Only two Panther 6's were made between 1977-78. Sold to Saudi Arabian royalty and to someone in Canada. Built with 6 wheels that are given power by an 8.2 liter Cadillac TT engine rated at 600bhp and 4/5 mpg

Crappy pics I know but what can you do when there are only two of them in the world.

Why would you need 6 wheels?

^ I have no clue. It is said that it was the first road car that could go over 200mph but was never really proven. More traction???lol

4/5 mpg???? as in .8mpg??? as in not even a whole mile to the gallon, that's ridiculous. You have to be a real rich kid to afford that

^^^^^ I would assume it means, 4 or 5 miles, not .8, that wouldn't make too much sense.................kinda cool though

4 to 5 mpg is correct, with twin 30 gallon tanks.

Man gas back in the days was like $0.62 which is like $37.20 to fill up both tanks.

judging the pics I see why they only made 2 cars.....ain't nobody wants it..lol

but that is one crazy looking car and especially with a 8.2L engine...good lord almighty that one big ass engine. Maybe that is why they have 4 wheels in the front, to carry the extra load :rolleyes:

Only six wheeled cars that matter.

so you can be a baller?



Rather than citing a better drag coefficient, Covini claims better braking with four brake setups up front, better handling and less chance of aquaplaning due to increased contact patch, and added safety should one of the tires become deflated.
