Yeah, I just remember KE70s with questionable styling being all over northern Finland once upon a time, hence the joke, haha.
Im amazed by the fact you’ve never seen one before ESPECIALLY being in SoCal…im in San Diego. I see them every once in a while. Theres actually one that resides on the next block over from me broken down in a driveway. I think whats even more rare than the Allante is the Buick Riatta. You definitely spotted a nice example of one though.

Qvale Mangusta, an early 2000’s Italian sports car powered by a Ford 4.6l V8. Pretty rare car, less than 300 were built.

Wow!!! Less than 300??? I am very lucky to have seen that indeed.
Me and a helper were doing a job at a building in that parking lot and initially when we pulled up that spot was empty. I came out to the van to get something some time later and seen this beautiful black convertible sitting next to the van. I didnt know what it was but I vaguely remember seeimg it in a magazine but i wasnt sure. To my suprise it turned out to be the owner of the business we were working for that day, it was HIS car!! One of his toys apparently, must be NICE

The Mangusta’s platform was used as the basis for the MG XPower SV, a short-lived flagship sports car that died out when MG Rover collapsed in 2005. It would not be the first (or last) time an unsuccessful car re-entered production, though.
As for the XPower SV, it didn’t have the build quality, looks, or cachet of its rivals, but at least it had the pace and dynamics to be competitive:

I dont know, if it wasnt for the Fiat esque backside I would be drooling over that
I have some interesting stuff I have seen on different vintage car shows:
Toyota 2000GT
Cool little Saab

Renault Dauphine with itself as a trailer
Cool little Abarth

I excuse the picture quality with the fact that I took them around 2000…
…and I let the pictures speak for themselves.
