About the Ferrari 246 GT Dino Green Anson 1:18
TL;DR: Anson's 1:18 diecast Ferrari Dino 246 GT reproduces the Pininfarina-designed V6 coupe in green, a car Ferrari originally badged as a separate Dino marque rather than under its own name. This entry-tier diecast offers accessible pricing for a design regarded as one of the most elegant road cars Ferrari ever built.
The Dino 246 GT carried a V6 rather than Ferrari's traditional V12, and Enzo Ferrari kept it off the main marque deliberately, selling it under the Dino name alone. Anson's diecast takes on that shape at a budget well below specialist Ferrari replica pricing.
Anson's Budget-Tier Diecast Approach
Anson built its reputation in the 1990s and 2000s on affordable diecast that let collectors own recognizable classic shapes without specialist pricing, and this 246 GT fits that positioning exactly. The body captures the Dino's long nose, low roofline, and side-mounted air intake, the details that make the shape instantly readable even at a glance. Green paint sits flat and consistent across the curves, without the deep clear-coat layering a premium resin house would apply, and interior detail stays basic, a simplified dashboard and molded seats rather than mapped textures. Panel gaps run wider than mid-tier or premium diecast, and the wheels favor a generic period style over an exact factory match. Collectors who later upgrade to a resin Dino from a specialist builder often keep this Anson piece anyway, since the two serve different roles: one for handling and everyday display, the other for careful, low-traffic shelf placement.
The Dino Name and Its Place in Ferrari's Road Car Story
Enzo Ferrari created the Dino marque partly to sell a V6-powered car without diluting the prestige his V12 road cars carried, and the 246 GT became the most successful expression of that strategy, styled by Pininfarina into a shape many enthusiasts still rank among Ferrari's finest regardless of engine layout. Ferrari eventually folded the Dino name back into its own lineup on later models, but the standalone Dino era remains a distinct chapter collectors often pursue specifically for its separateness from the badge-driven V12 cars. The 246 GT's naturally aspirated V6 also previewed the smaller-displacement engineering path Ferrari would revisit decades later in some of its modern V6 hybrid models. On a classic Ferrari shelf, this green example tells that side story well.
