    Wow, just saw another Mondial in my town east of Dallas. A black 3.2 coupe. Rare sight! Anyone here own that car?

    I own a black 3.2 coupe, but I'm in Pennsylvania so I don't think it was me.

    But any 3.2 coupe is a rare sighting.

    Temple was buying a black 3.2 Coupe out of SC. I wonder if he finally picked it up and is headed back West. Which direction was the car headed? ;)

    Wasn’t me!! Though how I wish it was. That planned trip Mike looks like it will be made in December or January. Maybe Stephane? Lol

    Ah, too bad! At least it doesn't sound too far off. That should be a fun trip back across the continent at an interesting time of year. ;)

    Never seen a Mondial in the wild (car shows/parking doesn't count). That's awesome!

    Off-tangent... Ironically, I went to visit a couple of old friends in Rockwall/Heath, 2 years ago. Not Ferrari enthusiasts, though. Would have been cool if I had seen a Mondial (or two!!) while there, for sure!!

    There was a Physician here in town (Northern Illinois) who had a '88 Black Mondial 3.2 Coupe.

    Not a fan of black cars but my goodness, that car looked perfect! That car is why I long for a Mondial today.

    He leased it through Lake Forest Sportscars. Saw it once for sale at Continental AutoSports many years ago.

    AtsAaron has a black 3.2 and he’s in the Dallas area I believe (has SNJ5’s old car); must be him. I think he posted here a month or so ago

    Nice! Mystery solved. Good thinking Temple. The fastest Mondial in the country! ;)

    That’s cool. He is supposed to be bringing that blue Dino over time my shop to dyno.

    Wow! 670 horsepower?! :eek:

    That car is a beauty! Have been debating between coupe and cabriolet. I like the way the air intake kind of mirrors the rear window line. Great photo! :)
