Spied: Ferrari Dino

They are stick to those two 8 and 12 cylinder engines because they are small company. They cant afford to invest making new 6 cylinder and nothing is certain that it would be better than Porsche in the end.

Even Alfa Romeo uses same V6 engine block as GM, its financial reality.

But I'm no Ferrari expert so of course anything is possible on the engine side.

ferrari are owned by FIAT and being one of the few profitable parts of FIAT they have an unlimited budget. but for it to stay this way they have to sell cars and win F1 races.

Ferrari has built V12s, V10s (F1 only), V8s and V6s (under the factory name Dino) in the past. no inline engines ever. and they never will unless if F1 demands it.

Offtopic I guess, but that reminded me. I've heard that original Lotus Elise was influenced by Dino (head designer had Dino at that moment), and now looking at photos they are similar on some ways! :) The front at least.

That's because this was by no means a shallow grave. He's probably a Moleperson.
