    I'm looking for a Mondial T to go with my QV. The "Buy it now" price on this car really scares me as being too low. Anyone know anything about this car? Thanks in advance!

    I've seen this car before myself. When I first posted this inquiry it had a 20K Buy it now price. That has disappeared. Something just doesn't feel right. Plus "0" feedback.

    It's in Greenville, SC. We've looked at it. Steer clear of it.

    probably cost you about 25 k to make it right. Engine bay looks like it has never been touched.

    If it looks like a untouched. It's a mess. It will cost as much as the sale price to fix its issues. An un touched motor not good at all. That means it has not been maintained properly. If it looks wore out then it has been neglected the problems can be up there in big buck$ land. Read my thread look at my engine it looks that way because someone just didn't care or couldn't afford to own it. There are no such thing as a cheap Ferrari. Live that it is true for sure. just be prepared it won't be pretty. Pay for a PPI it's worth it.

    I wonder always why one bids on Ebay without seeing or hearing a car. Are you still mandatory to buy when you win? Or do you have a chance to actually look at a car after giving a winning bid?

    I'm not sure if someone would be unhappy. I guess it is for a reason why it is up for a bargain. At least I think it is a cheap price for a T. I am curious why one needs to be suspicious for such a price? You know what you would get I guess unless you are totally unfamiliar with Ferraris or cars in general. Personally I would never buy it from Ebay but just look, pay and collect after a check if it is not stolen. For this price I guess you know there might be issues and if you do not mind you will not be unhappy, but that is only my humble opinion.

    It does have new fuel filters :D btw I really love the look of a black T. not very fond of the interior color of this one though, which looks the opposite from the engine bay.

    Looks can deceive.

    lol! and I did do internet dating ;) So once upon a time the story begins with someone popping up in ICQ from another country in Europe and 12 years later we are still together under one roof. It's like a box of chocolates.. You will never know what you will get :D

    For cars I think it is not something I will ever do I guess. I think I would like to see my internet date first like I did with Lady Grey before.

    Yeah, I did internet dating back in its early days and it was wildly entertaining (in afterthought). Lots of "half-blind" dates too (they had my photo but I didn't have theirs).
