not a big fan of the dino mainly due to its lackluster performance, but in that shot it sure looks good.

Considering it was the brainchild of all the rear engine Ferraris like 355, 360, 430, etc. it's an iconic Ferrari. They're very beautiful cars when the heritage is taken into consideration.

Enzo didn't feel it "deserved" the Ferrari badge, so he named it Dino after his son.
