    Well, folks.

    After many years of lurking on these threads, I am finally "pulling the trigger" on a beautiful 1984 Mondial Quattrovalvole Coupe.

    The Mondial was "the" childhood dream car for me, as I'm sure it was for many of you.

    The truth is, I could not be more proud to be sharing this journey with the broader FerrariChat community. I've "lurked" on these forums for many years. In COVID, this website kept me going during my darkest days.

    And now I get to fulfill a lifelong dream: calling myself a Ferrari Owner.

    P.S. Enzo was my Father's Hero. I wish he was here to see this moment. He would be so proud of me!

    -B.W.

    Thank you all for the warm welcome!

    There are still a few weeks to go before I receive my First Ferrari, but suffice it to say, I would be most pleased to provide photos upon delivery :)

    Congratulations. Question, 1984 Mondial quattrovalvole coupes are Euro spec only. Where are you located?

    By the way, I forgot to mention, my Mondial will be parked next to my Citroen 2CV and VW GTI Mk I.

    Look at all of these cars I own, and I don't even have a secondary education!

    It was my father who encouraged me to pursue my passion of building musical instruments.

    And that has become my work, and my whole life.

    It has got to be where I am today: successful, and even proud.

    So thanks again to all of you for accompanying me on this journey :D

    Hi all and welcome Bacchus!
    This is auite funny....
    I've bought a Mondial Qv for rebuild in april 22, and my other car is also a 2cv (1956)! Plus an opel gt 1900 I'm just finishing to restore.
    Is there like a special affinity between Citroën and Ferrari??? Maybe the owners are just a bit non-conformist...

    Ha! The fool considers himself a "Ferrari Owner"

    You are purchasing an old piece of junk that costs less than a Mercedes E-Class.

    Do yourself, and all of us, a favour. Stick to music, and stay away from cars.

    Now, I have go for a drive. Should I take my 599 GTO, my F12tdf, or my SF90 Spider. Tough choices!

    ;)

    Don’t take your inability to find enjoyment out on someone else. It’s petty and shows your the type who give owners a bad name. Your obviously compensating for something

    Those who have driven a CX in heavy rain and gusty winds at high speed on European cross country roads know what a car that was.

    For the record he's referring to cars on his Xbox. What I want to know is when is he permanently banned. Not his first temp ban for the same thing, search his name many his posts are exactly like this in all the forums.

    32 days ago or so in the 348 forum. He has that same schtick in many forums however. He seems to equate the car you want to buy with your income which means he has neither and understands nothing about these cars. I suspect during the bans ban he takes his 599 GTO, my F12tdf, or his SF90 out for a spin on the Xbox while his mom brings him pizza rolls no doubt.
