Maranello's Underdog? LA's Ferrari Mondial - Behind the Wheel EP9

- When it comes to owning entry-level exotics, it's hard to leave out the Ferrari Mondial. A purebred grand tourer, the Mondial's 2+2 design turns it less desirable than the Icons of the Outrun Era for some. Today, the Mondial remains as a relatively low-cost prancing horse from the 1980s, offering utility in the use of a daily driver...traits unseen from the GTB's and 328's of the era. With some examples selling well under 100k, it's hard to find a more accessible way for lovers of 80's exotics to experience an Italian V8 with a gated manual.
Achieving his childhood dream of owning a classic Ferrari, LA combines his lifelong passion with tuner influence. Join him as he takes us behind the wheel of one of Maranello's true underdogs.

Looks fantastic! The Mondial is looking cooler and cooler as time goes on. I'm glad to see the appreciation for these special cars is growing.
Couldn't agree more!
I have an '86 Mondial 3.2 Cabriolet. From October through March, it sits in the garage, hibernating. But from spring until early autumn, it's my daily driver.
Great car! It's fun to drive, looks great, and practical.
Love the Mondial, under rated cars, true Ferrari mid engine V8, gated shifter, pininfarina design and not many actually built by todays production number comparisons even versus modern Ferrari's. Mostly this gentleman seems to be a very kind humble enthusiast. A lesson in his demeanor and character for the haters out there. Different cars and tastes for all but this guys an example of how to conduct yourself regardless of what you drive or like. Bravo
Find him on instagram @la_garage_22 !
What a car, most people hate the Mondial, but I love it ❤️ so practical and what a great job you have done! 👌💪 Absolutely stunning 💗
Being a custodian of an ‘88 Mondial 3.2 coupe, I appreciate this video. I am always on the lookout for reputable service and restoration shops. I am impressed with the team at Ferrari of Rancho Mirage. Always open to suggestions or opinions, of course.
Well done video, Sir! These Mondial cars have been much maligned in the Ferrari community, and indeed every model around the Mondial, (except the Mondial,) has appreciated in value and has been appreciated since the ‘80’s. I LOVE my Mondial! Great car!
Keep it ‘80’s!
Find him on instagram @la_garage_22 !
Love 80's Ferrari's, cool car man 😎
Wheels are perfect. Super cool!
Thinking about approaching a 400i the same. Although 400i evaluation numbers are not good but the wheels give it presence. Well done.
Great, this just sent me down a rabbit hole of looking at Mondials and 355s. lol. Great video guys, no feedback this time! Just keep em comin!
Not a car I’d typically check for but he made it look damn good.
Dont wait too long , they rising in price ... fast
I like this guy's attitude - a true enthusiast. And I love the car, but I'm biased :)
Looks great, the right stance.
Looks awesome 👍🏻
It’s fantastic!!!
The movie - Wired Science
I really like what you did to your Mondial, it looks so amazing. It's fantastic, it's a car to wish for. Well done!
We absolutely agree with you! Follow @la_garage_22 on instagram to see more of this Mondial build
Very glad you have shown respect to the mondial. Well done
Amazing car, love the way it looks!
Well done!
Glad you enjoy it!
I love my ‘89 t. Wished I had it back from The mechanic (7 months) 😢😢
This video makes me wanna slam my dads 86 mondial on some dished wheels .. looks absolutely fantastic. Well done bro
Simply bad ass!!
I know this video is old but this Ferrari is nice I really like this what he has done to this car and just thank you for this video🤙🏿🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
How cool is this one!!
Great Car and very nice Mods i really like what you did.
Beautiful car, that sound, oh my goodness
This in white or red would be sick
Looks fabulous in black. Really like those wheels. What a great Ferrari. Good on you from Kiwiland.
Love this story and how down to earth this guy is. Nice video and great car! Never thought I'd want one, but I really do now. This is a 308 or 348, but with kids, the Mondial makes more sense.
I made a one off of my QV . It was so lovely . Better than my 348 and about as quick believe it or not . Made my own bumpers was superb
Looks cool dude. Congrats on job well done. Now I want one. If I remember correctly it was billed by Ferrari as their version of a family car when it first came out. Well, at the least people were saying that.
1-word....SICK.
You must scrape bodyparts all the time there is almost No ground clearence 😀
It was quite a struggle getting it into our parking lot for filming haha!
The frugal man's Ferrari
Love the Rims and staggered stance. What wheels are those and did you have to lower the springs?
Awesome guy! Tasteful mods!! FYI all Ferraris look better in black and this is the best looking Mondial I've ever seen!!
Bellissima 👌
I would have given this video a "like", but this guy used them all.
I love mine!
Stance cars are not from your generation ,,,Europeans were doing that since the 60s.
The mondial was just a commuter but you made it look like a track car ...Great job.
New game....take a drink every time he says "like". Have a clear spot on the floor for you to fall down.
If only it was a hard top, it looks like it wants to be one. Beautiful nonetheless, awesome work.
love it.
🔥 What type of wheels / rims did you upgrade with?
hit up @la_garage_22 on instagram with questions!
Wheels??
hit up @la_garage_22 on instagram with questions!
What are these wheels ? Suit her so well ❤️
Those wheels make the car
He has a lot more power than an N/a mk4 supra so you’re good.. and it’s an older gen car
Love those cars don’t understand the hate
Anyone know what LA’s Instagram is? Would love to ask him some questions about this build!
Yes it's @la_built_22
Drink everytime he says "like"
I have a Mondial t coupe. 1990. I prefer to keep it original.
Are those HRE 505 wheels?
Yes they are!
Looked better stock .
The Name of the Ferrari wheels please 3pcs or ?
The best Ferrari sports car is the all analog (baby Testarossa) Ferrari 348. The 348 is the biggest bang for the buck in Ferraris. As the predecessor to the 355, the 348 has the Formula 1 exhaust note without the costly valve and active suspension issues the 355 has. Less is more in analog sports cars. Older is easier as most can work on a 348. Its now or never for 348 buyers.
wtf those rims bro, its not fast and furious
"you know *L I K E* ..."
:v
If you took a shot everytime he says 'like' you would be drunk of your rocker in the first 60 seconds.
One butchered Mondial
The mondial is one of the shittiest Ferrari models.
what Ferrari do you own?
@@keithsclassicgarage1133 He doesn’t. It’s always non owners.
And is STILL awesome!!!
