Evaluation

This is a car that we have watched for many years from a distance. The proud owner took great pride in this car and placed no limits on time or money to create this superb car. We were envious.
Definitely a cut above the rest. If you are looking for a black car, try to find better!
Sumptuous leather interior, trimmed with rich looking wood.
Solid performer that makes all the right sounds.
Many options not listed.
We are pleased to be able to offer this car for sale to our customers. Setting a high standard at Concours for the DeTomaso marque is one of our goals. We invite you to consider this elegant car.
