More than 150 Dinos and over 300 customers from all over the world flocked to Maranello and Ferrari on Saturday, 30th June for an event celebrating the 50th anniversary of the road debut of the first production car.
The Dino, one of the world's best-loved and biggest-selling Ferraris, had a rather long gestation. Fitted with a six-cylinder engine designed by Enzo Ferrari's son, from whom it has taken its name, the saloon was first presented as a prototype at the Paris Motor Show in October 1965. A year later it went on display at the Turin Motor Show but was only officially launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show the following November.
Over the same weekend in Singapore, the local audience was treated to a public showing of a 1972 Ferrari Dino 246 GTS, when it was unveiled as part of the inaugural Fullerton Concours d'Elegance event, which took place from 29th June to 1st July.
