it came with a fire extinguisher...

It’s designed by Bertone.

3rd tip: when Porsche choose to put the rpm counter in front of the driver as it is the most important for them when you drive a Porsche, they decided to put the oil pressure gauge in front of the driver as it’s obviously the most important to them.

What is my new car? :)

Sm70 found the answer already...

it’s a 1967 Dino! I’ll go more in depth later on with a full review of the car. It’s really, really nice to drive! Love it!

3rd tip reminded me of Top Gear, the oil gauge right in front.

It's some type of Lancia...aargh on the tip of my tongue.

That is one sexy Italian. It looks like it’s just a good scrubbing away from being perfect, how are the mechanics and interior?

I was actually going to guess Fiat 130 Coupe, but then I realized it lacked a fender vent, so I went with the next closest thing.

He did. But your picture was more noticeable.

Thank Wikipedia for that

It’s been very very good to me... I just drove 500 miles in it doing 85mph average at 5000rpm+ while it was 30 degrees celcius all day long and temperatures have been real stable, no overheating, nothing.

Interior is nice, but finding the right button to press is a mess... ergonomics are not something they knew about lol

Very cool! I was actually going to guess Fiat 130 coupe, but realized it had no fender vent. I like this dino better though.

Is that the same kind of car the Italian mafia leader drives in the original Italian Job?

Yes it is :)

Same color too.

This afternoon made me think of it as I was driving the Dino while my wife was following me in my Mini.

I’ll write about it later on too.
