Hot Wheels Boulevard No. 110 De Tomaso Pantera Gruppo 4
Exotic, brutal and unapologetically fast, the De Tomaso Pantera was already an unlikely supercar success story. Then De Tomaso pushed further, stripping weight, flaring the bodywork and building a factory racing version aimed squarely at endurance competition. The result was the Pantera Gruppo 4 — a machine designed to devour long straights and punish rivals through sheer speed.
Debuting on the world stage at the 1972 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Gruppo 4 Pantera combined Italian design flair with raw American V8 muscle. Rare even when new, it remains one of the most compelling “what‑ifs" of early‑1970s GT racing. This Hot Wheels Boulevard release captures that sense of ambition perfectly. About the Real Car

Developed with former Ferrari engineer Mike Parkes, the Pantera Gruppo 4 was engineered for FIA Group 4 endurance racing rather than short‑format sprints. Its configuration prioritised stability and top‑end speed, making it particularly suited to events like Le Mans, the Targa Florio and the Giro d’Italia.
Only around 14–15 examples were built, making the Gruppo 4 one of the rarest Pantera ever produced. Today, it stands as a symbol of early‑1970s GT racing excess — lightweight, aggressive and powered by vast displacement at a time when engineers were still pushing mechanical limits without restraint. This Boulevard casting celebrates that bold era in full. Technical Details
