Default Any Pantera Owners?

I always like to look (dreaming usually) for odd things, and....the mid 80's Pantera GT5S's sure look damn cool! I assume since they have Ford V8 power they could be fairly reliable.

Seems it costs about $55k+ for a decent used one with under 20k miles though.

I guess I will have to actually go work at some point if i want a different car.

Scot - S2000 is hardly even driven now that i tote the kids around.

It seems like Viper Brad had two of them. I also seem to remember that the two of you were tight!

who was Viper Brad? I only recall getting into a flaming battle with some guy in Tennessee who was trying to sell his S2000 for more than he paid, although he also claimed to have at least 8 other cars (something like...."got the titles in my hand")?

was that viper brad?

I used to have one when I was younger, My parents made me sell it because it was way to fast. I've regretted it ever since. Funny thing was I drove past one today and started dreaming about it. I think I'm gonna go looking for one soon.

cg - he seemed a little arrogant.....telling everyone about how he had the titles, etc...... Actually a smart business person would probably rather have a loan on those cars at 8% and been making 30% in the market (this is going on 2 years since that the discussion came up)......

I am glad he was a decent guy. I always think it is funny how people with too much money are always trying to make money on stuff like cars..... O well... It is america, so........

That was the guy. He had all those other cars and he got his price for the S2000. I got to know him and he was a very nice guy.
