Ferrari "Dino" to be unveiled at the Paris Motor Show

Ferrari confirmed that they will launch a new sports car in September at the Paris Motor Show. The future sports car is actually the long-rumored Dino, but it might not get this name, but possibly GT420 or GT470. Dino was the name applied to a smaller sportscar engineered by Ferrari in the 1960s, one named for a son of founder Enzo Ferrari.



The future model will be based on a shortened platform spun from the Maserati GranTurismo. Powered by the family V-8 also found in the Maserati, the Ferrari will sport a 4.7-liter version. The new Ferrari will be positioned between the F430 and the Maserati GT.
