Could be interesting. The history of DeTomaso begins a new chapter.

The car looks HOT, though the front end needs some attention. The headlamp treatment look like something off of one of the versions of the Meyer's Manx.

Rossignol and DeTomaso :cool now that is some bitchin DNA. i used to own some Rossignol skis. the car looks good but the front end looks too long.

they had better give that car a ton of horsepower......

engine choice determines if this is going to be a great car or a cr@p one.

the front end is very retro to the original... will wait until I see it in person. I liked the Devon better in person that I did originally in photos. Think that car is sexy now. :thumbsup

Unfortunately, not the same people. The Rossignol Ski Company was founded by a Frenchman, Abel Rossignol, about 100 years ago -

whereas Gian Mario Rossignolo is of Italian descent. There is probably a very distant relationship between them from the past.
