    I had to post this again, as it's been a few pages back since I picked up Rachel from Eugenio's. I must tell you this----------the sound of a 348 plant, equipped with Hyper-flows and X-OST, is simply amazing. How's this; it's quiet when you back off. It doesn't DRONE - - - EVER!!!!---------But she will sing at the drop of your right foot. AMAZING------- thanks Daniel @ RICAMBI.

    As I said in the other thread, it looks terrific.
    What tires did you decide on and how do you characterize them?
    Congrats on a great car.

    Thanks a lot guys, it feels great to see it is appreciated, I have always been a Mondial lover, and this proves it. I went with Kumho's, they were on sale at Tire Rack, 215' 45s fronts, and 235' 40's rears if I remember correctly.
    Scott, you now have a twin sister.
    Hank, congrats on your 1500, now go drive your beauty!!!

    Thanks! My wife picked up the color combination. I added the sunroof and the full leather interior.

    Nathan, The rims are from a company in Florida called Highline Wheels. They are 18" with 224/40/18 tires up front and 265/35/18 tires in the rear. They bolt right up without any spacers. However, different lug bolts must be used. I think style is called G-Force. These are not true 3 piece but rather a one piece wheel designed to look modular. This was ok for me since they were pretty inexpensive. Carlos Yanez is who helped me there and can be reached at 1-866-409-1600.

    First time I hear about a Mondial Michelotto.
    What's the story behind?

    This Mondial was bought by a man in Mexico around 1985 from FOH, he requested to have the car modified for more power. Mr. Risi arranged for this car to be taken to Michelotto where they installed a turbocharger, it produces around 400hp. This car now resides in an auto museum in Mexico.
