Did you know
Only 284 Mangusta units were built from 2000 to 2002, from which only 30-50 were branded as De Tomaso.
The De Tomaso Mangusta, produced from 2000 to 2002, was a bold revival of a legendary nameplate, aiming squarely at enthusiasts who craved Italian flair mixed with American muscle. Born from the ashes of De Tomaso's storied past, this Mangusta was an ambitious attempt to re-enter a fiercely competitive sports car market, leveraging a partnership with Qvale Automotive Group.
Underneath its distinctive, if polarizing, styling lay a robust chassis and a Ford-sourced 4.6-liter V8 engine, delivering a spirited 320 horsepower. Its standout feature, the innovative 'Rototop' roof, allowed drivers to switch effortlessly between coupe, targa, and convertible configurations—a neat party trick that genuinely impressed, even if it occasionally compromised structural rigidity.
Driving the Mangusta was an engaging, if somewhat raw, experience. The car offered sharp steering and commendable grip, though its handling could become twitchy at the limit—characteristics that endeared it to some drivers while unnerving others. Despite its short-lived production run, with fewer than 300 units built, the Mangusta left a distinct impression, blending Italian eccentricity with American practicality in a way few cars dared.
