I feel like the kid who build this car had a good sense of humor.

"There really are no words to describe"

Yep. What kind of dealer tries to sell this thing, seriously?

Thayer, I want to hear some stupid buyer stories - how does anyone get in a situation like that?

[Mike]

omg i can't stop laughing. how in the hell?

kbb on it is 9.
isn't msrp when NEW far less than she's asking?

[CaptainHenreh]

omg i can't stop laughing. how in the hell?

It's easy. She was upside down on her trade and the dealer rolled the deficit into the new loan. I feel sorry for her.

[WRXtranceformed]

18% APR? ouch!!!!

[Evan]

how does anyone get in a situation like that?

my name is Stacey.

[WRXtranceformed]

If she's moving to London, who cares. I'd leave it parked in my driveway with the keys in it. It either gets stolen or collections comes and picks it up. Her credit already sucks, what's another ding :lol:

The DeTomaso Guarà was the last project of company founder and namesake, Alejandro de Tomaso. First shown at the Geneva Motor Show in 1993, the Guarà could be had as a closed-roof coupe or open-top barchetta. A more practical canvas-roof Spider was eventually added as well, but only five were ever made. The Guarà was based on the 1991 Maserati Barchetta Stradale concept and was built from 1993 through 2004, when the struggling Italian automaker went into liquidation.

During its production run, 10 to 12 Barchettas and about 50 Coup├®s were built, along with the handful of Spiders. The early cars, including all of the Spiders, were powered by a BMW 4.0-liter V8 putting out a modest 272 horsepower. Later cars, and all, um, two of the cars that have somehow found their way into America are powered by a 320-hp version of the Ford 4.6-liter V8 from the Mustang Cobra. The Guar├á was made of fiberglass, Kevlar and other composites on an aluminum backbone, making it fairly light. Performance was decent with a 0-60 dash of about five seconds flat and a top speed quoted between 168 and 171 miles per hour for this 2,500-pound mid-engined sportscar.

The car's racecar-like pushrod suspension made it a bit of a handful to drive on city streets, but its handling limits were pretty high by all accounts. This particular car is in Woodland Hills, California, and is painted a perfect Modenese yellow. It has just 10,000 miles on the clock and is being offered at the princely sum of $100,000. That might seem like a lot of coin for a fairly anonymous exotic with a Mustang engine, but considering its rarity and its association with the name DeTomaso, it could be a fun addition to someone's collection. Are you listening Jay?

Eh.


Not really digging the mish-mash of RX7 front end, C5 greenhouse, MR2-esque rear, and Cobra guts. Just give me one of those cars, not all of them at the same time.

I figured you would have been jizzing all over that with the Ford powerplant :wink:

There are WAY better niche cars to jizz over with Ford powerplants. :lol:

For example, the Panoz Esperante:

The Esperante is just a watered-down Roadster. Not really a fan.




At the end of the day they're all just trying to emulate this Ôåô .............and falling short of the mark.

:lol: thats got to be one of the dumbest automotive comparisons Ive ever seen

Style/character = not really

NVH = yes :lol: sorry Matt.

I'd still take one of those over a Panoz or the yellow blob any day.
