Hey, guys. Sweet! I'm adding my pictures up above in my first post. The color of Henry's car is a dark blue. Absolutely gorgeous. It was late in the day, so my pictures aren't great, but it was cool!!!!

I've always wondered about them. Are they "nimble and quick" or just plain fast?

The engine noise is wonderful. All that burbling when you tool around, and then a deeper howl than the S when you get on it.
You feel like your deep in a tub, like the S. The fenders are way taller than our car, but not obtrusively so.
You have to love the lap belts and unassisted steering... The brakes and steering feel very different than the S. 'Course the S's steering is, I think, the best part of our car -- few compare, even modern cars.

A dino is a Ferrari, it was named for Enzo Ferrari's son who died at a young age. It has a 2.4 liter V-6 engine. It ran from 1969-1974. They came from the factory without any Ferrari markings on them at all however it is common to see them with Ferrari badges on them now since some owners have them put on during restorations. Beautiful machines.
