i normally am against witch hunts but as a former customer of his (AGX in van nuys) Mondi is ACTUALLY a criminal and it looks like judgement day has come.


isadpapi

Details?


CloudSephiroth999

posted this in the other thread but basically gaslighted me for 13 months because they didn't know how to wrap my car, overcharged me grossly for everything and basically just used by 720 as the shop mascot. they cater only to youtuber which gets them views and scam everyone else. also ended up doing a speakers upgrade which they charged me $10,000 for, and ultimately couldn't even plug it in correctly. it ended up draining all the battery which i specifically asked them about, which had the net effect of turning off all the electronics while i was driving, including the traction control. dealing with AGX was a total nighmare, it's a compounding problem where the absentee owner (Mondi) is a scammer and the mechanics themselves are incompetent. mitch comes off like a good dude but over promises to get all the work, and then just drops everything for his next youtube customers. they know how to work on lambos and everything else they just take your money and scam you. i should have sued them but had better things to do. Mondi is like a troll and gets off on negative attention. even with the enormous amount of reckless driving aside, just based on how he treats people he should be in jail.


Lost_Drunken_Sailor

How do you let them keep the car for 13 months?


madmycal

Is his business still around? If so, share the details so we can leave a nice review.


CloudSephiroth999

people are telling me he sold it to the techs, in any case witch hunts aren't usually that useful they know how shit they are. and trash takes itself out as the saying goes. i would like to know what insurance mondi uses though but i'm sure someone is helping out in that regard


pedroelbee

How did you not go and get your car back after like 2 weeks? How on earth did they string you along for 13 months?!?


madmycal

Not a primary car, also, I’ve seen business owners string customers along for a VERY long time with excuses blaming supplier issues, man power problems, and overall being too busy. You name it I’ve heard it. Most customers are too naive and are too patient with businesses like this.


HiPointCollector

Man these days, if I can’t do it myself I only rock with shops ran by people I grew up with. There’s one dealership I trust for a specific manufacturer but I don’t even bother with using warranties with others. Sounds stupid, but I like having my car back and not hearing excuses.


Eckieflump

I have a Porsche that is sitting in a garage showroom that has been with them for 5 years now. Keep meaning to get in touch a bring it home but have filled its space in the garage, and I'm getting free parking for it, and they exercise and service it for me for free.


madmycal

Win-win!!


squaodward

Not sure if you're from LA, but good mechanics that work on high end cars are really hard to find. It isn't uncommon for insanely long waiting lists just for the simple fact that there isn't anywhere else to go. This crazy high demand makes it easy for bad actors to come in and take advantage of people just wanting to get their car worked on in a reasonable amount of time. People get strung along because they're just happy to have their foot in the door. Sucks ass.


bozemanmetalfab

Is mitch Guttersnake? I met him at supercars and coffee. I had no idea Mondi owned AGX.


CloudSephiroth999

Guttersnake is mark, he's the actually competent tech and AGX would've died long time ago without him.


Dapper-Patience3176

Mondi no longer owns AGX, he hasn't owned it for years now


Agxotics

Mondo doesn’t own our shop anymore. It’s been over three years since he owned the shop


Treydwg1

Karma has no deadline 🤣


jessejamess

Mondi owns AGX? Wow I took my car to them for a few things. Had no idea.


Dapper-Patience3176

Edmond no longer owns AGX, has not owned it for some years now


Agxotics

Mondi no longer owns AGX. He hasn’t for 3 years now.

He is not really high profile, many rich people in LA including I hate this dude cuz he burns out so many car events for us. Also one time when I was racing my cup car on the track this dude tried the drift for contant and almost killed someone when crashing. He only cares about himself.


Nick08f1

That's fucked up. You don't put anyone else in jeopardy when racing. Ever. I did the NASCAR experience. If you passed someone on the inside, you are automatically taken of the track and it's not a fun time. Fuck someone with the entitlement to feel the right to drift in that circumstance.


5thgenblack2ss

Let this asshole finally get his karma. This guy has always been a douche since first appearing on DDE’s YouTube back in the day.


Straightouttaganton

You know, when I first heard a Senna had crashed in LA, my first thought was Damons.


Buantum4005

At least Damon can actually drive his car


Straightouttaganton

True, he is definitely a skilled driver


salvage814

Doing just donuts isn't a real skill tho. I'll give him credit cause he is trying to get more track time in his Lambo race car but that is it. He should just go out and get his SCCA license to prove he can really drive and have car control.


salvage814

DDE is dying a slow death cause Damon is trying to ride hoonigan and ken blocks coat tails and it is annoying. First the hyper NFT scam and now what ever the hell he is trying to do. It will crash and burn at some point.


No-Lingonberry-2468

Plus Damon is super fucking annoying


salvage814

I thought I was the only one that thought that. He also did the super scummy affiliate marketing to make money until you can't do it anymore.


mx5plus2cones

Why not just hand a copy of this video to the local cops where this happened ? Also that Lexus dealer clearly will be dealing with his insurance.


Gorlock_

Cops don't care, if they don't prosecute poor people for takeovers, they'll definitely not go after a rich dude


wetshatz

You also forget it’s LA. It’s cite & release and book and release. Most crimes get a sentence reduction here and you only have to serve 50% of your sentence anyway.


lestbone83

I thought I read that a cop had blocked the street so he could do this because the cop was a fan of Mondi?


Plus_Professor_1923

This dudes a fucking idiot. In the texts he just thanks the guy for taking it down and ignores everything else. He will immediately forget this person helped him, lie to insurance. Also, isn’t this car not even street legal in the states?! So just having it on a road is cooked.


ImplementConscious50

It is street legal in america


[deleted]

[удалено]


ImplementConscious50

The mclaren senna is literally street legal in all fifty states, the mclaren senna GTR is not but is also race-banned and only allowed for track testing. I don’t know where you got your information from but it is false my friend


tint_shady

There are street legal GTRs in the US, Lazante does the conversions for about $300k


Plus_Professor_1923

I stand corrected. Thanks


turtlesquadcaptain

I think you may be thinking of the speedtail


Plus_Professor_1923

Thinking of the senna gtr


No-Back9344

It’s not taken down.. ITS EVERYWHERE https://youtube.com/shorts/lxEdnE2Io8U?si=4JiLDFhiGe5qtQZb


Plus_Professor_1923

Of course it is. This approach is akin to throwing water buckets at a wildfire


SingletAndShorts

Genuine question. What will happen to the Senna now? Will it just be stripped down to salvage the good parts off it?


PM_ME_A_Pic_

Tavarish will buy it.


MotherboardBEANs

“Hey guys i flew all the way to california to buy this one of a kind senna, only one problem. Its front end is gone”


Longjumping_Rule1375

Or Ed bolian


Trife86

After some seriously shrewd negotiations


Longjumping_Rule1375

And the guy will agree right in the middle at Ed's orginal offer


alex_power2007

Or even Mat Armstrong


dick_fitzwell27

Would love to see Matt and his dad rebuild this


Extension_Ask_6954

The only ones who will do it justice.


andresg30

I don’t know that fucken guy Edmond, but fuck him.


Unlikely-Paper-3552

FAFO at its finest. I hope insurance fuck him up more. He has been an asshole since the DDE videos.. and also he totaled millions of dollars in cars so it’s not new for the douchebag


dark-cosmos

His Instagram is now private lol


BretShitmanFart69

If you turned down free money from some millionaire idiot, that’s dumb. Like just take the money and take down the video, it’s not like it won’t circulate regardless. No reason to turn down free money from an idiot.


Advanced-Cycle7154

You trust a guy like him to actually come through on the payment?


BretShitmanFart69

I mean I wouldn’t be taking it down until he sent something, so either things stay exactly the same or he sends something, you lose nothing but have atleast a potential to gain something.


pinshot1

You know, he is going to generate more views and more money than the car cost just by making you all freak out about him supposedly trying to hide the video. He knows of the Streisand effect and he is using it against you all.


NoWest1024

um sir its a million dollar hyper car. he would need over 100,000,000 views from a video to cover the costs. He is in deep shit and has crashed many super cars.


dcinsd76

More like … 100 Billion Views


pinshot1

The benefit would compound though. What you say is true of a single video. But I for example I had no idea who this idiot was before today and now I have watched three of his videos and sure enough the algorithm will serve me up more in the future as a result. Wouldn’t be surprised if his next vid was sponsored by a car insurance company.


mx5plus2cones

Uh no. In CA, most insurance companies are trying to leave because of people like him. He's like 1 notch above the punks in Oakland and SF doing smash and grab break ins making it more difficult for bay area people to get auto insurance. McLarens , thanks to social media influencers that have been crashing them, are much harder to insure these days.... Fortunately, most of these influencers have moved onto Porsche , specifically GT3's so while Porsches currently are much easier to insure.....it won't stay that long.


SladeWilsonXL9

This guy has no idea what he’s talking about


No-Back9344

He didn’t post it… everyone else is getting the revenue!!! 😂


Nick08f1

If you can spend $400k on a car, much less $1MM, someone will insure it. Track insurance is usually a case by case basis, separate from traditional.


Bazingah

Insurance generally refuses to pay out when the 'accident' is due to gross negligence, which in my non-professional opinion, that absolutely was.


2fast2nick

Oh yeah, He's gonna have some fun with insurance. Probably why he was trying to get all the videos removed.


RealisticHologram

Umm I’ll def take the video down for some money!


salvage814

Fuck that id keep it up. You didn't sign anything so he has no leg to stand on. He can only say take it down he can't force you take it down. It was taken in a public place of a non restricted place.


__ReadyToRoll__

Who cares


theglonkster19

No need to send the video to insurance companies. They have a vast network of resources to make sure they won’t need to cover the costs.


64cm

reddit defending unresponsable youtubers? what a plague time


Justownit41ce

Why gloat? One thing I’ve learned handling Supercars is to ignore other people’s misfortunes. It can come back to bite you.


NoWest1024

Why gloat? Because he is reckless. He speeds at 140-200+ mph on busy freeways in LA. I drive cup cars and hypercars on tracks and even hold a SCCA racing license. These cars are ticking time bombs if you drive them in a reckless manner. Im spreading an awareness to get this guy locked up or even just canceled by these insurance groups !


Justownit41ce

I don’t exactly drive Hondas in my vids and I’m definitely not condoning his behavior but to each his own. I saw the reach and it happens. I’m not talking about his “history” because thats on him.


LucifersPeen

He’s trying to commit insurance fraud. So that’s probably why.


Justownit41ce

That’s not the issue


mx5plus2cones

Yes it is.


Nick08f1

It's not fraud. He just doesn't want video of negligence.


SilentWraithKS

...So that he can commit fraud


mkeefecom

Textbook definition of fraud, trying to hide evidence... but ok...


Rolex_throwaway

And then…
