What happens when you send a Mustang to boarding school over in Italy? Well, you get the Qvale Mangusta. This rare sports car was only manufactured for a few years, and after that went away. The car was based on the Ford Mustang and it shared most of its components with the Mustang. Take one look at the interior and you’ll see right away that the Mustang influenced this sports car heavily. The Qvale Mangusta had a Ford-derived V8 engine as well which gave the lightweight design some serious horsepower.

Sports car junkies might remember the Mangusta for its polarizing design but the car never sold well. The price was much too high and there were much better competitors in this price range. The car went on in obscurity for a few years until the company faded into darkness altogether.
