[DeTomaso] Car show trivia

[LS]

In Montreal, things are different. 

Not only has this city hosted an F1 race for decades, it  knows cars.

I pulled up in the Pantera outside our hotel the first night for F1 weekend. A young guy walks over and starts examining the car and especially the bodywork.

I had my "It's a Detomaso..." line cued up when...

He then calmly says..."we see Panteras in Montreal but we don't often see a widebody model" in a thick French accent.

Impressive indeed!

That's part of what makes it interesting.

I also had the following:

Guy:  Wow!  I know what this is.
Me:   Really?  Most people think it's a Ferrari or a Lamborghini.

Guy:  You mean it isn't?
Me:   ???

And of course, it is fun to talk to someone that really knows what it is -
like the guy that I bumped into at BBORR that used to own a Pantera.  My
Pantera, in fact.  Small world.
