[DeTomaso] Another Italian/American car

[Charles McCall]

I'm confused as to the Italian portion. There is an inference or two to
Italy - "in the finest Italian tradition" but I can't find why they even say
that? Where does the "Italy" thing enter the equation?

This thing is such a joke.   It's simply a rebodied Corvette.   If they 
just advertised it as such, that would be fine.   But they are pretending
that 
this is some sort of Italian/American hybrid like a De Tomaso, Iso, 
Bizzarrini etc.   Those cars were purebred Italian designs that just
happened to be 
equipped with American engines.   This thing is a 100% American car, built 
in California, probably designed by Californians, and hasn't been within 
10,000 miles of Italy.
