There are countless reasons why this car is regarded as something special. The design of the De Tomaso Mangusta is one of its most outstanding features. The exciting and angular body with its powerful Ford V8 under the winged tailgates was one of the most sought-after super sports cars of its time between 1967 and 1971. "Mangusta" is the Italian word for the mongoose - a small mammal capable of defeating poisonous cobras. The name "Mangusta" signalled that this car was to be a serious competitor to Coroll Shelby's Cobras.
