Anyone familiar with the history of Alejandro DeTomaso knows that he is considered a great industrialist. His world is not limited to the manufacture of exotic sportscars and racing cars. Other projects include motorcycles (Guzzi), small passenger cars (Innocenti) automotive design (Ghia studios), boutiques, watches and real estate holdings to name a few. When the Qvale Group split up with DeTomaso Modena S.p.A., there was concern that this would be the last time we would hear of the Isis. Instead, the company is back with a vengeance. Roaring back.

Important to note is that DeTomaso Modena S.p.A. is the manufacturer for a client who has retained the firm to construct the car. The value of the contract is rumored to be over 200 million dollars (USD). The projected number of vehicles built will help establish DeTomaso Modena S.p.A. as a leading automotive builder in Italy.  More importantly, a strategic alliance has been struck between DeTomaso Modena S.p.A. and the firms involved that will also provide a source for the next engines for the new Vallelunga and 2002 Pantera.  The name of the manufacturer will be announced in the near future and a lot of people will be pleasantly surprised. This writer is very pleased.
