Equipment
3.4L quad-cam V8 paired with a five-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes a limited-slip differential, a black soft top and boot cover, air conditioning, and a Sony stereo.
Condition
Not perfect by Ferrari standards—the A/C needs a refresh and there appears to have been a minor rear-end hit in its past—but by Mondial standards it's still very good. An 11,863-mile "T" model in classic colors represented with recent maintenance (timing belt, catalytic converters, radiator, hood shocks, brakes, control arm bushings), it ticks a lot of the right boxes.
Market commentary
Not enough boxes, however, to justify the "perfect-plus" price point it achieved, at least in our eyes. Now, though, pretty much everything with a prancing horse badge is now beyond what anybody would call "entry level." What this means for the rest of the hobby isn't clear, but it still seems like one of those end-of-an-era moments worth acknowledging. Let's pour one out for the affordable Ferrari.
