Hot Wheels Elite: Ferrari Dino 246 GT

Post by [KRAFTIG] » Sun Nov 22, 2015 11:27 am

Well I've been hunting this son of a bitch for almost 2 years... It seems later in life I've started to appreciate classic Ferraris of past. When this model was available it was ~$80-$95CND with plenty of stock available. Unfortunately for me I didn't buy one! Fast forward to today, a local seller, I'd say a diecast collecting friend/car guy was getting out of the hobby, he had one for sale, I jumped on the opportunity. $75 later I finally have one in my collection! Thanks David!

The model itself is good, no CMC by any stretch on the imagination. Paint is fair, though there are rough spots here and there. Detail outside and inside are above average. I'm soo00o giddy to have a red one in my collection. Enjoy the pics!! :love: :love: :love:

Sounds like a great price, as these rarely pop up for sale anymore.

Love the lines on the Dino. I really disliked these (& the similar looking Porsche 904) growing up. That all changed when my dad's co-worker bought a '74 GTS in the late '80's. Seeing one in person & then going for a ride completely changed my take on these.
