    Enjoying unusual high temperatures here near Montréal I just can't resist to use my 3,2 as a daily driver and by the way, take some pictures and some videos, question of ending nicely year 2009.




    It is truly unexpected and last Friday I was preparing myself to mentally deal with the recurrent sadness of winterizing my exotics.



    Here are some pictures taken from this last Saturday to Monday:

    What a great looking Mondial. I can see why you are trying to get every last drop of the driving season. :)

    Thanks all of you guys!

    I try to keep it very clean ( it helped the previous owner was also very careful ) and the next steps will be to improve suspension and get some more hp while detailing the engine bay ...


    I got a lot of compliments about the car, last Sunday at the gas station 3 to 5 persons gathered spontaneously around it. They were obviously impressed and very curious about this rare Ferrari!


    Today I parked it on the grass and leaves ...


    Cheers!

    Thanks Scaledetails and BOKelly!

    This car is a real pleasure to drive as a daily driver, for sure when you rev it, it makes a lot of noise, oups! I mean a lot of music! but if you are not in a mood to listen to this music loud, you only shift on higher gear and voilà!

    DonJuan348, yes, eventually I will paint these parts but I will do it at the same time of a total respray. I have a lot of projects for this car.

    It is only my first year of ownership, and I am pretty happy of what I did until now.


    Cheers!


    P.S. I will try to post new pictures tonight ...

    That is about the nicest best kept Mondials I have seen of late. Save the breed!

    Very pretty Mondial.
    I especially like the wooden steering wheel. It fits beautiful in the interior.
    Congrats on your beautiful Ferrari.
