Fina Sport was a niche automobile brand established around 1953 by Perry B. Fina, an import car dealer based in New York City. The brand focused on producing sports-touring cars that combined luxury with performance, catering to a select clientele.

The vehicles were built on a custom chassis derived from Ford components and featured a powerful Cadillac V8 engine, which produced 210 horsepower. The bodywork was styled by the renowned Italian coachbuilder Vignale, giving the cars an aesthetic reminiscent of contemporary Vignale-bodied Ferraris. With a wheelbase of 115 inches (2919 mm), the Fina Sport cars were relatively large, accommodating three passengers in the front and two in the rear.

In 1952, the price of a Fina Sport car was set at $9,800, reflecting its bespoke nature and the high level of customization available to customers. Each vehicle was tailored to individual specifications, resulting in a variety of unique models, including at least one variant equipped with a Chrysler V8 engine. Although only a limited number of units were produced, Fina Sport represented a distinctive chapter in the history of American automotive design during the mid-20th century.
