The noises are straight from a a 60s F1 car and well as the driving sensation. I will never sell the BB nothing like it.
My first F was a 328 I enjoyed it very much until I drove my 512BB and was blown away by the 512 nothing like 12cylinders in a flat 12 with Webers. Performance is spirited in the 328 but its not nor ever been a world class performer as the 512BB in its day and even now.
Mondials are for a different type of F owner someone that likes to cruise and maybe has kids or the need for 4 seats not a Mullholland Canyon blaster both 308\328 or Mondial would be left in the dust by any modern semi perfomance car made today they also have tricky handling due to sideways mounted motors except the T Mondy and high center of gravity as well. A hopped up early 911 such as the Mull RSR or 930 driven well would have time for a latte at Starbucks till they showed up.
