a reply from Dana Hansen, the founder of Mangusta International:
"Regarding the remaining cars, I think we have to take an educated guess at this time until more owners come forward. I think that it is "safe" to say that 200 do exist, as this is very likely based on the cars I and others have knowledge of combined with the likelihood that half of the originals would still remain as driveable vehicles (not counting parts cars, wrecks, etc.) Mostly guessing, but I hope this helps somewhat."
What makes it difficult is that many Mangusta owners never drive their cars or keep them hidden and eternally parked as part of a larger collection of cars.
Also, unlike Panteras which were mass produced for the USA market, where did most Mangustas end up? Europe? I bet it's tough to account for these cars.
