The Mondial was Ferrari’s second 2+2 mid-engine and for almost 10 years it was the only prancing horse model available as both a coupe and a convertible.
During its 13 year production run, several versions came to market: first there was the 8, then the QV (Quattro Valvole), the 3.2 and finally, the t. The Mondial is also the first Ferrari which utilized injection instead of carburetors as a fuel system.

Even today, the Mondial 8 is considered Ferrari’s most practical car, despite its unappealing performance. Engine maintenance is also a minor stress factor with this one as it can be usually performed without the engine/transmission subframe.
