The 1971 DeTomaso Pantera is a true Italian-American hybrid, combining exotic styling with proven Ford V8 performance. Designed by Ghia and sold through Lincoln-Mercury dealerships in the early 1970s, the Pantera remains one of the most distinctive and desirable classic exotics of the era. With a mid-engine layout and 5-speed ZF manual transmission with a gated shifter, it has plenty of power. It has Ghia-designed body styling with a White exterior finish and black leather interior with period-correct gauges. The seller just spent over $40,000 on a new interior. The Campagnolo wheels are awesome and it has performance tires. The Pantera offers the rare combination of European supercar design and American serviceability, helping it gain strong and growing collector interest. Early Panteras continue to rise in desirability among enthusiasts seeking a unique vintage exotic that is both engaging to drive and visually striking.
