Another tidbit that ads to the Dino legacy, according to Carol Shelby, who considered Dino a close friend, Dino cared far more about road going sports cars than his father, so it's absolutely fitting that 2 of the best driving Ferrari road cars of all time bear his name. To quote old man Shelby, "...I sometimes dream about a world where Dino lived longer, in that world, Ferrari road cars might very well have lived up to their legend."
@@AI-qd4vb Shelby may be just a factory runner, but he's well humble enough. The Cobra will always be Cobra and for what it is, I see Shelby and then-Ferrari as friends of its time. And also, his legacy never stuck with just his brand. The Ford Mustang you know today would have never existed without him, and the GT40/GT, and the Cobra's spiritual successor, Dodge Viper. Now tell me how funny it is to have that much of a legacy of his as just a factory runner.
@@AI-qd4vb Lol any and every car here touched became incredible. Don't forget he was the one who conceptualized the Dodge Viper (couldn't call it Cobra for obvious reasons but still gave it a snake name).
He’d be able to do more if he didn’t have to have an example of the car in question in the studio for shooting, then do the driving clip at the end…. id guess that’s the limiting factor
@@stanza77I don't want to see more car RUclipsrs just doing the talking in front of the mic like Aidan Millward. I want to see more of Jason/Hagerty and JayEmm On Cars, those are more realistic.
This is easily one of the best and most memorable car video “docs” I’ve ever seen. 1. History Lesson 2. Documented facts 3. Emotive content 4. Humor 5. Perspective from presentor and the subject being documented Even the last bit with the driver pov and sounds… TOP NOTCH!

I'm of the Opinion that Camissa is the Closest thing we'll see to another Clarkson, he's got the flair and the knowledge and lacks the majority of the problematic stuff. He's just a brilliant entertainer.
When did Top Gear do a bio on either the Dino or 308? I remember Hammonds yellow one on the Slough run, and Clarkson raced that Skoda against the GTO. Camissas’ docs are pretty original there mate!
@@guitarzzeroit was that cheap Supercar challenge where Hammond had a 308 GT4. Clarkson was the one that said that they named it Dino because it was slow. Kinda funny to the general public until you learn the actual history like this video did.
Great video. I have to say that I completely understand Enzo’s depth of grief and pain over the loss of his son Alfredino. My son died on Dec 26th 2020. That pain never ever goes away. It may subside a little but it NEVER goes away.
I remember the first time I ever saw a Dino, it was with my father. He explained to me that it wasn't "really" a Ferrari, though I most certainly could tell by looks alone that it was. I am flying out tonight for my fathers celebration of life and can't express how wonderful the timing of this Revelations is. Thank you Jason.
The 246 GT Dino is my 2nd favourite Ferrari of all time, after the 275 GTB/4. The story of how it came to be is just beautiful too, Enzo was such a great man on many levels. That quote about how his son left him a legacy made me pretty emotional.
Man, do you guys like to keep us desperate for this incredible content. I feel like a toddler on Christmas day whenever a new episode pops into my feed. As a father of a 22 year old boy, I can't even comprehend the insurmountable pain of such a crushing loss. While nothing can assuage the sorrow, the original Dino is just heart achingly beautiful and such a stunning tribute to a young man taken so soon. Hats off to Hagerty, Jason and the crew for these videos that should be kept in an archive for future generations.
As amazing as this episode was, your revelations about Enzo's emotions towards his son really hit home for me. I don't have a kid but makes my heart tremble for my father! I honestly appreciate it!
Agreed. So much better than one famous nonstop yakker who is so amped up with the sound of his own voice you never get to hear what the amazing car he's driving sounds like and experience its magic. Cammisa nails it

"It was the winter of 1918-1919, extremely rigid, I remember it with great sorrow. I was on the streets, clothes freezing solid on me. Walking through Parco del Valentino, after brushing away the snow with my hand, I let myself go on a bench. I was alone, my father and brother were no more. Despondency won me, and I cried" (Enzo Ferrari, on being rejected by FIAT) The name "Dino" meant everything to Ferrari. It was the legacy of his family, and in many ways, the way forward for the company he had poured his heart and soul into. With FIAT's backing, the company that had once rejected him, it meant that Scuderia Ferrari was safe and the work of his lifetime would go on. It was one last farewell to his son.
What a well told story. I used to walk by a parking garage in Boston's north end that held a beautiful red Dino. The video reminded me of early Petrolicus videos. Really nice.
18:23 There’s no better reward to watch a full length video than these. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up just by hearing and watching these machines. Thank you all for your insight and understanding of car guys.
@@manoharjishnu2009 A throaty little V6 with short gears and loud intake noises will do that, apparently. I got goosebumps every time I went back to rewatch the 246 at the end. That sounds absolutely incredible, but I need a break after that. Having goosebumps for so long doesn't feel healthy
I really love the 208/308 model, like its sister, the Lamborghini Urraco both from Bertone/Gandini. A departure from the mostly Pininfarina designed cars. The trust was won back by Leonardo Fioravanti at Pininfarina whom Enzo really trusted. The 512BB, 308/328, GTO, F40 came from him, as did the Dino and Daytona in earlier years.
I find it incredibly fitting that the most elegantly beautiful roadgoing Ferrari (even if it never got the badge) got it's heart and name from Enzo's child as much in his honor and memory as through his own accomplishments.
Finally, more audio of just driving the cars. No music, no dialogue, just pure automotive bliss. Should be much more footage of this, please. Alan DeCadenet in the Victory by Design series was the all-time legend for this. Brings tears to your eyes.
Love the videos! I love the fact that at the end of the video, he actually drives the cars WITHOUT music ruining the engine sound. Keep them coming Hagerty and Jason.
1:02 Jason's voice cracking because of the significance of what he's saying literally made me cry. Utmost respect for the work, passion, intelligence and honesty.
Smile coming from a Dino family from 206sp that won targa florio , 246gts and my current GT4 the I was brought home in from the hospital when I was born! Thanks Jason (and hyphen for bringing that car to you)
I kept thinking about this when Jason talked about it on the Carmudgeon show and oh boy did that quote by Enzo Ferrari hit hard. Thank you Jason for another amazing Revelations episode
I fell in love with the Dino after reading about it in the cannonball book and then googling it to be met with a picture of a dark blue one with a tobacco interior. The 308 has been growing on me.
Jason Cammisa has to be one of the most underrated journalist in my opinion. The way he can mess around and still delivery 100% facts without producing crummy content. Keep it up man! Been watching this guy since high-school lol makes me miss when motor-trend wasn’t trying to be so trendy. Always wanting more of this series lol👀
The music, the editing , the script , the whole production of these videos are a masterpiece !! Congrats to all the people involved . Cheers from Brazil.
What a great man Enzo was. He was difficult, they say, but he was what life made him. Nothing stop him making his name and brand immortal. Grazie, Commendatore.
At 16:51, It's something simple, but for me as a car fan it's an honor that my illustrations have appeared in a video of yours. I appreciate that you have put a mention, (although it has a typographical error, CBCarillustrations instead of the real DBCarillustrations, but it is understood that they wanted to do it, this really made my day a lot. Gettings from Chile 😊
Jason is the best auto journal in the business. The depth of automotive geekiness coupled with entertaining wit. I was hit by the “thunderbolt” at age 10, War Memorial Auditorium Car Show in Fort Lauderdale, 1976. I became a Dino fan first and foremost. I never owned one but did own a 308 GTSi and Mondial T Coupe. A 914-6 was the closest I ever got to it as far as a direct competitor. Guess there’s no surprise my daily is a 981S Cayman and my garage trophy is a GT4RS. For me, all automotive roads lead to the Dino underdog to its bigger brother recipe.
I've always loved the 308GT4. And the great thing about them being a bit unloved by "aficionados" is they haven't gone stupid expensive like some other cars have. At the time they were the best handling car Ferrari had ever built, as well as being the first flat-plane crank engine. Like Jason says, they drive fantastically well.
Holy smokes, congratulations on producing some of the greatest automotive content ever this side of Victory by Design!! Thanks for the no nonsense presentation!
However you feel about Enzo, his devotion to his son speaks volumes about his character as a man. As much as he loved racing, he loved his son even more.
Hagerty, more Cammisa videos please. His presentation style is fun, informative, quirky and he is simply one of the best automotive presenters on RUclips.
I really liked the Canadian hatchback cameo 😆 Loving the Easter eggs, the selection of beautiful historic cars, and the tailored soundtracks of each episode. Thanx Hagerty team ☺
In 1997, I spent every dime I had and even got a loan to purchase a 1980 Ferrari 308 GTSi. It was a very impractical decision as I should have got a property, which was a lot better for my future. However, I don't have regrets as I can one day tell my grandchildren that I used to own a cool Ferrari when I was in my 20s. Now, that is a great story to tell. No regrets.
6:56 Can't help but think that the Dino 206 GT is a spiritual predecessor to both Lotus Esprit S1 and Porsche 982 718 Cayman. Even though the Cayman and the Esprit only has an inline-4 engine, they all got 2.0L capacity with the engine mounted in the middle.
18:11 Eargasm - also great video as always, I look forward to these more than any other automotive youtube channel and I'm near enough watching all of them
To this day I still cringe when I re-watch that TG Cheap Italian Supercars bit and JC starts going on about how Hammond's car "isn't truly a Ferrari". First off, he's driving, more or less, a Citroen with a Maserati-badge in that film (gorgeous car, all the same), so he shouldn't be talking about badges. Secondly, it could say "Super Mario" on the badge of both the 308 GT4 and the 246 and they'd still be awesome cars. Plus: Hasn't the 246 been one of the most desirable vintage Ferraris, fetching ridiculous prices since ... forever? OTOH, I just checked current GT4 prices and those haven't *really* budged all that much since TG made that film. Even 3-liter examples in very good condition (judging from the pics and descriptions) can be had for 40k to 70k over here in Europe. It might sound a bit silly, but maybe that's precisely because of that TG-film where we were being told that the GT4 was "the wrong car". Oh, and lastly: Let's not forget which car in that film was in the best ... err.. least worst shape and did last the longest and that when it went out, it didn't suffer a disintegrating engine. I seem to remember that Hammond bought that car off the production company afterwards and restored and kept it. The Maserati OTOH went to a scrap-yard dealer - I do remember finding it for sale on their website back in the day and they did, BTW, confirm that it was an actual SS, not a regular Merak with an SS-badge.
It's almost as if real car enthusiasts don't take what Clarkson says as the absolute truth. Sadly, I don't think that was even the purpose of the original Top Gear. It's blindingly obvious that the viewers were expected to take everything said (by any of them!) with a pinch of salt. Sadly, not everyone did, and are taking what Clarkson said as the undeniable truth.
I worked for Autosport Magazine in the early 80’s, looking after classified ads. One of my regular clients had a 246 Dino for sale for £3995 and he just couldn’t sell it. I thought long and hard about it and it wasn’t feasible for a junior ad sales guy… 🤨
I remember an old Duke Ferrari documentary saying how much Enzo loved Dino ( Seemingly more then his other kids for some reason ) and how the name was a tribute. Always seemed weird that people would say it was because the cars were inferior but that never made sense because he adored Dino. This was cathartic thank you Jason and Hagerty.
The V6 sounds really good from the camera on the Trunk Lid, under which the engine resides..... The V8, like Jason said in the podcast, sounds like a 4-cyl but a really good 4-cyl, and to me it sounds like a Honda Sports Car 4-cyl without V-TEC and a screaming high redline. Incredible work on the story, Jason, respect your and your team's effort behind the scenes that you put into reading through a lot of articles, books magazines and presenting it in a humorous yet informational way to the public. All that said, for what ducking reason did you stop Know It All? We all loved it, cos we got to learn and laugh through each one of those short videos that we get to learn important stuff that we'd have never learnt otherwise... And the icing on that cake is the way you explained everything... Simple language, easy to understand, funny enough sometimes to remember for a whole lifetime. All I ask for is to bring it back, because, that's probably the only way I'd love to learn car stuff while laugh till i get a stomach ache. Appreciate your effort guys!
I freely admit I was one of the people that believed the "story" of the Dino. A few years ago I had some clients that own one and said it was part of their retirement plan. It was tucked away in the back of their garage. I remember thinking, yeah it's really pretty but it's not a real Ferrari. How wrong I was! Thank you so much for this video and the explanation that contains
I never knew Enzo's life was so fraught with pain and hardship..... What an inspiration, all this time I thought he was just some egotistical prodigy..... little did I know how much pain he had to go through, and the strength he had to fight back all that sadness and anger and despondency to create the most iconic car brand of all time. My respect has gone up 10000fold after this video for him and of course his son Dino. I have a similar condition to him so as someone who loves cars as much as that it hurts so much to see this video, but it also inspires me. Thanks for the awesome video.
I never realized how much Dino there is in the rear 3/4s of the early C3 Vettes with the concave rear window and buttresses, haunches, and split bumpers. ALSO - great history as always Jason!
Jasons other talent in telling these stories is that he has a naturally casual demeanor that makes the stories accessible. Its not just gear head technobable. It makes it accessible to a kid born 50 years after it happened, as well as the guy who remembers that event like a holy holiday!
The Dino demonstrates that the highest honor is not putting their name on a car, but putting their name one of the best, most popular and most practical road going Ferraris ever. Because putting your son's name on some highly exclusive, recalcitrant super car just ensures no one knows the name you honor.
I was about to fall asleep. But I decided to watch this video because it came up on my notifications tab. It's a pretty good video, but in the end, the sound of the equal length exhaust on the dino woke me up and made my heart pump. Now I'm changing the head gasket on my motorcycle because I can't sleep.
The 246 is, in my opinion, among the most beautiful cars ever made. The lines, the curves, the stance, the flair. It's magnificent. And the sound? Man alive.
Cammisa sei davvero bravissimo! This guy’s pieces have become such a guilty pleasure of mine. A total masterclass of motoring journalism. No sensationalism and other modern day social-media faff and BS to attract as many clicks as possible……he’s even managed to make the mechanical engineering and technical information behind cars sexy and easy to understand. What a gem! ……..and I can’t stop watching
My uncle had a 308GT4 in the early 80s. Took me to school and it one day. I’m still the king of the school now. If I could have any Ferrari new or old I would have a 308GT4. Send shivers down my spine every time I see one. Lovely car

I appreciate that you have put a mention, (although it has a typographical error, CBCarillustrations instead of the real DBCarillustrations, but it is understood that they wanted to do it, this really made my day a lot. Gettings from Chile 😊
The influence of the Dino 246 is all over the new 296 GTB. Beautiful cars.
Jason is the best auto journal in the business. The depth of automotive geekiness coupled with entertaining wit. I was hit by the “thunderbolt” at age 10, War Memorial Auditorium Car Show in Fort Lauderdale, 1976. I became a Dino fan first and foremost. I never owned one but did own a 308 GTSi and Mondial T Coupe. A 914-6 was the closest I ever got to it as far as a direct competitor. Guess there’s no surprise my daily is a 981S Cayman and my garage trophy is a GT4RS. For me, all automotive roads lead to the Dino underdog to its bigger brother recipe.
Jason driving the 246 swiftly vs absolutely caning the 308 because he owns it 😂
I've always loved the 308GT4. And the great thing about them being a bit unloved by "aficionados" is they haven't gone stupid expensive like some other cars have. At the time they were the best handling car Ferrari had ever built, as well as being the first flat-plane crank engine. Like Jason says, they drive fantastically well.
Yet another fantastic Jason Cammisa video. The guy is a future legend.
Holy smokes, congratulations on producing some of the greatest automotive content ever this side of Victory by Design!! Thanks for the no nonsense presentation!
However you feel about Enzo, his devotion to his son speaks volumes about his character as a man. As much as he loved racing, he loved his son even more.
I think Enzo was misunderstood person
Hagerty, more Cammisa videos please. His presentation style is fun, informative, quirky and he is simply one of the best automotive presenters on RUclips.
I really liked the Canadian hatchback cameo 😆 Loving the Easter eggs, the selection of beautiful historic cars, and the tailored soundtracks of each episode. Thanx Hagerty team ☺
I’ve never enjoyed any Ferrari presentation more than this, Jason. Letting the driving music speak last is brilliant.
In 1997, I spent every dime I had and even got a loan to purchase a 1980 Ferrari 308 GTSi. It was a very impractical decision as I should have got a property, which was a lot better for my future. However, I don't have regrets as I can one day tell my grandchildren that I used to own a cool Ferrari when I was in my 20s. Now, that is a great story to tell. No regrets.
I don't know what other way to say it, but Jason truly is the GOAT in his field.
The Dino 206/246 is a glorious car. It looks incredible and that V6 is a great engine. All i need now is money. Lots and lots of money.
6:56 Can't help but think that the Dino 206 GT is a spiritual predecessor to both Lotus Esprit S1 and Porsche 982 718 Cayman. Even though the Cayman and the Esprit only has an inline-4 engine, they all got 2.0L capacity with the engine mounted in the middle.
Always a tremendous pleasure seeing Jason
18:11 Eargasm - also great video as always, I look forward to these more than any other automotive youtube channel and I'm near enough watching all of them
To this day I still cringe when I re-watch that TG Cheap Italian Supercars bit and JC starts going on about how Hammond's car "isn't truly a Ferrari". First off, he's driving, more or less, a Citroen with a Maserati-badge in that film (gorgeous car, all the same), so he shouldn't be talking about badges. Secondly, it could say "Super Mario" on the badge of both the 308 GT4 and the 246 and they'd still be awesome cars. Plus: Hasn't the 246 been one of the most desirable vintage Ferraris, fetching ridiculous prices since ... forever?
OTOH, I just checked current GT4 prices and those haven't *really* budged all that much since TG made that film. Even 3-liter examples in very good condition (judging from the pics and descriptions) can be had for 40k to 70k over here in Europe. It might sound a bit silly, but maybe that's precisely because of that TG-film where we were being told that the GT4 was "the wrong car".
Oh, and lastly: Let's not forget which car in that film was in the best ... err.. least worst shape and did last the longest and that when it went out, it didn't suffer a disintegrating engine. I seem to remember that Hammond bought that car off the production company afterwards and restored and kept it. The Maserati OTOH went to a scrap-yard dealer - I do remember finding it for sale on their website back in the day and they did, BTW, confirm that it was an actual SS, not a regular Merak with an SS-badge.
It's almost as if real car enthusiasts don't take what Clarkson says as the absolute truth. Sadly, I don't think that was even the purpose of the original Top Gear. It's blindingly obvious that the viewers were expected to take everything said (by any of them!) with a pinch of salt. Sadly, not everyone did, and are taking what Clarkson said as the undeniable truth.
I cant believe i wasnt subscribed to this monumental channel
Not gonna lie, that Enzo quote about legacy made me tear up a bit🥺.
These videos get better and better. Fantastic.
I worked for Autosport Magazine in the early 80’s, looking after classified ads. One of my regular clients had a 246 Dino for sale for £3995 and he just couldn’t sell it.
I thought long and hard about it and it wasn’t feasible for a junior ad sales guy… 🤨
If only you’d known 😢
I remember an old Duke Ferrari documentary saying how much Enzo loved Dino ( Seemingly more then his other kids for some reason ) and how the name was a tribute. Always seemed weird that people would say it was because the cars were inferior but that never made sense because he adored Dino. This was cathartic thank you Jason and Hagerty.
Great video! Loved the story, really makes me wish I’d purchased a Dino 10 years ago when they were relatively affordable
The V6 sounds really good from the camera on the Trunk Lid, under which the engine resides.....
The V8, like Jason said in the podcast, sounds like a 4-cyl but a really good 4-cyl, and to me it sounds like a Honda Sports Car 4-cyl without V-TEC and a screaming high redline.
Incredible work on the story, Jason, respect your and your team's effort behind the scenes that you put into reading through a lot of articles, books magazines and presenting it in a humorous yet informational way to the public.
All that said, for what ducking reason did you stop Know It All? We all loved it, cos we got to learn and laugh through each one of those short videos that we get to learn important stuff that we'd have never learnt otherwise... And the icing on that cake is the way you explained everything... Simple language, easy to understand, funny enough sometimes to remember for a whole lifetime. All I ask for is to bring it back, because, that's probably the only way I'd love to learn car stuff while laugh till i get a stomach ache.
Appreciate your effort guys!
what's the music at 15:45 ? anybody knows?
Wow! This is automotive journalism at its best!
I learned a lot from this video!
This man Camissa, I'm telling you, he's a car enthusiast treasure. The production and storytelling is extremely well done.
Cammisa w/ Pobst combo are the only Auto Journalists that have magic that comes close to Clarkson, Hammond, and May.
The last 2 minutes gave me chills, especially that 308, my God I love a good sounding engine.
Carmudgeon listeners knew this was coming... And the next one
I am watering at my jowls waiting for the next episode featuring the Lotus Elan and Mazda Miata
This is some of the best automotive content available. Fantastic writing and information. Thank you for all the effort. It’s really appreciated.
never this early lol
Dino is one of the most beautiful cars i have ever seen. If i could own a car Ferrari made...it would be the original Dino.
I freely admit I was one of the people that believed the "story" of the Dino.
A few years ago I had some clients that own one and said it was part of their retirement plan. It was tucked away in the back of their garage. I remember thinking, yeah it's really pretty but it's not a real Ferrari.
How wrong I was!
Thank you so much for this video and the explanation that contains
I never knew Enzo's life was so fraught with pain and hardship..... What an inspiration, all this time I thought he was just some egotistical prodigy..... little did I know how much pain he had to go through, and the strength he had to fight back all that sadness and anger and despondency to create the most iconic car brand of all time. My respect has gone up 10000fold after this video for him and of course his son Dino. I have a similar condition to him so as someone who loves cars as much as that it hurts so much to see this video, but it also inspires me. Thanks for the awesome video.
best content and presenter on the internet !! Go JAson!!
Another brilliant Revelations episode. Could listen to Jason all day. This has become my favourite car series on RUclips by far
It's taken decades but I've come around. The 308 GT4 has turned into one of my absolute all time favorites.
Great storytelling and editing. Hagerty, if you’re listening, give this team a raise! Every episode is better than the previous.
Great video. The Dino 246 has been a one of my dream cars since in 1971 TV series The Persuaders Danny Wilde (Tony Curtis) drives it.
No one does pov driving better than Cammisa,the best part for most videos for me.
FIrst one that made me cry. I love my sons and can't imagine life without them. Loved this one. :)
The 308 gt4 is a masterpiece. One day I will get one.
I want it in an understated color, like dark blue or brown.
I never realized how much Dino there is in the rear 3/4s of the early C3 Vettes with the concave rear window and buttresses, haunches, and split bumpers. ALSO - great history as always Jason!
Jasons other talent in telling these stories is that he has a naturally casual demeanor that makes the stories accessible. Its not just gear head technobable. It makes it accessible to a kid born 50 years after it happened, as well as the guy who remembers that event like a holy holiday!
The Dino demonstrates that the highest honor is not putting their name on a car, but putting their name one of the best, most popular and most practical road going Ferraris ever.
Because putting your son's name on some highly exclusive, recalcitrant super car just ensures no one knows the name you honor.
I adore those ending drives. Just a sample of the pure driving experience.
What a brilliant video. And what two beautiful cars. And thank you for including that end section of a rorty V6 and thunderous V8.
I think I comment this on almost every one of these videos I watch, but I have to say, the production quality is insanely good! Love these videos.
I was about to fall asleep. But I decided to watch this video because it came up on my notifications tab. It's a pretty good video, but in the end, the sound of the equal length exhaust on the dino woke me up and made my heart pump. Now I'm changing the head gasket on my motorcycle because I can't sleep.
The 246 is, in my opinion, among the most beautiful cars ever made.
The lines, the curves, the stance, the flair. It's magnificent. And the sound? Man alive.
Cammisa sei davvero bravissimo! This guy’s pieces have become such a guilty pleasure of mine. A total masterclass of motoring journalism. No sensationalism and other modern day social-media faff and BS to attract as many clicks as possible……he’s even managed to make the mechanical engineering and technical information behind cars sexy and easy to understand. What a gem! ……..and I can’t stop watching
My uncle had a 308GT4 in the early 80s. Took me to school and it one day. I’m still the king of the school now. If I could have any Ferrari new or old I would have a 308GT4. Send shivers down my spine every time I see one. Lovely car
