The De Tomaso Pantera is a mid-engine sports car produced by Italian automobile manufacturer De Tomaso from 1971 to 1992. Italian for "Panther", the Pantera was the automaker's most popular model, with over 7,000 manufactured over its twenty-year production run. More than three quarters were sold by American Lincoln-Mercury dealers from 1972 to 1975. The first 1971 Pantera models were powered by a 5.8 L (351 cu in) Ford Cleveland V8 engine having a power output of 330 hp. The high torque provided by the Ford engine reduced the need for excessive gear changing at low speeds.

The first 75 cars were simply European imports and are known for their "push-button" door handles and hand-built Carrozzeria Vignale bodies. A total of 1,007 cars reached the United States that year.

The bespoke supercar had an estimated original price around $3.5m to over $4m USD. A Sabre was offered at Mecum in 2020 but apparently didn't change hands.

1934 Hispano Suiza J12 Vanvooren Cabriolet - $224k

1 of 120 Hispano Suiza J12s built between 1931 and 1938. Winner of the 2024 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance Alec Ulmann Trophy for its elegant Vanvooren Cabriolet coachwork. Offered without reserve following serious fire damage in 2024.

Weeks after its second in class and trophy winning-performance, tragedy struck. While in an enclosed trailer a fire engulfed the Vanvooren Cabriolet.

Hispano Suiza J12 Cabriolet chassis number CH14019 was commissioned by industrialist Baron Jean Empain of Belgium, one of the world's wealthiest men during the Great Depression.

Originally a cabriolet bodied by Fernandez et Darrin, the chassis received its Vanvooren coachwork three years later.

Empain used the J12 for his travels between Europe and Africa. It was later seized by the Axis powers during World War II.

A full concours restoration began in 1998. The car was at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in 2013 and 2024, when it received the Alec Ulmann Trophy as “the car that best embodies the combination of excellence in performance and elegance in design."
