The Mangusta replaced the Vallelunga model, on which its chassis was based.[2] The word "mangusta" is Italian for "mongoose", an animal that can kill cobras. It was rumored that the car was so named because De Tomaso had some talks with Carroll Shelby to replace the Shelby Cobra with a racing car to be built in Italy by the Argentine-born De Tomaso ("De Tomaso Sport 5000" a.k.a. "De Tomaso P70"),[3] but no deal was signed since Shelby became involved in the Ford GT40 racing program. Nevertheless, Alejandro de Tomaso and Carroll Shelby were friends[citation needed] and business is business, so it is also rumored that the first handful of engines for the Mangusta may have come from Shelby. The Mangusta was replaced by the much cheaper-to-build De Tomaso Pantera in 1971.
401 Mangustas were built, about 150 of the European version, the remainder were the North American version. The initial cars are claimed to have a more powerful Ford HiPo 289 cu. in. engine; the later cars all had Ford 302 engines. With the 1970 model USA destined cars were produced with 2 headlamp pop-up, an estimated 50 cars were produced in this configuration. One car was built with a Chevrolet engine for General Motors-Vice President, Bill Mitchell.[4] There are reported to be approximately 250 of the 401 cars left in existence, according to the three available registries.

I Despise Elon Musk, But Type S Could've Been One of My ‘“TypeS” Of Cars - IMRAN™
Like most men, I’ve loved certain types of cars, ever since I was a little boy growling up in Karachi, Pakistan. The obvious ones like Ferrari, Alfa Romeo, etc. and even Ford Motor Company Mustang, and the Chevrolet Corvette of that era, along with almost every Mercedes-Benz AG ever made were on the list.
Over the decades a couple of names dropped off my list, eg the Mustang got too boxy, the Alfa Romeo brand was almost dead, while Ferrari just kept making more and more designs I love. Porsche AG and BMW Group rarely interested me, although I did buy a BMW Z3 which had been seen in the James Bind movie that year. Also, harsh as they may seem to me sometimes, at least Lamborghini’s shapes do interest me.
Along the way the Acura NSX made a brief appearance on my list but good as the brand is supposed to be, Acura vehicles never excited me. At least until now. Even though it’s just an ad, with just the perfect angle and colors, this Acura Type S immediately excited me as one of my TypeS of cars, pun intended. Too bad I would not spend a dime to enrich the world's fascistshitiest man, Elon megalomaniac Musk.
I have not walked around or sat inside one of these so I’m not sure how my impression translates in the real world. Car lovers will also notice some look-alike elements from other brands and super cars. But for now, I loved this picture, sparse as it is on details that truly matter. What do you think ?

It was perhaps a little ironic that that this Italian made car was parked on a cobblestone street that was in all probability built by the Roman's 2000 years ago.
Maybe it is true, somethings just never change.
