You've honestly never heard of the DeTomaso Pantera!? Do a search, you'll find plenty of info...

[TVR IS KING]

:eek: I screwed up the link. On that link, go to the left of the page that says "Cars" and click on "Tomorrow". You get a few pics of a sexy concept. Cant find it, Ill screenshot.

Yeah I discovered the Pantera in Classic Adelaide, and its the one I have the pic of.
Oh screw it, here is the pic. I love it.
No, the pic is 'invalid'.
EDIT:
Fixed it.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think that Concept was to be the "next" Pantera.

DeTomaso is old and have been out of the scene for a long time. They had quite a few problems and many were sold through Lincoln dealerships.

Lincoln died too. I know that much.
Looks like a nice car. The back especially.

[fpv_gtho]

Lincoln died too.

No they didnt

Uh, that's not at all possible since the Navigator is getting a bigger model next year with the Explorer.

[clutch-monkey]

maybe he means oldsmobile? :confused:

[TVR IS KING]

No they didnt
Yeah. I know. I dont know what I was thinking.
^^^Oldsmobile may be what I had on my mind...
I really dont like those cheap American passenger car brands...theyre all so boring. Saturn and Lincoln..etc.
But yeah.

[fpv_gtho]

Saturn and Lincoln especially are both marketed as being relatively luxurious

[clutch-monkey]

i thought saturn was a cheap econobox brand? anyway i heard they chew through oil like a rotary :eek:

[TVR IS KING]

^^ So did I.

They've greatly improved over the years, the Vue taking in numerous excellent write-ups, and the Ion Redline has been praised for being one hell of a small sports car.

Im pretty sure they remarket alot of Opels stuff in NA

[F1_Master]

They do. For instance, the new Saturn Sky roadster which is known as the Opel GT in Europe, right?

[TVR IS KING]

Correct.

[drakkie]

Correct.

Not :) The Opel GT uses the smae Kappa (?) platform as that saturn. However a lot of things are different. It is not simply rebadged,but rebuilt :p

[NuclearCrap]

Lincoln did die, he was shot in the back of his head. Lol. :D

I recall seeing a Mangusta and Pantera on the streets, they were beautiful. :) But I'm gonna miss them. :(

[TVR IS KING]

Correct to the best of my knowledge. On basic levels they are the same car...Right?

Right??????
^^^Ooh deliberate misinterpretation of words for comical purposes! For the win!
Almost as good as puns ;):D:D:D:D
Ive just discovered the Mangusta. Oooh its nice. And in Classic Adelaide, there was the black Pantera...drifting...
