    I finally decided to subscribe and post some pics of my 88 Mondial 3.2. The pics were taken on the way to Canyon Lake (east of Phx.). I hope these show up since I've never done this before.

    Make sure the resolution doesn't exceed 800x600, and add the pictures as attachments when posting. Hope this helps!

    Oh and if it's too much trouble converting them down to 800x600, just go to www.imageshack.us and upload them (unlimited size and resolution!). Now get those pics up :D

    That's a nice looking Mondial.
    Black suits it very well.

    Now that is a fantastic looking Mondial, that should shut up those who say that the Mondial does not look good.

    Hi everyone,
    Thanks for the positive replies. I'm pretty proud of this thing so photos are always being taken. I'm always trying to find the right location. I will post more pics in the future.
    Russ, I would definatley tint your car since you live in he southwest as well. The newer tint films have excellent UV protection which I believe is a must for preserving your leather. Go with a light or medium tint that way You can still see and be seen(LOL). I'm still playing around with the heater issue, I'll fill you in on that in the tech forum.

    Thanks for the advice on tinting!
    My '88 coupe is #75039 - perhaps we're closely related?

    Yes, great photos, super looking car.

    Everything about it looks to be in excellent condition.

    Is that a lite polish on those wheels??? They look great. I had my wheels polished as well.

    I personally luv polished wheels but some of Fchat seems to frown on anything shiny. Oh well.

    Thanks for posting the photos.

    Very nice. Nothing wrong with the mondials- they may not be the fastest ferrari but they are also the most affordable! And they're still ferrari!

    Hah right again! I love classic Ferrari's in black. They're so badass. 308, 328, Mondial... 348. They look devilish in black :D

    Agreed. I just put on the 3.2 wheels on my 82 Mondial and that improved the look. With the black bumpers, if I made the switch to black it would look closer to a 3.2. Thanks for the pics, great car.

    Beautiful pics of a gorgeous Mondial! As a former resident of Tempe, Phx, and Glendale, those shots bring back some great memories of trips out to Canyon Lake. Keep 'em coming! I really miss Phoenix sometimes... :(

    You are in possession of a great car!
    Had a nice time chatting with you this afternoon. Hopefully I can help you out in finding the service records.
