    We had to park it in a mini storage until we find a mover to take it to Joplin, Mo. In the mean time we are continuing with our vacation across America.

    First of all, congratulations and welcome!

    At first I thought the word investment was out of place, but when I think about all of the various wonderful dividends my Mondial has given me, whether it being ice cream runs with the wife and kids, or discovering the F-chat crowd, or becoming friends and hanging with my local and regional C&C buddies, or participating in drives, or participating in Concours Ferrari events, or going on a race track, or an actual $2,000 check being in a major Hollywood movie, or going on a car adventure twice in South Florida, or organizing Mondipalooza and meeting so many wonderful Mondial owners and having possibly the best four day car adventure of my life, it has been an investment. And a really good one at that. Even my purchase of my investment grade Countach wouldn't have happened if I didn't own my Mondial and was part of this classic Italian sports car loving community. I love your car and wish you nothing but the same smiles with the miles that I have been blessed to have given with mine. It is an investment in your own personal happiness and fond memories, an investment that is priceless. Bella!

    Well stated Jay !!! The Mondial will only get better with age, just like so many other Ferrari's.

    True story, I was put back a bit when I drove my car to the local C&C, an older retirement age gentleman came up to me and ask if this was my car as he has been starring and admiring the outside, inside, engine, angles for about 10 minutes. I said yes, its my 88 3.2 Mondial, he smiled and said, "you are a very lucky young man" and walked off! That was the best compliment I've ever had.

    Enjoy your car and hope to see more of your posts on this forum.
