Mondials For Sale

At least in today's market, for $75k it damn well better have a service!!!

Funny how the cab is priced higher??? Only 40 U.S. t coupes. And the roofs don't leak!

What a car, what a history……

Looks like mondial prices are rising…

 

Considering that 63 250 GTO just sold at $70 million, this should be quite interesting!!

The t coupe is “high mileage” (sic), 40 k vs 20 k, that’s why it’s higher priced Jerry

 

You have to laugh. Only in the Ferrari world is a 30 year old car with 40k miles considered "higher" mileage!

Exactly!! You do have to laugh!! Even with 40k that’s a little over 1k a year- it’s still pretty much brand new!! Lol

 

That's the Admiral's car. He's a fairly active poster here. look for "Admiral Goodwrench"

Mondials are one of the greatest Ferrari secrets of all time. The car gets a lot of "negative" coverage, but I have to believe these are people that have a). Never Driven one and B). Do not have children that require the back seat!

The Mondial T (both coupe and Convertible) are outstanding cars, and yes, the prices sure are rising! Maybe that is because they only made approx 800 T Coupes worldwide and only 43 of those came to the states. Apparently, they also only made about 1080 Mondial T Cabs, with fewer than 400 coming to the states. Looks like supply and demand might be the cause of the increased value. Might also simply be the lack of sub $100k Ferrari models still on the market??

 

I just can not imagine the separation of the Mondial 500 and the Admiral.
For me they are one and undividable.

Have any of you seen Mondials come up for sale that need an engine rebuild? What kind of discount could be expected for a car like that?

From what I gather they seem like robust cars, so maybe that's not so common. Thanks! (First post)

 

I would think a $20k discount should be in order in comparing a similar car with similar mileage.

 

Typically, said car will suffer from other issues too. The devil is in the details. Without driving it too, your at a loss to establish what other needs it may have.

 

I agree with this as well...And as the OP mentioned, these are generally robust cars, meaning if they need an engine rebuild, they were likely neglected and need additional attention.

 

I wouldn’t think a “split s” and an a-6 would go together. It would certainly be a slow one.

 

Nice shot of the a-6 though.

 

Hi all. Wanted to share our points on a few comments made...

Not sure how this happened? Are we referring to the black Mondial T Coupe that was marked sale pending at one point?

Our inventory is automatically posted to our site each time we stock a vehicle into our dealer management system. There are times we take them down after the fact, if we know it may be a few weeks before the car is ready to be advertised, which will produce a "Sold" banner automatically as well. I'm wondering if perhaps this may have been the case on the Coupe, provided we're referencing that car?

If we were just buying cars, taking nice photos, throwing them up online, and asking for top dollar, I would agree that this is a nonsensical approach. This, however, is not our approach.

We do invest a great deal of resources to ensure each car is "turn key" by the time it gets delivered. For example, we just sold a 1985 308 wherein one of our technicians spent over 100 hours of time in performing the belt service, as well as replacing aged gaskets/seals/fuel lines/hoses/brake lines/etc. In other words, we do our very best to ensure we overlook nothing, and address anything that appears to be amiss (yes, even the AC should blow cold ). Deferring maintenance/repairs is not in our playbook.

We're no stranger to what it means to take a F355 in for it's 5-year belt service (a feat in and of itself), only to learn the cost just doubled once the engine was out and more was revealed. Rarely do we find a car "just needs belts", as represented. We'll even re-do an entire engine-out service if our shop foreman doesn't approve of the work done by the previous shop.

I'd wager that we could count on one hand the number of sellers who operate with the same standards, and are willing to stand behind the car after the fact. I'm not implying others are wrong for having a different selling approach; we've simply opted for a different mission. As such, we're not the place to shop for a bargain and it's still a "good day" if we make friends with those who share the passion but aren't looking for what we offer. There are other cars to pursue, no doubt.

I appreciate the perspective that many of you bring to the table in these forums, including this one. Most of us here are Ferrari-people and love everything the brand stands for. It is our goal to support a healthy market for these special cars, and we are proud to be a part of their evolution.

If anyone has questions/needs clarity on our process, feel welcome to give us a shout. My cell is 404-909-6794. Our owner (Adam)'s cell is 404-886-5031

I've attached a few photos of the Mondial T coupe during the service process. It's still in progress, but we're nearing the end. She's coming along nicely and we'll have photos up soon enough! With only a limited number of "T" coupes brought into the US, we are very pleased to have this one!

I've seen a couple.

Last year, a completely disassembled Mondial 8 was sold in Florida. Engine was out and totally disassembled. I bid on it up to $8K. I think it eventually went for $12K.

Last month, AaronATS (on this site) bought a Mondial that wasn't running. I think the asking price was $19K. Not sure how much he actually gave. https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/advice-on-ebay-8.575615/#post-145977520

If this happened, this was an error on our part. As many of you know, we do not play games, we sell fully sorted turn-key Ferraris, and while some disagree with our prices, others appreciate the piece of mind that comes with buying a Ferrari from us, and understand that usually the "cheap" Ferraris turn out to cost the most

 

Re the Merlin t coupe (no affiliation, etc): I have spoken to Chris at Merlin and must say he has been very forthcoming about the history of the car and the work being done on it now (in house); I’ve even been provided pics of the work in progress. Thank you Merlin.

All, thanks for the input, I appreciate it. And Temple, you're right a Split S in a Prowler didn't work!

 

ebay Mondial- This is not my car, no connection

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1981-Ferrari-Mondial-8/253656675484?hash=item3b0f1db49c:g:xr0AAOSwh2FbDdMD&vxp=mtr

I admire the honesty of the ad. Going to be a tough sell I think, given that these cars are hard to sell in original condition. If i were in the market for a Mondial project coupe, the owner's forthcoming description gives me a lot of confidence in what it is and is not. My 2 cents.

What do you guys/gals think?

 

No affiliation to this. Anyone familiar with this Mondial? Looks like a nice deal. Almost tempted to give my 89 328 a roommate.

Looks a lot like this one for $10k more:

For $33k I’d buy it in a heartbeat...
