

@@TedwardDrives Ted, I have to give you a lot of credit for your skills. I've been carrying a Class A CDL for about 50 years and matching gears matters! It's a sad thing that auto-boxes are the standard of the day and most people think that's just fine. They just don't realize what they're missing... but we do! I spent a few years in sales in a Ferrari shop "in another lifetime" and we had a 246 in the shop awaiting a replacement head for what seemed like forever. Even in 1990, parts were hard to come by and anything coming from Italy took forever plus a couple of years!! A suggestion that might make the "special" Italian steering wheels a bit easier to live with comes from driving quite few way back when. People always seemed to comment that the steering wheel was so uncomfortable in a Ferrari or Fiat or just about any Italian car. If you take your seat and get comfortable and then forget the "10 & 2 position" that the old driving instructors used to demand. Move your hands down to about "8 & 4" and push the wheel up and down as necessary instead of pulling it. It feels right and works just fine. You don't get worn out trying to stretch so far and I enjoyed the ride much more!

Righttt, those L series engines really kick it

@@snow_en Heck yea, I own a 280z myself with a built L28, triple webers. One of the best sounding engines if you ask me.

@@AnthonyCessor oh no way!! I saw that fly by video awhile back. Awesome car man ✌️

@@snow_en Thanks man!

Some day!!!

Right, it was very like the trashing 914s got compared to 911s. Looked down upon, and I never understood why.

Thank you!!!

True, but I wish he did some double clutching every now and again.

@@SoulDaddy33 I think it has a synchro gearbox, so double clutching would help synchro life, but not essential.

Great taste those boys. They never cease to stun with inventory

(Cont.) Just like our roads here in the N.W 🌟🙏😚

I dont know any modern car that puts the steering wheel below the top of your legs

@@TedwardDrives I meant room on the sides, I find it comfortable to have my knees out.

That was a close one! haha you chose correct

de rien

Ahem, as I can tell, there was just one aluminium-bodied 308 GT4, chassis 8020, made for Luigi Chinetti's NART racing team to race at Le Mans. It's a pure race car built to race at Le Mans.... Apart from that, the 308 GT4 was steel bodied. The 308GTB was initially GRP and then became steel bodied.

Thank you!

Thankful for the sidewall on these roads!
