- Driving 1 of 152 Ferrari Dino 206 GT. This is 1 of 7 finished in Verde Scuro and it features a mid mounted 2.0L Aluminum V6 that revs to 8,000 RPM. Its gated 5 speed transmission and manual steering make this car incredibly rewarding to drive.

"That's just the V6...its nothing special" - is what I heard growing up. Boy were those folks wrong! Please enjoy the incredible sounds of this rare 206 GT and forgive me for being tongue tied saying 206 Dino GT in the intro.
TBH, we always remember the sound of Lancia Stratos with this similar engine as amazing, so no wonder this one sounds just as good. However, this is no ordinary V6, as it's 65 degrees angle, and have a crankshaft with separate crankpins like a boxer.
And today we have a v6 that can outperformed their v8 siblings.
@@daingfaisal I don't get why people always hate on V6s
There's a big "DINO" button right on the steering wheel so we'll forgive it 😅
@@gotworc Americans just hate on anything that's not a V8 when v6s can literally wipe the floor with them.
This car, this colour, this sound, this video… perfect! This has shot to the top of my lotto list.
You and me both! I'm mad that it's for sale. I'm mad that I don't have 600k to throw away!
@@TedwardDrives at least u have 600k not to throw away
@@averagebro413 - Car owned by the Bond Group, a high end collector car dealer. He's only lucky enough to be able to drive it.
But you have so much fun!
thanks for giving love to her paint color (colour to us yanks) Dude. I understand idiots don’t love a classy green on anything cool. it’s my top-2 option, with silver. anything cool looks super badass in silver & super classy in this green.
Wow, 2000lbs, 9lbs/hp, double wishbones, disk brakes, and 60s sounds/styling! That sounds absolutely ideal for having fun at legal speeds!
The visibility out the rear of that curved glass is insane, beautiful car
I'd imagine there were fights about that glass. the curves are insanity to produce
@@TedwardDrives wonder what a replacement would run you now...
I love that you actually drive the cars spiritedly when reviewing them. So many reviewers just putter around at 2k rpms and go on and on about random shit for 30 minutes, it's refreshing to hear what cars are like when being revved out. That's why I love watching this channel.
Thank you! I only describe what I'm feeling. tough to describe a car if you don't actually drive it haha
Cars are MEANT to be wound out, including the very expensive ones that would cost a fortune to repair if they ever broke! In fact, some of them NEED to be wound out on occasion, just to stay healthy!
Also love the way he shoots the drive -- shows us the road ahead, the driver POV, not the driver's face the whole time. Which is annoying. Like when they play music over an engine note.
@@yankee2yankee216 just to stay healthy? Hmmm doesn't seem to be true
@@Maximus20778 it's true, injectors and fuel lines can get clogged if not used at full power for very long times, as well as seals and stuff too. You don't need to floor it all the time, but it's good to let a car stretch it's legs every week or so.
This guy is living the dream right there :) Amazing!
God the noises old Italian sports cars make is incredible
Just lovely.
I always loved a small lightweight car. They are so much fun.
Perhaps the most beautiful car ever made imo!
My favorite part about the Dino is the view out from the inside. The round front fenders are visible in a way that somewhat resembles the look of old race cars like the 330 p4 almost which is cool to me
Now these are pops & bangs I can get behind, absolute music to my ears. I've said that the Celica had gorgeous interior but man, that dash, gated manual and thin, monstrous wooden wheel to give you a pain in your palms after manouvering that car around the town for a while... it doesn't get better than that!
I remember seeing my first 246. I was 12 years old and stood next to a yellow one parked at the kerb in Liege, Belgium. I was looking down onto it, even as a kid. What a beautiful, low shape!
This has to be one of the best sounding cars out there!
You've come really far, Ted. Congrats!
Watching this video, the sound of the engine and the shifting brought a real satisfying smile to my face!😎 Thanks man.
What a car, probably my all time favourite and my ultimate dream car.. the shape is just unbelievable
Looks like it shifts very smooth! Impressive.
Your content has made me learn more and more about cars, its so amazing. I hope you continue to make more of these!!
I hope that the classic reviews encourage you to go down a research rabbit hole of these vehicles! I try to dust off the surface and then really show off the driving experience so it gives the history context and meaning
Well, the sound of this Dino V6 is to me one of the best ever. And also in the V8 upgraded variant, it was a great engine. But the Dino 206 itself is something really gorgeous
Truly Awesome!, thanks for share this great video and as you've said what a sound track!
You’re great. It’s a “sweeping” hand. Thank you I LOVE these videos.
I absolutely adore the Dino. I still remember the first time I saw one; a yellow 246 GTS with the targa top at a small Cars and Coffee in Pennsylvania. Literally could not stop staring at it as a 10 year old kid.
a car of disarming beauty ... and a wonderful sound
so cool you get around to making these high quality vids on cars i love to drive in gran turismo
I bought a used 74’ Fiat Spider when I was 18 years old in 1974 and owned for five years during university. Probably spent $10,000 in maintenance and repairs! However, watching this video reminds me how truly lucky I was at the time and brings back some great memories. The Dino is my all time favourite car even though it was totally unattainable at the time. I am 6’-5” and would never be able to fit anyway. Great video!!!
Fantastic review as always Tedster!
Great job on your review. What a phenomenal car!
You’re by far my favorite automotive TH-camr, this videos are incredible!
Thank you!!!
Love the Dinos . Amazing engine sounds. I remember years ago people overlooked these cars along with the 308gt4
Right, it was very like the trashing 914s got compared to 911s. Looked down upon, and I never understood why.
Really enjoyed riding along. Thanks
This Dino has the perfect colour and looks amazing , Dino's are one of the sexiest Italian cars build . Nice drive in these backroads this time of the year , and than that sound...Thanks.
I could not belive when I saw notification... that's awesome!!! I'm watching now...
This is a true car lovers channel - they’re meant to be driven!! Thank you for immersing us into these stunning cars - each one a joy.
This is a superb overview Ted - THANKYOU VERY MUCH. i had a 246GT on '76 ,drove it across the country . It is one of the Dearest experiences of my life. You capture the esthetics of the experience extremely well. i applaud Your intuitive sensibilities. Very pure and accurate - a great nostalgic drive
(Cont.) Just like our roads here in the N.W 🌟🙏😚
Lamborghini Miura SV/J - The Legendary Sound of Vintage and Rare V12 Nosie and Pops and Crackers of a Loud Straight Pipe!
Some day!!!
Nice gearchanging! Good to hear you feeling the gears in going up the box and matching the revs on downchanges too. Fabulous car, well driven. Thanks for sharing.
True, but I wish he did some double clutching every now and again.
@@SoulDaddy33 I think it has a synchro gearbox, so double clutching would help synchro life, but not essential.
OMG. The noises that car makes ! Sensational !
Yes!!! A classic car! I was missing this type of videos 😁
The 206 only existed due to Italian Tax Laws at the time, as cars with engines 2 litres capacity or smaller were much cheaper to tax than cars over 2 litres in capacity and they were all made in 1968. The engine was also used in the Fiat Dino coupe and spider (around 4700 made between 1966 and 1969), though the engine was in the front.
There are in fact fiat logos on the block
@@TedwardDrives The motors in the Fiat coupès & spiders were detuned versions of the ones in the 206GT & all the engines were made by Fiat.
206 exist because of Formula 2 homologation requirement. FIA regulations at the time stated that F2 race engines had to be based on production car engines and in order to homologate the race engine 500 road cars powered by that unit has to be produced within 12 months (65-66). Ferrari being a small manufacturer didn't have the capacity to do so and hence came into an agreement with Fiat for the production of the engines and development of road cars. But yes Italian 2.0L tax threshold did exist for the domestic market.
Gorgeous car and I love the colour
You have one of the best channels. Great job 👏 thank you
Thank you!
The consciousness that you have describing the car is peerless 👌🏼
Art in motion
What a beauty! Literally living my dream!
Thank You Ted, you just made my day 💌
I live quite near the Goodwood you mentioned for this car! What a sound. I’d never heard the poor man’s Dino before. Epic. Those burbles on the overrun. 😀
You're still the best rev-matcher in the business. Love to hear you go through the gears!!!!!
I appreciate that!
@@TedwardDrives Ted, I have to give you a lot of credit for your skills. I've been carrying a Class A CDL for about 50 years and matching gears matters! It's a sad thing that auto-boxes are the standard of the day and most people think that's just fine. They just don't realize what they're missing... but we do!
I spent a few years in sales in a Ferrari shop "in another lifetime" and we had a 246 in the shop awaiting a replacement head for what seemed like forever. Even in 1990, parts were hard to come by and anything coming from Italy took forever plus a couple of years!! A suggestion that might make the "special" Italian steering wheels a bit easier to live with comes from driving quite few way back when. People always seemed to comment that the steering wheel was so uncomfortable in a Ferrari or Fiat or just about any Italian car. If you take your seat and get comfortable and then forget the "10 & 2 position" that the old driving instructors used to demand. Move your hands down to about "8 & 4" and push the wheel up and down as necessary instead of pulling it. It feels right and works just fine. You don't get worn out trying to stretch so far and I enjoyed the ride much more!
I attribute my interest in cars to you. Went to my first car show this past week as well. Thank you Tedward🤝
That's awesome! Wow thats pretty incredible. thanks for telling me
I think i need a classic car in my life!
How about a classic mustang to start?
5:00 As long as there's room I drive like this most of the time anyway lol
I dont know any modern car that puts the steering wheel below the top of your legs
@@TedwardDrives I meant room on the sides, I find it comfortable to have my knees out.
It's actually crazy how much trunk space it has for such light sport car.
I saw what it was and knew it had to be bond group, they absolutely have the best stuff for you to drive
7:53 is the epitome of an analog driving experience
Great taste those boys. They never cease to stun with inventory
Thank you for that music symphony! When cars had a infotainment of sights, sounds,feels and smells! Didn’t realize that the 206 was that different and better than the later. Maybe next drive is an aluminum bodied 308? Not as exciting as the 206 but interesting none the less. Phenomenal drive! 🎉
Ahem, as I can tell, there was just one aluminium-bodied 308 GT4, chassis 8020, made for Luigi Chinetti's NART racing team to race at Le Mans. It's a pure race car built to race at Le Mans.... Apart from that, the 308 GT4 was steel bodied. The 308GTB was initially GRP and then became steel bodied.
Vey descriptive video , nice job . Well made video .
Omg, that sound. It’s glorious.
Many Many thanks for the audio.
This is the best and only way to demonstrate the sound. I admit I'm more a 308 fan.
Could you please do an Impala SS 409..
that was fun, just watching ...i really need another vintage car in my life
Had a poster of a yellow one on my wall in my youth. I think it is one of the most beautiful designed cars EVER. Such a beautiful car.
Such a beauty
That mechanical sound is gorgeous
The best sounding car ever and the prettiest in my opinion. Always loved them ever since I was a kid. I'm fortunate enough to have a close friend who owns a 246
Amazing sounding car! Would love to see you get behind the wheel of a 240z and see your thoughts on those. Loving the classic car content!
Righttt, those L series engines really kick it
@@snow_en Heck yea, I own a 280z myself with a built L28, triple webers. One of the best sounding engines if you ask me.
@@AnthonyCessor oh no way!! I saw that fly by video awhile back. Awesome car man ✌️
@@snow_en Thanks man!
Beautiful music to my ears, full of sound and fury signifying…Dino! How I wish (ok, dream) that Ferrari would come out with series of another “affordable” masterpieces.
What a glorious sound!
God it sounds glorious!
I got a 94 Taurus sho that thing sings too gotta love the an old v6 they had so much character now they all sound the same
A Italian I worked with in the UK in the late 60s brought his Dino 206 with him from Italy - absolute magic
This is such a beautiful car
I had a red Dino 246 with red/black Daytona leather. The 206/246 was such a delicious shape and the 246 had 190 ish hp. Just a delight!
I agree with is definitely one of the most beautiful designs ever made.. gorgeous car
Such a beautiful vehicle 🔥🔥
Quel régal, un "vrai moteur" non aseptisé, une ligne intemporelle, un rêve sur 4 roues, merci pour cette vidéo
de rien
Une pure merveille d'imagination et de talent.Un immense plaisir de conduite.
sounds amazing!
Pure driving pleasure!
Your best video yet.
That sound is so amazing 🔥
The exhaust note is sheer music !
...also the cars handling appears to be good , but I wished the driver pushed it harder to enjoy the car !
Sound incredible 😋
Perhaps THE most beautiful car ever!
Hey Tom, I put in an email request on your website a few weeks ago asking some questions about getting into the field of auto journalism, would love to hear back from you. As always great vid!
Looks stunning!
Oh jeeeeez, the 206!!!! You man are THE BEST!!!!! Where did you find one??? Also in G R E E N and with an original (Catania, Sicily) number plate!!! Such a BEAUTIFUL car!!!
Dude... you're freaking lucky, that car is something else.
I was just driving that same route through Waltham and Lincoln!
Many, many moons ago, I had a day with a 246. It wasn't super quick, and the rear end could get a bit naughty, but the handling was an absolute joy.
I LOVED this car since the 1970s must be the the most beautiful car ever ,I couldn't afford one so I brought a lotus elan instead still own today
10:08 thanks for this 6 cyl 6 barreled dbl tap rev for the people of the public trust
I love the Dino fam, but sadly have never had this POV experience, so thank you for the unedited rip about. she sounds fantastic & has all the Ferrari Viscera that makes a dude’s sticker peck out. too sweet
That sound 😮
The pops on this thing OMG!!!!
What a cool car! Timeless car in my opinion
This just easily became one of my favorite cars again. When I was a kid, the Dino was one of my favorites and I feel bad for forgetting about it. What a sound, man. That car could top out at 20 mph and I would still pay $600k for it.
It sounds beautiful as it looks 👌😎
Yeah that’s a beautiful Ferrari and that steering wheel is Bellissima 👊🏻👊🏻
I wish i can give your video a million like the car is glorious ❤
Amazing thanks
Beautiful dino... ❤️
If I heard this engine without video, I 100% would’ve guessed it was a V12. Not only that, this engine sounds better than many V12’s, including the original BMW 850i, Jaguar XJS and any Mercedes SL600, SL65 AMG.
I heard the intro and without thinking appreciated that ferocious v12 sound. Then when he said "v6" I blinked for a second before snapping back to reality. SURELY if Ferrari could get a v6 to sound that good in the 60s, a modern company could do something to at least approach this.
Is there any small classic better than this? No. :) what a fantastic little beaut!
This car is for me a reference for the current z4Supra, which needs a scoop-delete styling option. Hopefully one day you will get to drive the Opel GT from the same era (~1970) as this Dino.
