The white shows the difference better between the qv and the t; So here we have side by side of a qv, 3.2 and a t to show the bumper differnces as well. | ||

Hello Omar, Sorry I can�t post pictures from the newer Mondial, Mondials build later than 1988 have got smaller airintakes at the side.(looks a bit quadratic). But you could take a look in the Archive here and see the pictures from some newer Mondials. It�s not so easy to recognize cause most got a dark paint. Regards Manfred | ||

Beautiful car Manfred. That's a great color. I never understood the comments about the intakes on the T either. The "Original Ferrari V8" book is almost completely absent of subjective comments, but it berates the pre-T intake design at least 3 or 4 times within the 20ish pages of the Mondial section. The Mondial is a long car and the larger intakes look much better in my opinion. I selected the 3.2 over the T for other reasons (simplicity), but I definitely prefer the older intake design. | ||

Manfred I like the curved intakes too, funny when the T came out with the straight ones, many in the press thought it was a needed improvement - what do they know  | ||

Hi J Michael, The Colour is called "Blu Sebring met" from a company "Glasurit" , The Colourcode is 503, This colour was used from 1981 till 1996 , I don�t know if it�s actually available. Last 10 years I only saw one Mondial convertible in the same colour. It�s really rare. Regards Manfred | ||

Hello Tom , I was just looking for your car, it�s very pretty, especially the older types(like mine) because the better designed side airintikakes. I don�t like the newer model. Regards Manfred | ||

Manfred, Do you know the actual name for that blue? It's an excellent color for a Mondial. I'd never seen one in blue. | ||

the blue looks great - its a shame they make you put that front plate on her, I think the front shot is one of the most flattering on a mondial | ||
