This Ferrari Dino 208 GT4 Is Beloved By Autodromo's Bradley Price

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The Ferrari Dino 208 GT4 is a unique car. Overshadowed by its bigger brother, the 308 GT4, the 208 was originally created to skirt under the Italian tax levied on engines above two liters. What the 208 GT4 lacks in displacement it makes up for in sound and style. For Bradley Price, designer and owner of Autodromo, the opportunity to acquire a practical "super car" of the '70s with its famous wedge styling was too hard to ignore. After a year of ownership, Bradley can consistently be found escaping the city and revving the sweet-sounding V8 along the roads and hills of New York.

    I owned a dino 308gt4 for 25 years......fully rebuilt every part of it and thoroughly enjoyed doing it. They are a joy to drive, a car so advanced for its time, and one that still has a magic about it that is soooo lacking in today's cars that do everything for you. It brings you back to real driving.

    Such a beautiful presentation. I was unaware of the 208 GT4 and its 2 L engine. This video and this owner remind me of myself and how I view special cars like this with heart and soul. I am not a guy who has to have the most powerful car or the newest. This car and everything he says about it and why he is so happy with it whether others are impressed or not shows he is a true car aficionado. The only one who needs to love one's car is oneself. This guy gets it.

    Brad is a great guy. I got in touch with him a couple of years ago before buying my 208 GTB (1980) and offered me great advice. My decision was mostly based on his feedback and now I am incredibly happy with my car, because what you need to understand is that inside these pieces of art pure acceleration and speed play only a minor part of the overall experience. Rather I can say that the 2.0L V8 sound is a lot more pleasant than the 308 3.0L’s. Certainly I’d love to have a 308 too, but the 208 in my experience is not inferior, it’s just different, with her own magnificent personality.

    the small displacement and large number of cylinders enables it to rev more than the 3.0lt engine version that is why he says that the engine has a sweeter note that the 3.0lt engine. So if your used to american v8s and there sound it is because of there larger displacement they make a low tone burble sound.

    Jason, if you ever get the chance to spend an hour or two... or as many as possible, behind the wheel of either of these very special understated cars, you won't give a hoot what anyone else thinks about them. I've never seen a 208 GT4 personally but I've spent many hours in a 308 Dino GTB4. I just couldn't care less what someone else thinks about it. A mid-week drive up CA Highway 1 from San Francisco to Eureka (when there's minimal traffic!) will convince you that you're driving one of the best handling, most unassuming sports cars you could ever find. They're not outrageously fast but if the road is reasonably crooked, you will give the "hot rod crowd" fits and I've found that to be most entertaining!! I've had people stop after blasting away on a straight section and wave me over to ask, "What the hell is that??!" The difference has always been that they may have the brute horsepower to pull away on a straight, but I rarely touch the brakes. I'd always catch them in the corners. That is fun! 😇😁
