The Qvale (pronounced kah-vah-lee) Mangusta was a sports car
manufactured by Italian car maker Qvale, based in Modena. The
Qvale Mangusta was built from 2000 to 2002. Power came from
a front-mounted 4.6 liter Ford V8 engine that which produced
305 horsepower and 314 lb-ft of torque. Power was transferred
to the rear wheels via a 5 speed manual gearbox. The braking
was handled by Brembo calipers gripping large diameter discs.
The Qvale Mangusta was designed by one of the most prolific
automotive designers of all time, Marcello Gandini. The 'Mangusta'
name was dervived from the old De Tomaso Mangusta model.
Interestingly the MG XPower SV was based on the Qvale Mangusta.

Incredible driving car! The Qvale Mangusta is the best driving
car I have ever driven and I have had many exotic cars in the
past, but none have had the handling that my Mangusta has. If
you can find one, as they are very rare, I highly recommend
buying a Qvale. Very fast and superior handling rank it as the
best I have driven!
