Ferrari
Mondial 3.2 Spider
(1985-1989)
In
July 1982 it was fitted with four valves per cylinder, which boosted its power
by 26 to 240 horsepower, which could be felt from 2000 rpm and really kicked in
at 5500 rpm. The Cabriolet shown at the Brussels show in January 1983, was at
first only destined for the North American market. It was the first topless
Ferrari since the Daytona Spider. Its shape was tinged with honest aggression,
even with the roof on, and it turned out to be a success.
