eBay Listing: 1967 Fiat Dino Spider 2.0
Passion, it is something a Ferrari has in spades, but does that same amount of passion go into Ferrari’s lesser models like the non-V12 cars? We’d argue yes, and most definitely that applies in the case of the Fiat Dino Spider.
The Fiat Dino Spider was and is for all intents and purposes a Ferrari under a Fiat badge. The Dino nameplate was applied to a few different cars as a name for the V6 or non-V12 Ferrari models. Unfortunately they haven’t always commanded the respect or prices that they truly deserve. We’d be the first to admit the rounded off lines of the Spider penned by Pininfarina suit the car rather well. It almost has a Coke bottle styling sense that, in our opinion, is the challenger of many a Ferrari of its day.
Products of Italy, especially sports cars, often have a certain element that the equivalent cars of other countries have yet to replicate. This factor is so inexplicable, it is almost sewn into the very fabric of what Italian vehicles represent. At their heart is passion, by the designers, by the engineers, the owners, and the racers — possibly even the country itself. Who can deny the passionate loyalty when it comes to offerings from Ducati, Lamborghini, and of course Ferrari. And in the case of this Dino Spider it fits into that carefree lifestyle of super sports cars that Italy is renowned for producing.
This specific 1967 Fiat Dino Spider is finished in dark green paint with a tan leather interior. According to its listing, Fiat produced only 1,133 of the 2.0 Dino Spiders and this one’s engine was completely rebuilt less than 1,000 miles ago. That fact, in and of itself, should give future owners some peace of mind as to the mechanicals of this little convertible. Of the two Fiat Dino Spiders being offered on eBay this week, we were drawn to this example due to its wonderful pictorial representation, its rather unique color combination, and its clean appearance and styling.
A rapidly appreciating classic, this gem is ready for a new owner who is as passionate about Italian cars as the country that produces them. Bid now to get the keys to this Ferrari by any other name, the 1967 Fiat Dino Spider.
