The odometer on this black Ferrari Mondial T, featured here in February of last year, hasn't moved a single click in the span of 15 months since its first listing. Conversely, the price has softened by 8%. Our attraction to this example? Steadfast, if not even stronger.
The Mondial can seem like a compromised 308 or 328, when in reality it is more fairly compared to something like the 964 generation of Porsche 911, which came to market in the 1989 model year. Both are high-end sports coupes with both engine and a pair of passengers (theoretically) located aft of the driver. From a 3.6L boxer 6, the 911 manages 247hp, while the Ferrari produces 300hp from only 3.4L of displacement. That fact that the Ferrari tops out at around 158mph while the Porsche carries on until 163mph is an indication that the Mondial T is geared to rip, with a shorter final drive. Once into the power band, the Ferrari is likely to trounce the Porsche on acceleration.
The Ferrari 456 is one of the cars that doesn't appear too often on this site out of what is admittedly a conflict of interest. Despite the fact that we aren't in a position to make a move on any of these late 90s 2+2s, we still try to avoid drumming up any interest in them, with the hopes of keeping the values sane for the day when we do finally make a move on one. And if we were to move in on one? It would be identical to this example.
Finished in a reserved Blu Pozzi deep blue paint, this Ferrari 456M GT is loud on the inside with its light blue Poltrona Frau leather interior. No shields adorn the fenders, and the wheel center cap shields are painted to match the wheels rather than stand out. It's a 456 first, and a Ferrari second, as far as we are concerned.
Beverly Hills to Las Vegas is a 280 mile stretch; Google Maps predicts a 4 hour travel time. The route crosses the Mojave Desert, lean on rainfall and law enforcement. You could fly out of Burbank, but then you'd have to rent a car once you arrive in Vegas. We'd recommend a 2+2 with some potency instead - something like today's Ferrari 365 GTC/4.
A true 1970s shape, the 365 GTC/4 body is a crisp collection of curves. Nothing is superfluous, and yet the design exudes excess, from the long tailpipes, to the wide wheels, to the exaggerated proportions, to the 3 taillights per side. The 365GT4 and 400i that would follow went a long way in refining the design for this form factor, cutting out the excess. But for a small model run of 505 examples from 1971 to 1972, the 2+2 offering from Ferrari was loud and brash - the sort of car you could expect to drive from LA to Vegas.

The mandate for this 365 GTC4 was to deliver a well sorted fast reliable Ferrari the owner could enjoy at the drop of a hat. We were instructed to completely disassemble all components, recommission and make ready for everyday driving, absolutely everything must work. The car came to us having sat for many years, first we inspected her and established very quickly that we had a real survivor and mostly original car. The engine was thoroughly checked over by Miller Ferrari of Connecticut (full report and docs available) and was found to be in very good condition with only a minor overhaul needed. The carburetors were all removed stripped down cleaned and rebuilt. All new seals, plugs and ignition kit. The radiator was sent out to be completely refurbished, all new hoses and belts fitted. A/C overhauled, replaced, cv joints, boots and clamps, water pump overhauled, timing chain tensioner seals, window systems and tracks repaired and replaced. All switches, gauges, fans and lights overhauled. Brakes and rotors overhauled. New period correct tires. Becker radio and speakers work as they should. Every nut and bolt was inspected clean repaired or replaced, no expense was spared in making this beauty sing. This stunning Ferrari is ready for a new home and spirited long distance touring. We've listed a few of the items we attended to however, there is so much more we'd be happy to discuss should you decide to call or come see her by appointment only.
Car has the following : -Rebuilt Front And Rear Brake Calipers, New Front And Rear Brake Pads and Brake Hoses, Resurfaced Brake Rotors -New Exhaust Gaskets And Hangers -Rebuilt Steering Idler Arm . -Re-Conditioned Front And Rear Shocks and Upgraded Load Levelers -New Front And Rear Suspension Bushings. -New Front And Rear Sway Bar Bushings . -New Rear Axle Bearings . -New Coolant Hoses . -New Tires . -New Hood Supports . -Powder Coated Suspension Coil Springs . -Rebuilt Water Pump . -New Trunk Seal . -engine overhauled -Complete Tune Up, Includes: New Spark Plugs, Ignition Points, Ignition Wires, Valve Adjustment, And Rebuilt Carburetors -New Air Distribution Hoses In Dash And Engine Compartment -New Air Injection Check Valves -New Fuel Filters & Canister filter -New Fuel Hoses -New Air Filters -New Coolant/Anti-Freeze -New Heater Control Valve For more information please call Grand Prix cafe at 646 250 5519.

After a long dormancy, the seller had this example gone through, from suspension to cooling system to fuel delivery. Simple from a mechanical perspective, the cost of components probably resulted in a substantial bill once all was said and done. We'd be sure to discuss the current condition of the car with the seller to see if anything was left for the next owner to address.
As far as V12 manual Ferraris go, this car is expensive, but seems to be priced pretty reasonably. The design was clearly influenced by the more-valuable Daytona, but the price tag doesn't really reflect that. We would imagine that the extra mass doesn't really detract from the driving experience, compared to the Daytona. The 324bhp on tap for North American cars should make quick work of moving the 3,200lb of mass down the road. Now, who is ready to buy this and rocket across the desert?
Yesterday we checked out the bottom of the Ferrari 360 market, so today let's take a look at what we imagine most of our readers would go for if they were in the market for a 360. It would be tough for us all to agree on color, so bear with us on the yellow. What we do hope you'll agree with us on are the gated manual shifter, Challenge rear grill, modular wheel option, and Daytona seats. Shields are a minus in our book, but floss and a hairdryer and maybe some polishing are all you need to delete those.
In today's age of supercar / high-end sports car excess, the 360 doesn't outperform the field like it once did. A modern Camaro SS 1LE will put it to shame on the track, after all. And, a 20 year-old, not-quite-classic Ferrari is an odd choice for a status symbol. So, if you're in the market for one of these, hopefully it's due to an admiration for what the car represented when it came out. It's the first aluminum space-frame mid-engine V8 Ferrari, with a fire-breathing 395hp over-square 3.6L behind the driver. It has one of the coolest shapes of late 90s automotive design, and the interior design holds up even today.
This is an incredibly beautiful 2000 Ferrari 360 Modena with the very rare and desirable 6-speed manual transmission. The options on this car include the deviated stitching in yellow, Scuderia shields, Daytona seats with yellow inserts, very rare modular wheels, and rear challenge grill. It also comes with a Remus exhaust which gives it a deeper tone and screams at wipe open throttle! All of the normal "sticky" parts have been addressed and refinished. The dash leather was redone due to the common leather shrinkage that is common on all 360's. The recall on the cam variator has been taken care of as well. Car comes with the tool kit, tire inflator kit, manual pounch, and red satin car cover. We have service records on the car that go back to 2005. The last belt service was performed in February of 2017. This car was judged at an FCA Ferrari event and won a platinum award with a score of 97 points. The paint has been wet-sanded and polished to near perfection and then sealed with cermaic coating to protect the show car finish.

The front of the engine, where the serpentine and timing belts are situated, is accessible to technicians through the removal of the front seats and a firewall panel. This lends to generally palatable service prices, when compared to removing the entire rear subframe, such as is required on an F355. Records dating back to 2005 are a plus here, and the 2017 timing belt service is a good point of reference, but does mean that a timing belt service is coming up soon - something to factor in when negotiating a sale.
For the price of this 360, you could have yourself a C8 Corvette that will run laps around it at the track. And you'll come out way ahead on service costs, should you go that route, especially if you plan on tracking either option. The daily usability will be much better on the Corvette too - it should be no-less tame than a Tahoe in day-to-day use. And yet, we prefer the Ferrari, which was produced to protect a brand image over a bottom line.
This is not the way to buy a 360 Spider, let alone any Ferrari. The way to find the right 360 is to shop for the car with the best history - title status, service records, miles - and then to decide if the color, wheels, and transmission suit your taste. Dredging the bottom of the market is generally not advisable.
But there is something about a 100k mile Ferrari that has us intrigued. Looking over the interior and exterior photos of this car, we can't pick up on any substantial flaws. And, were we to guess the mileage based on condition, we'd say 30k max.
-New Car Trade and a Clean carfax! -Probably one of the most fun cars you could ever drive!! -This car is almost pristine with no major blemishes to note, even has a clear bra to protect the front -Garage kept its entire life -Paint is in excellent shape and the car drives better than 360's we've had with 1/4 the miles -Belt service done and clutch within the last 500 miles -Great set of matching performance tires on staggered 3 piece wheels! -Challenge grille, all stock mechanically, amazing color combo!!! -When I took it for a test drive it performed exactly as it should, I noted nothing for the shop to address based on a 10 mile drive!

At this mileage, we'd expect to see creased leather seats, warped leather on the dashboard, scuffs and scrapes, and other signs of heavy use. We don't detect any of that here. A fastidious owner who enjoyed driving and maintaining his car is likely to thank for this. The belt service and the clutch were even performed within the last 500 miles. These are substantial selling points and the majority of the expensive service one would expect to pay for on a 360. To have them complete out of the box is a great benefit to future owners.
We'd prefer the traditional manual transmission to the automated unit in this car, and we'd be quick to install the modular wheel options. The Challenge rear grill is always a welcome modification in our books, though. Silver over tan is a very appealing combination to us, and we like the optional Daytona seats on this example. We hope that the next owner of this car cares for it as completely as the previous owner did. Who know, someday it might even show 200k miles on the clock.
It's a gated shifter manual Ferrari weekend here at CICFS, thanks to the weather. We were about to write up a miserable Alfetta sedan project when a look outside at the bleak fall winter landscape led us to some more optimistic searches. Ferrari 360 Spider it is.
As far as 360 Spiders go, this example is the cream of the crop. We'll forgive the fender shields (too loud) for compensations such as the common Challenge Stradale rear grille, modular wheel option, and the Verde Zeltwig (green) paint with a tan top to boot. Someone with our sense of style must have ordered this machine.

As with all 360s, maintenance is not the nightmare that once characterized longitudinal Ferrari V8 service. Through an access panel in the engine firewall, technicians can access the engine timing belts and serpentine belt, allowing for a reasonable 'major' service with the simple removal of the front seat(s). In light of the upsides - a Ferrari V8 powertrain mounted midship - we're inclined to accept the compromise.
With the disclaimer that we interest ourselves more with the mechanical and historical side of Italian cars, and less with following market prices, we will say that this example is priced a bit more fairly than we would expect. Expensive for 360, though it is, the rare color, 6-speed manual, and low mileage certainly command a premium, and in this case, it seems to be a fair one.
You almost have to pity Ferrari when it comes to development and manufacturing costs. A niche automaker such as Ferrari cannot spread the development and tooling costs for each new model over a large production run like GM can with the Corvette, for example. When GM decided to move the Corvette to a completely new mid-engine chassis, it did so with the prospect of 25-30,000 sales annually, a luxury not available to Ferrari.
Ferrari manages development costs by sharing powertrains and vehicle platforms. The 612 lead the way in aluminum front-ship V12 chassis development for the 599 GTB Fiorano (sadly, it didn't pass on its styling grace). And, the 575 Superamerica, a limited-production model, shared its similar tipo F 133 V12 with the Scaglietti, spreading out the development costs over the two models.

This example shows a healthy crop of miles on the odometer. Often, this means that the vehicle is in better health, having required frequent tending to in order to hit the road so often. Given the mileage, the interior is holding up better than expected. Leather for seats in this category of vehicle isn't selected for lasting quality. No, it just needs to look, feel, and smell decadent when the car is purchased new. Though the car wears the 19" HGTC handling package wheels, it doesn't appear to have the chrome exhaust grilles, so it's likely just a wheel upgrade and doesn't contain the other components of the handling package.
Manual shift 612 Scagliettis have never really dropped in price, and looking back at one we posted in 2015, prices have increased by 30%, give or take. Not an explosion by any means, but disheartening for manual 2+2 fans of modest means. As the story goes, the 612 was succeeded by the FF hatchback, available in automated-manual only. An impressive vehicle, the FF, but it's no manual V12 GT. For those looking for a modern Ferrari grand tourer with a manual transmission, the 612 is really the only option.
Our childhood Ferrari experience, like for most, was of the Matchbox car variety. As far as we can remember, it was a yellow Ferrari 250 GTO that introduced us to the brand. And later, there was the yellow Testors Ferrari F50 model car kit to complement our black Lamborghini Diablo. As such, we're more drawn to Ferraris in the bright Giallo Modena than in the traditional Rosso Corsa.
Today's yellow example of a Ferrari 612 is standard 612 fare. Its Tipo F 133 F 5.7L V12 engine represents the pinnacle of that engine range, on street cars at least. Debuting in 1992 in the 612's predecessor, the Ferrari 456, the series of 65 degree V12s peaked with the 612 and its 530hp at a lofty 7,250 RPM - screaming for a GT, and yet so appropriate for a Ferrari.

The advantage to buying a car with a tried-and-true engine platform comes in the service department. Despite the 612's modern appearance, it retains a simpler engine design than the later Enzo-based Tipo F 140 engine series. Unfortunately, the transaxles on the 612 aren't the best at managing clutch slip, as evidenced by the 20k mile clutch replacement on this car. Another negative of this car is the front bumper alignment - we can't tell if it's just contracted for some reason, or whether it's a result of accident repair.
Our ideal yellow 612 would encompass a light tan interior, if only to avoid the bumblebee color scheme. The dark grey wheels would also see replacement with lighter silver units, though we do really like the Ferrari Challenge style of wheel on the big Ferraris. We could also do without the yellow interior trim, but that is easily rectified. At around $100k and only 20k miles, we won't say that this car represents a great value. But, are there really any great values with V12 Ferraris?
How about another poster boy for 1980s sports sedan creativity? By now, the Lancia Thema 8.32 hardly requires introduction. The result of the Type Four collaboration among Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Fiat, and Saab, the Thema was Lancia's premium mid-size sedan from the late 1980s into the 1990s. With an engine design from Marenello and assembly help from Ducati in Bologna, the Thema 8.32 received a modified variant of the Dino V8, called the Tipo 105L in cross-plane form.
Thema 8.32s are lustworthy on principal; how many sleepy European sedans got Ferrari lumps, ever? So we don't mean to throw a wet blanket on the idea in pointing out that Alfa Romeo totally won the Type Four platform contest. Ever care to look up the power numbers for an Alfa Romeo 164 Q4? If you've already bought your Thema 8.32, skip to the end of this post. Alright, ready? The 164 Q4 made a cool 232hp vs 212hp in the Thema 8.32. Better yet, it routed that power through an AWD driveline, thereby quelling the inherent torque-steer of a high-power FWD drivetrain.
Ferrari V8 Powered Executive Sedan ... fresh engine-out service, fully sorted, professionally restored and mechanically A1. Truly cherry.
Rare and remarkable Ferrari V8 powered executive saloon. The car being offered for sale was recently discovered by our team in Italy and has undergone a full mechanical restoration and a thorough cosmetic refresh, inside and out in the last six months. We have just imported the car and all paperwork is in order.
We started with a very original, low mileage example in very good overall condition. Front subframe and engine were removed for a complete engine out service and rebuild. The Ferrari V8 received a full valve job, new rings, new flywheel, new clutch and fully refreshed ignition and fuel injection systems. The engine, cover and manifolds were refinished in the original colors and finishes. Driveshafts and drive system serviced and refreshed. Engine compartment cleaned and detailed prior to engine reinstallation. New full exhaust system installed.
Exterior panels were refinished in original factory shade of metallic red. Double clear coat laid over the metallic burgundy finish and hand sanded to a high luster. Bumper covers repainted. The undercarriage is rust and damage free, undercoating has been refreshed as required. Wheels have been cleaned, inspected and refreshed, fitted with period correct tires all around with 75% tread depth remaining. Comes with a second set of new, period correct tires.

Elephant in the room: this seller wants almost $40k for a nearly 100,000 mile Thema 8.32. $40k is collector money for a car that has most definitely exceeded a collector level of mileage. Is the condition collector-worthy? Well, the engine has seen some major rework, including a claimed rebuild and some head work. The exterior was refinished in the original color, while the interior remains original. Sounds like the basis for an excellent car, yes, but we don't see the original condition often sought by collectors. More than anything, the seller is banking on the rarity of the car leading to a rather optimistic price.
We would need quite a large collection before we'd shell out nearly $40k for a Thema 8.32. And that collection would definitely include an Alfa Romeo 164 Q4. Moreover, we'd go for a common Alfa Romeo 164 Q, without the AWD, before we'd pick up the Thema 8.32. Better styling, quicker acceleration, higher top speed, and better handling rule the 164 Q superior. But, there is no denying the appeal of a Lancia with a Ferrari engine, and we love the Thema 8.32 for that reason. Hopefully we can share a more realistically-priced Thema 8.32 for you all in the near future.
Following up yesterday's top-of-the-heap Mondial T, let's take a look at a flawless, original Mondial QV, sitting in the middle of the pack. To start off, we need to address the fact that Ferrari sold four distinct Mondial models throughout the nameplate's lifetime. With each model came a new iteration of the Dino V8.
The Mondial 8 debuted in 1980 with its 16-valve, 214hp fuel-injected V8. The QV added its namesake of quattrovalvole or 4-valve (per cylinder) heads, and a modest step down in compression in 1982. The Mondial 3.2, our personal favorite due to have the highest power of the transversely mounted cars, bumps up the bore, stroke, and compression ratio to get to a 270hp 3.2L iteration for 1985. These are the last of the cars in which a belt service can be performed with the engine in situ. In 1989, the Mondial T ushered in the new longitudinal powertrain layout that Ferrari would maintain for all future mid-engined sports cars. Mondial Ts were equipped with the bored and stroked 3.4L Dino V8, whose bump in compression and displacement netted 300hp.

his is an original Gray exterior car with red leather interior. The car was painted about a year ago in the same original gray color. To get the car ready for the new paint t all the glass, bumpers, lights and moldings were removed. The primary reason for painting the car was due to clear coat peeling off. All the body panels and trim pieces were kept the same original color. The interior leather, carpet, dash and headliner are all original and in very good original condition. The driver seat foam was strengthen due to age and the original leather cover was reinstalled. The condition of the interior shows the car was well taken care of and was parked indoor all its life.
Complete engine out service on 10/26/2015 at 37,097 miles including replacement of timing belt, tensioner, seals, drive belts, new coolant, engine oil, transmission oil, spark plugs, water pump, etc. The total cost of the service was $12,520.
The emission system is completely new including air pump, valves injector lines, and catalytic converters. The Car easily passes the strict California emission without any issues which speaks to the condition of the engine.
New clutch, pressure plate, releasing bearing, and starter was installed on 10/1/2016 at 37,624 miles at the cost of $2,942. The clutch is upgraded kevlar material and the pressure plate is upgraded plate from 328 model.
Every power accessory works as they should including power windows, door locks, mirrors, antenna and the power sunroof which is very rare on these cars to operate properly. Air Conditioning blows cold air and keeps the cabin at a comfortable temperature in southern California summer heat. It has a Pioneer CD player with an auxiliary input to connect to your phone, there is an amplifier under the passenger's seat.
The car has aftermarket 7"x16" and 8"x16" wheels that look identical to the original OEM rims but without the issue of being stuck with the Michelin TRX metric tires. The wheels were bought from Superformance in UK and they are also made in UK. The tires are like brand new and have almost full tread. The car comes with the complete, unused OEM tools, jack, spare bulb, emergency light, books, first aid kit, and custom made car cover. The spare tire is brand new and has never been installed on the car. You can find cheaper Mondials but if you are looking for a Mondial that it is in excellent condition with complete and up to date service history, you will not find another one. By the time you spend the money that I have spent on the paint and services for another Mondial, it will cost you more than my asking price. This is a perfect car for someone that enjoys driving their Ferrari on a regular basis and wants a car that is all original and in perfect condition. Please note the car will be sold with the original steering wheel that is in very good condition, the MOMO steering wheel on the car is not for sale, I will install the original steering wheel prior to delivery of the car to the new owner.
I drive the car on a regular basis both in heavy traffic and freeways without any issues. The current mileage on the car is 39,700 miles, I drive the car on a regular basis and the mileage may increase during the listing period. I have a clean California title in hand with current registration for the car until September of 2019.
I have all the invoices for the work that was done to the car by a local Ferrari shop.
You may contact me at (310) 892-2177. The car is located in Newport Beach, California. I will assist with shipment.

We are hard-pressed to issue a single complaint about this Mondial QV. Perhaps we'd prefer the 3.2 and the bump in power, but that's hardly fair to what seems to be a fully-functional and original example. In addition to the clean engine work, including the full water pump and belt service, the car has a fresh clutch and pressure plate. Cosmetic work, such a glass-out repaint to address peeling clear coat, and new seat foam under the original, surviving seat covers has been carried out neatly, and with skill.
We think it's easiest to pull off a Mondial when you own that it's a Mondial and wear the Ferrari badge modestly. That's why we like this Mondial - it's been optioned with a less-common color combination that restricts the Ferrari red to those sitting inside the car, and thankfully lacks the Ferrari shields on the front fenders. Amazing how fresh a Mondial can present after so many years of proper care. The current owner claims that mileage could increase before sale due to the fact that he drives the car often - good on him. We hope the new seller keeps in line with this and drives this car as often as possible.
