Damn, the Pantera is a cool looking car (according to some, it's not a sports car though, lol)

When the Group 4 Panteras began their racing career in 1972, developed by one of Britain’s greatest racer-engineers, Mike Parkes, and powered by engines built by Bud Moore, it managed to set Le Mans’ fastest lap for a car of its class during practice

  1. The De Tomaso Pantera si definitely a sports car. 2 seater, lots of power, rear engine. What in that combination spells not a sports car?

    Chevy Camaro, still not a sports car ;)

    1. that combo, and that car, is clearly a sports car, but some guy decided to send me 6 dictionaries about the meaning of the phrase sports car, and how it has to be a drop top.
