Английская Википедия:Dino 206 GT and 246 GT
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox automobile
The Dino 206 GT, 246 GT and 246 GTS are V6 mid-engined sports cars produced by Ferrari and sold under the Dino marque between 1967 and 1974.
The Dino 246 was the first automobile manufactured by Ferrari in high numbers. It is lauded by many for its intrinsic driving qualities and groundbreaking design. In 2004, Sports Car International placed the car at number six on its list of Top Sports Cars of the 1970s. Motor Trend Classic placed the 206/246 at number seven in their list of the 10 "Greatest Ferraris of all time".
Dino 206 GT
The production Dino 206 GT was designed by Aldo Brovarone[2] and Leonardo Fioravanti at Pininfarina[3] and built by Scaglietti.[4] It had the soft edges and curving lines typical of earlier Italian cars, unlike its angular successor, the 308 GT4.
The 206 GT used a transverse-mounted 2.0 litre all-aluminium, 65-degree V6 engine with dual overhead camshafts and a 9:1 compression ratio, making Шаблон:Cvt at the 8,000 rpm redline. Torque was Шаблон:Cvt at 6,500 rpm. The crankshaft featured four main bearings. Induction was via three Weber 40 DCN/4 2-barrel carburetors. The 206 GT was the first car sold by Ferrari which used an electronic ignition, a Dinoplex C capacitive discharge ignition system that was developed by Magneti Marelli for the high revving Dino V6 engine.[5] It was also the first Ferrari product to have a direct rack-and-pinion steering.[4]
The 206 GT frame featured a light-weight, aluminium body, full independent suspension, and all round disc brakes. It had a Шаблон:Convert wheelbase and a top speed of Шаблон:Cvt.
152 were built in total between 1967 and 1969, in left hand drive only.[4]
The same Шаблон:Cvt engine was used in the Fiat Dino Coupe and Spider, produced during the same period. The conversion of the Dino 206 SP/S twin-cam racing engine for road-going use in the Dino (and the two Fiat models) was entrusted by Fiat to Aurelio Lampredi, to whom Ferrari owed so many great engines. Lampredi, interviewed in the early 1980s (he died in 1989 at the age of 71), noted that, "Things didn't work out exactly as Ferrari had foreseen." Шаблон:Citation needed span
Fiat quoted Шаблон:Cvt DIN for the Fiat Dino and Coupé, and in 1967 Ferrari - presenting the first prototype of the Dino 206 GT - claimed Шаблон:Cvt. This, however, was not the case. Both engines were made by Fiat workers in Turin on the same production line, without any discrimination as to their destination, and all were identical. Шаблон:Citation needed span
Later Fiat Dinos also used the 2.4L engine, although significantly fewer were produced with this engine.
Dino 246 GT and GTS
Calls for more power were answered with the Шаблон:Cvt Dino 65° V6 engine,[6] DOHC, 2 valves per cylinder, 9.0:1 compression ratio, iron block with alloy heads. It produced Шаблон:Cvt at 7,600 rpm and Шаблон:Cvt at 5,500 rpm of torque, and was available as a fixed-top GT coupé or, after 1971, an open Spyder GTS. A detuned American version had an exhaust air pump, and timing changes which resulted in Шаблон:Cvt. The GT had 3X2-barrel 40 DCNF/6 or 40 DCNF/7 Weber carburetors. For the 246 a new version of the Dinoplex ignition was deployed, the more compact Magneti Marelli AEC103A system.[5]
The 246 Dino GT weighed Шаблон:Cvt. The 246 Dino GTS weighed Шаблон:Cvt. The body was now mostly made of steel to save cost. The 246 Dino had a Шаблон:Convert longer wheelbase than the 206, at Шаблон:Convert. The height of the 246 was the same as the 206 at Шаблон:Convert. The new car had a revised interior. Other differences were 2 rows of 7 vents on the slightly longer engine lid of the 246 instead of 6 and a fuel cap flap cover instead of the exposed one of the 206.
Dino 246 production numbered 2,295 GT coupés and 1,274 GTS spyders, the latter being built after the Series III revision from 1972 to 1974 only, for a total production run of 3,569 cars. Three series of the Dino were built, with differences in wheels, windshield wiper coverage, and engine ventilation. The Series I cars (also known as L series), 357 of which were built until the summer of 1970, used the same center-bolt wheels and "clapping hands" windscreen wipers as did the 206. Series II cars (M series, built until July 1971 in 507 examples) received five-bolt Cromodora alloys and parallel moving wipers. The Series III cars (E series) had minor differences in gearing and fuel supply, and were built at a much higher rate as sales in the United States commenced with this version. 1,431 Series III GT coupés and 1,274 GTS removable top cars were built.[7]
The 246 had a claimed top speed of Шаблон:Cvt, although in July 1971 a road test by Britain's Motor magazine reported a top speed of Шаблон:Cvt, which compared favourably with the Шаблон:Cvt achieved by a recently tested (though by now replaced) Porsche 911S.[6] With a Шаблон:Cvt acceleration time of 5.5 seconds the Dino narrowly outperformed the Porsche again, although the Porsche was narrowly the winner on fuel economy.[6] The manufacturer's recommended UK retail price of £5,485 was higher than the £5,211 asked for the Porsche. For comparison, the much larger, four-passenger Citroën SM high-performance luxury coupe sold for £4,700.[6]
A Dino 246 GTS won the Cannonball Baker Sea-to-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash in 1975.
In one 1978 incident, a Dino 246 GTS was discovered buried in a yard by some Los Angeles children. The car was later found to be the subject of an elaborate insurance fraud perpetrated by the owner.
The Dino's 2.4 L V6 was also used in the Fiat Dino 2400 and the Lancia Stratos rally car.
There were some minor differences in trim for various markets, the most obvious being marker lights on US market Dinos. Group 4-style flared wheelarches were optional, as were seats from the 365 GTB/4 Daytona, the pair often ordered in conjunction with wide, sand-cast Campagnolo alloy wheels.[7]
