But a few more months and the world will finally get to see the unveiling the of so-called supercar during the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show this September. Reports from Auto Bild, a leading German automobile magazine, the reborn Pantera Supercar will roll out with a V-8 supercharged engine with 600 horsepower from American carmaker General Motors Inc.

De Tomaso Automobili SpA, an Italian carmaker, has created a good reputation with for its two-seater models. While no specific details of the Pantera Supercar have been released by De Tomaso, rumors arise that the reborn supercar will get an aluminum body. Speculations also favor that the curb weight of the Pantera will most likely be about 1,200 kilograms. Recently, the Pantera Supercar has been spotted doing a full test drive.
There were rumors that the Pantera Supercar was set to make its first appearance during the 2011 LA Auto Show but the recent news just confirmed that the media will catch its first glimpse on September 13th during the International Frankfurt Motor Show. The viewing for the general public will take place on the 15th.
While we wait for the Pantera to roll out into showrooms, we can always salivate for De Tomaso’s Deuville model which has been built in the 1970s. This vintage 5-seater beauty is packed with a turbocharged 2.8-liter V6 engine with 300 ponies and 295 lb.ft. Sometime in the next year, De Tomaso will also include a limousine model in its product line up.
