I agree with Peter...Ive seen a few Valeo T's and Ive heard that the clutch system is very unreliable and causes lots of problems. Get a 5 speed. |

Got a 3.2 coupe here and it's good! Sounds good and handles well. Haven't tried the T before, but I would think the real 5-speed manual is the way to go and not the valeo clutch one in T. |

Get the T. I've had a chance to drive it and if you drive it back to back with the others you'll definitely want to go with it.
Fun car. Very understated, yet still has some good clean Ferrari lines. Personally I love the way the coupe looks!

Man That car looks great. I have yet to ride in a Mondial but hopefully I will soon. Ive heard great things about them (especially the 3.2 and T models). |

Not gobs of power, but they handle nicely and sound great. |

Rob has posted Cavallino's market prices here: http://www.ferrarichat.com/discus/models.htm
The car in the picture is a Mondial QV Cabriolet. For new models, also check "Mondial 3.2 Cabriolet" and "Mondial t Cabriolet." |

Mondial and 400 series and also 308gt4. I believe 400 series was the only 4 seater produced in both the 70's and 80's. |

was produced in the 70-80's that was a 4 seater and midengine? I would like to know more about this model, pros and cons. Seems as though it would be a nice family cruiser for my wife and 18 month old daughter. Advice please. Any pics available?
TIA
