Solid FeCl3 (ferric chloride or Fe(III) chloride) is indeed ionic. there are two forms the anhydrous and hexahydrate FeCl3.6H2O.
In the vapour phase it forms a dimer Fe2Cl6 which has the same chlorine bridged structure, Al2Cl6 ,as aluminium trichloride does in the vapour phase. The bonding in this well its probably best described as polar covalent.

What is a non example of a covalent compound?
Ionic compounds are salts or oxides as NaCl, LiF, MgCl2, MgO, UCl4, ThO2, CsCl, CaCl2, FeCl3, AlCl3.
Is FeCl3 molecular?
FeCl3 is formed from a metal (Fe) and a non metal (Cl), so it is, for the most part, IONIC. However, the electronegativity difference between the two atoms is great enough to give this compound significant covalent property (molecular).
What is the name of the compound Iron III chloride?
FeCl3
