I drove a '73 DeTomaso Pantera. It was 2 tone black and red. That car was awesome. When you were at a red light, you'd smell gasoline, and the brakes weren't that great, but it was FUN.

Wow a lot of haters on Michelle, she got a Great Coach, a clear track and some very nice cars to run through their paces. She is Pro Car, Pro Gun and is from Texas (Born and raised) and a Skydiver to boot. What's there not to love? She takes great care of herself for a soon to be 40 year old. Happy B Day ! July 12, Your doing Great Michelle ! Love your voice, Don't let yourself go.

Farmerman just because you own a car doesn’t mean you have to know everything there fucking is to know about it! That’s where the fucking snob part of my previous comment comes in! Do you know everything about everything you own?! Also, this wasn’t a get to know everything there is to know about the car segment. It was about looking at it, have a quick chat and then drive it segment instead! Big difference! Also, it’s a known fact that Michelle is into cars and to give her shit for “talking like one of the boys” is bullshit! From that guy’s point of view she should probably be in the kitchen doing the dishes! And to the other idiot who complained about her voice when she did the overdub, she was most definitely given a script and instructions on how to do it. That’s the way it is in the show business. It’s the American thing to do! And the fact that you failed to realize what I was getting at tells me all about your comprehension skills!

I hate pop up headlights my 300zx always had one slower than the other but Pantera I think had them operate on one rod to prevent that. The 1971 had 330 hp but smog emission crap killed the hp later.

@@Archangel0804 ik they ment at Donnington event in Aug of 84. Both bands was on constant touring. And they ended up in LA a week early bc of Michael's ankle injury. They arrived in LA the night before the accident. Respect (to you) since the Dirt movie... kids that wasnt even born in the 90s believe the movie thus how they discovered both bands and quote from the movie. That why I phrased the original comment the way i did.

I owned a ‘71 and an early ‘72 and I can honestly say for the most part these clowns no very little about the DeTomaso Pantera . Will not run when raining. Very bad design as the distributor got wet. My Ferrari 328 GTSi never had that problem. Other than not to good to drive in the rain, they are definitely not temperamental at all. Obviously Elvis was most likely on drugs to shoot at the dash. That’s what killed the idiot in the first place.
