Wow! That is a very cool, neat machine: )
Well done you!
Interesting to compare, because yours looks to be of similar vintage to mine.
Without the later 90s, too flashy for me, multi-coloured paintwork that became fashionable a little later in the 90s. I've had a couple of similar period Simoncinis that had 'over the top' paint jobs...
Do you know what year yours is? Frame tubing?
I've spent many hours online trying to find another similar to mine, with little success as yet!
I know these Carreras are few & far between in UK, so I knew it was a long shot posting here. I've posted on Bikeforums in USA, & others, with very little results.
Do show us some more pics & info about yours please.
I got lots to show about mine, & as you say, there should be a dedicated thread on here.
We could keep this thread going I'm sure: )
Carreras are proper Italian exotics IMHO. Just not known enough. Yet!
Mine has these amazing, almost shoulderless Unicrown forks that really please my eye.

I do not think they are original, but they are so pleasing to me.
Yours looks to have the Carrera One headbadge too: )
