Nice yellow Dino, you KNOW I love Dinos, and Ron, Dino was Enzo's only son, who designed the V6. Enzo was all about V12s. Tragically Dino died young. The 308 was a V8 version of Dino's fabulous V6. 2.4 liter 6 cylinder, hence the name 246. 3 liter V8, hence 308. Older Ferraris were named for the displacement of ONE cylinder, because Enzo knew they were all V12s. 250 is 250cc per cyl. x12 equals 3 liter, yes those Ferrari V12s were only 3 liter.

Oh I didn't know that Dino was the Enzo's only son.Are you sure.I knew he died,way back in 56,at age 24,from MS.But I always thought there was another brother.Yea Testarossa,oh wait that was the daughters name.No I'm just joking:DThe Dino is one of my favorite Ferraris too.
