Will be interesting to see if this one gets off the ground. This is the car the new DeTomaso should build.

I absolutely agree.
Looks fantastic. So much better than the Lambo based Audi R-8.
It also carries some attributes of the AMX, which was designed with the Pantera as inspiration. The AMX however had fatal front end lift at speed. I don't know how this design does at speed but I would hope they test it at speed to assure the front does not lift like the AMX.
That's a 21st century Pantera, holy shit.
It will have lift a the front, but a Pantera does not need to go 200 mph. Just keep it down at 170 mph and it'll be fine.
We don't need no $1 Million 300 mph supercar limited to 20 cars, we need a $150k Pantera giving 400 bhp out of the box.
De Tomaso owners do the rest aftermarket. De Tomaso is kind of a kit car, they deliver some beta version and you fix the issues in your garage.
Just like Tesla. The only diff is, you struggle with the "fix it in your garage" with a Tesla.

It does look like the AMX.
I always thought we needed a bit more contour up front. This car looks great. The flow, the blue, the legacy,just great...
Still not sure how the air flows through the radiator and through the hood. Seems like it was designed by someone who does not work on or with real cars.
They will most probably charge 750k onwards for that car as they did with the Mercedes G where there were only mods on the body and this is a totally new body based on a Lambo chassis.
Sadly not another De Tomaso as it is supposed to be.

Real Nice
But i am not so chore about this Company Ares design.
Something dont fits on there HomePage.
If you look at the building "showroom" on there frontpage it is empty and if you use google Earth with the adress for this Company.
It shows a small building/garage behind this big empty showroom?
