Both the Ferrari Dino (well, actually, it was aptly called Dino as it was envisioned as a sub-brand for Ferrari's lesser models) and the original Mazda MX-5 or Miata are special cars in their own unique way that have secured a place in automotive history.
So, a car that combines the two should be pretty awesome ride ticking plenty of boxes, right? Well, let's just say that it all depends on your definition of "awesome".
Let's see what the current owner of this Ferrari Dino GT replica built around a 1993 Mazda MX-5 has to say about it:
"Unbelievable build, Must See! Turns heads pictures taken, Horns Honk, thumbs go up what an attention getter it is, You will feel like you hit the Lotto when driving this car!!! You will Get The Supercar looks and Reliability of a Mazda and Great Gas mileage of almost a hybrid..."
Still not convinced? The Diniata is said to have only "88k original certified miles (although the working speedometer shows 39K)". It might be a Mazda in heart, but the eBay asking price has a faint Ferrari scent to it at $29,000 (€21,400).
We're just throwing this out there if you're considering it - while it is true that original Dino's retail for ten times that at around $300,000, you could do yourself a favor and go get a brand new 2014 Nissan 370Z for a few hundred dollars more at $29,900 MSRP.
