Today the Italian sports car by De Tomaso that tried to kill Shelby cobras...
The car? The De Tomaso Mangusta
This model was designed by already known Giorgetto Giugiaro. The name Mangusta stands for Mongoose - the cobra hunter... The idea of De Tomaso while producing this car was to replace the Shelby Cobra of Carroll Shelby for racing programs.
Powered by the Shelby 5.0L V8 306 HP engine to compete... but Cobras were faster...
Did you know?
There were 401 mangustas released in the nature between 1967 and 1971, but in 2018 there are only 250 left. It becomes of rare species.
The price In good condition valued between 35 and 40 BTC at the current rate BTC/USD.
Enjoy ;)
