QVale Mangusta
I saw a QVale Mangusta today parked at the Vallejo garage in Chinatown today. I can't find too much info on it. Anyone know how much one of those cost?

The Qvale Mangusta was made originally under the DeTomaso name, and sports a Ford Cobra Mustang modular engine.
Looks kinda like that new Maserati coupe.
Too bad DeTomaso is going down under, they were still making panteras into the late 90's...shame!

For that money I'd get a real mustang and spend twice the price of the 'stang on mods.
-still have change left and you wouldn't have that ugly thing in the driveway.
Yeah, I said UGLY,
at least that's my take on them.

Car Info: '03 WRX wagon, faster than walkin'
The Subaru/Honda/Audi dealer in Livermore has 'em on the showroom floor. $80K and I think they look beautiful, especially next to an Audi or a Suabru.
But IIRC it is the old Mustang Cobra engine and frame - DOHC 4.6 liter V8, not the supercharged one. I think the last year they made them was 2001/2002 model year....They had several new/unused ones at the Subaru Livermore dealer.
