    "You know it's funny how sometimes a car isn't particularly popular, and then suddenly it seems to become a thing and gaining in popularly. And there was one car for sure that everyone thought it was never going to become popular and never particularly going to be liked. I'm here at the Classic London classic car show, and was thinking it is about to establish itself as something that people will really want."

    At least he admits that maybe he was wrong with “nobody loves a Mondial”. I certainly love my 83 QV Rosso Corsa. Not sure if it matters that the price might go up now. I doubt I would sell mine.

    I have a feeling that the Mondial will be just like the Dino no one like it but look at it now.

    About 10 years ago, it was 10 bad reviews for a Mondial and 0 good ones.

    Now it's 10 good reviews to one 1 bad one. You know times have changed when Chris Harris of all people loves driving it. A far cry when Clarkson declared it dog food.

    Time is good all Ferrari.

    Consider this gentleman:

    Gated? (check)
    Pininfarina? (check)
    Non-Hybrid (check)
    Each model is limited? (check) - Each Mondial variant is < 1,000 cars (when you say 5% part out percentage) - what is now considered "limited edition."
    No Nannies? (check)
    No OPF? (check)
    Approved by Enzo himself? (check)
    Some places don't require cats (check)
    Manual Steering on some models (check)


    These are things enthusiasts drool over and cars today will never have again. No brainer if one can get past clickbait. Seems like more and more people already have.

    I don't think it will ever be as popular as the Dino, and that's fine. I need my parts cheap. (getting close to 70K miles on my car)

    :)

    I go to the stock market to invest, I go to my garage to drive.
