Ferrari Dino 246 GT - 1968 1/24 Scale Diecast Model by Bburago

This model of the 1968 Ferrari Dino 246 GT is about 7 inches long, 2.75 inches wide and 2 inches high. It is highly detailed, with beautiful body paint and accurate markings. Bburago does very high quality models and this one is not the exception. Headlights, tail lights and turn signals are made of separate plastic pieces which makes the whole model look very realistic. Moreover, side mirrors are also made of separate pieces. 

Doors can open to reveal a very detailed and accurate interior with some touches of color on parts such as seats, seat belt buckles and even on the instrument panel.

The models we have are the ones that come in a display tray box of 4 models per box (The type of box that would be on a counter in a store). These are not the models that come in individual window box. They will be expertly packed for shipping (they will be better protected than an in an individual window box).

These are really not toys and they will not survive if taken for a spin on the sandbox. The minimum age recommended is 7 years old.

Dino was a marque for mid-engined, rear-drive sports cars produced by Ferrari from 1968 to 1976. Used for models with engines with fewer than 12 cylinders, it was an attempt by the company to offer a relatively low-cost sports car. The Ferrari name remained reserved for its premium V-12 and flat 12 models until 1976, when "Dino" was retired in favor of full Ferrari branding.

The Dino 246 was the first Ferrari model produced in high numbers. It is lauded by many for its intrinsic driving qualities and groundbreaking design. In 2004, Sports Car International placed the car at number six on its list of Top Sports Cars of the 1970s. Motor Trend Classic placed the 206/246 at number seven in their list of the 10 "Greatest Ferraris of all time".
