Description
Italian flair, American power. There are cars that make your chest hair stand on end and instantly make you want to grow a moustache as soon as you set eyes on them. The De Tomaso Pantera GTS is one of them.
For those who think life is a calm and subtle affair, bad news: this car is a rolling masterpiece of chaos and charm. Passion, power and Italian flair – everything mixes together spectacularly.
Born in Modena, with a beating heart borrowed from Detroit, the Pantera GTS combines a fiery Italian soul with a 5. 8-litre Ford V8 roaring. It’s not “the best of both worlds,” but rather a marriage between two madmen with a box of matches that light a barbecue together — and end up serving the best steak you’ve ever tasted.
It isn’t an ordinary supercar, but a car that dictates its own rules rather than follows them. Its performance would make even the latest models pale, while its design is so sharp you could cut an avocado with it.
Our Pantera GTS, delivered in 1981, is an icon kept in careful condition. It is a rare German-first-delivery example – which is unusual, most Panteras having been exported to the United States to sow chaos there. This example has always been in good hands, with only four owners over 40 years.
In the last eight years, it has lived within a private collection of ultra-high-end exotic sports cars, where it has been meticulously maintained. From the engine to the paint, everything is in excellent condition.
Dare you tame it? Come and discover it — but be warned, it will not let you leave empty-handed.
