Overview

 

The Ferrari market is currently on fire. Although the Mondial has been slower to catch up to the explosive values of 308 and 328 two seaters. that has recently begun to change. The Mondail is one of the fastest moving entry level models in the Ferrari stable. and the only convertible featuring rear seats.

 

This specific example has received a near full restoration by renown Italian car experts Roadster Salon. Upgrades include late version cosmetics. a new leather interior featuring Ferrari saddle upholstery and Wilton wool carpets. and full mechanical service by our factory trained technician. New leather boot in matching interior material. new top. and reconditioned Ferrari 348 wheels--replacing the outdated metric originals (still included).

 

Please do not confuse this particular Mondial with any other currently on Ebay. It is an accident and rust free. spectacular example featuring all the key ingredients to make this entry level Ferrari a car to cherish for many years to come. Only 19. 86 miles!

Cosmetic Impressions

 

Paint appears to be original and nearly flawless. Roadster Salon took the liberty to bring the car in line with the last examples of the Mondial. with a fresh monochromatic update. Bumpers. fascia and mirrors were expertly matched to the existing paint for a mid-90's look. Effect is augmented by the 348 series wheels. which is a huge cosmetic and practical upgrade from stock. There are no significant scratches or door dings to betray the show quatlity exterior. Simply incredible--grade A.

 

The national award winning Roadster Salon interior craftsman were long at work on this sweetheart. Custom front and rear seats. along with center console and other key components were fabricated in stunning original grade Ferrari Saddle material. The result surpasses the factory look. with a fresh updated appearance. Retail price of interior alone was over $10K.

 

Mechanical Impressions

 

Car has been fully serviced and updated by nationally recogized Ferrari Specialist Roberto D'Avola. Engine. transmission and undercarriage have all been carefully inspected and addressed. New tires will be provided in customer choice of size if car meets price goals. Both original wheels and new 348 style wheels and tires are included. No leaks or smells. Clutch is fresh. Car has only 19K original miles so expectations should be set accordingly. High standard through out.

 

Driving Impressions

 

The Ferrari driving experience is incomparable to any other car. Vintage Ferraris no less so. The Mondial is of particular interest--especially in convertible form. It appeals to an entirely different class of buyer. The ultimate "ice cream car". perfect for taking the wife and kids to soccer and for a cone after the game. While most buyers would never consider the practical aspects of owning a collector quality exotic. the Mondial actually displays great versatility an charm.

 

It can be driven with gusto as all Ferrari's can--but it also can be driven more sedately. This car is just as content cruising with the kids as it is at redline. Just a stunningly beautiful car that is less restrictive than other Ferrari models.

 

We limited our actual driving to less than 100 miles post restoration. but enjoyed every minute and detail. Seats are freshly padded and comfortable. Shifting is precise. and acceleration robust. And oh that lovely Italian engine melody behind your head. Just a joy to drive!

 

Market Value

 

Throw away the books on this one.  Roadster Salon regularly sells restored Fiat and Alfa convertibles to market supported prices well above $50K. with some models exceeding $80K. While admittedly high numbers. the prices are a reflection of our attention to detail. passion. and quality.

 

This particular Mondial is not a frame off restoration. as that level of attention wasn't necessary. However. all areas of needing to be refurbished were done expertly. Frame off Ferrari restorations start well into six figures. Considering the finished product and well thought/executed cosmetic choices. this Mondial should easily bring our very fair asking price.

Classic Convertible Recreations

About Us

 

Pininfarina designed automobiles have been described as rolling works of art. Like a conservator who restores a classic painting to its original splendor—our artisans take forgotten. road weary Spiders. and return them to a time when they were loved and enjoyed. Our spiders are hand crafted by a team of certified Ferrari mechanics and Italian car specialist. Every chassis is thoroughly screened. refurbished and tested---so that new memories can be built confidently with the turn of a key. Roadster Salon recreates memories of our youth. Simpler times of sunny days. wind in our hair. troubles left behind and a curvy road ahead.

Roadster Salon spiders are the evolution of a classic ideal. built to be enjoyed whenever the passion arises. Our intention is not to make a brand new car. Even our most ambitious projects do not change every nut and bolt. We seek to restore beauty. improve reliability. and retain practicality. Roadster Salon Spiders are meant to be driven and enjoyed. not just shipped from show to show.

 

We currently offer four models intended to fit the needs of most customers. From the austere Classico. the high value Basso. premium Avanzato model. to the exotic Ultimo--each package offers superior value for the dollar. Every car can be built to suit the needs and tastes of individual clients. New offerings like the Lusso package and Spider Corsa provide even further inspiration. Custom features. options and color selections are yours to decide. The process is interactive. You dream it. we build it.

 

 

 

LUXURY AUTO GROUP/ Internet remarketing solutions

Buying a car at a dealership can be daunting. High pressure salespeople.
Limited selection. Adversarial negotiations. Not much fun.

But buying a car on the internet has its own unique challenges. The most
obvious concern is an online shopper's inability to test drive and evaluate
the car in person. While internet pricing can be attractive. some feel that
the unknowns outweigh the benefits. Horror stories about flawed vehicle
histories. incomplete documentation. misrepresentations. selective
disclosure. and title problems make many potential buyers cringe.

The staff is your eyes and ears. We are marketing company representing
our own inventory. sourced from some of the finest luxury car dealers in Chicago. Our commitment to complete customer satisfaction is
unwavering.

 

Internet Marketing Philosophy

In our changing marketplace. internet sales have become a vital component to
every dealer's sales profile. The internet provides us with a low cost venue
to sell select inventory at near wholesale prices without compromising the
resources of a dealer's retail sales operation.

Internet car sales can take several forms. such as online classifieds and
auctions. The most popular. and arguably the most challenging. is Internet
sales. Our listings are generally offered on-line between five and ten day
time frames.

We have represented over 1000 fine automobiles on the
internet during the past ten years. The vast majority of these vehicles
were sold without the buyer seeing the vehicle prior to his commitment. How
was this possible? Our success can be directly attributed to our unique
ability to evaluate inventory with consistency. insight and professionalism.
This talent extends beyond our hands on assessment of a vehicles cosmetic
and mechanical condition. It also includes our research of various data
bases to determine past road history and service records. More than half of
the vehicles we are asked to represent are rejected immediately because of
obvious defects or concerns. An additional percentage fails to make the
final cut following our research history.

Our company randomly collects/studies data from past internet transactions. We
have surveyed customers about their online experiences. Direct interviews
and focus data are also compiled in an effort to better understand the
Internet consumer. We have worked tirelessly to upgrade and improve our
services. from the way our vehicles are screened and selected for Internet
sale. to delivery and aftercare procedures. The lessons learned are
insightfully applied to our Internet Marketing Program.

Only the most fully sorted pre-owned vehicles in our inventory are presented
through our Internet marketing program.

In conclusion. regardless of venue. it all comes down to the quality of the
inventory represented. While cliché. you can never pay too much for a great
car. It also follows that a bargain price does not assure satisfaction.

Luxury Auto Group knows the difference.
