About the Ferrari Dino 246 GT Red Anson 1:18

TL;DR: Anson's 1:18 diecast reproduces the Ferrari Dino 246 GT in red, the Pininfarina-styled mid-engine coupe Ferrari deliberately sold without its own prancing horse badge. Diecast construction carries the car's balanced, curved proportions, capturing one of the most quietly influential shapes in Maranello's history.

Ferrari built the Dino specifically to not be a Ferrari, at least on paper, and the 246 GT's understated badging never stopped it becoming one of the marque's most admired shapes anyway.

Diecast Elegance on a Balanced Mid-Engine Shape

Pininfarina's design for the Dino relies on flowing, unbroken surfacing rather than aggressive vents or sharp creases, and diecast tooling needs genuine confidence in those curves, particularly around the distinctive rear flying buttresses, to avoid flattening the car's most recognisable feature. Red paint suits the Dino's rounded flanks well, showing off the surfacing through light and shadow rather than relying on trim lines for visual interest. Anson's diecast work here focuses on capturing that essential shape and proportion accessibly rather than chasing premium resin-level surface precision, a fair trade for a subject whose real-world value has climbed significantly among Ferrari collectors in recent years. The car's compact mid-engine cabin and low beltline remain the details worth checking closely for accurate proportion.

A Sub-Brand Built to Democratise the Ferrari Name

Ferrari created the Dino sub-brand specifically to sell a smaller, more attainable V6-powered sports car without diluting the prancing horse badge's exclusivity, a marketing decision that has become one of the more interesting footnotes in the marque's history.

A Quietly Significant Piece for a Ferrari Shelf

Placed among more overtly badged Ferraris, this Dino tells a genuinely different story about how Maranello once approached accessibility within its own range.
