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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDebuting 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout the Real Car\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1972 De Tomaso Pantera Gruppo 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEngine:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.8L Ford Cleveland V8 (mid‑mounted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 370 kW (race specification)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrivetrain:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rear‑wheel drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/strong\u003e Factory endurance racer, flared fibreglass guards, lightweight chassis, long‑legged high‑speed setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eGroup 4 Racing \u0026amp; Extreme Rarity\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeveloped 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly around 14–15 examples were built, making the Gruppo 4 one of the rarest Pantera variants 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Age:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3+ years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAssortment:\u003c\/strong\u003e GJT68‑956Y – Hot Wheels Boulevard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e HRT75\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear of Release:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHot Wheels Premium cars are not compatible with Hot Wheels track playsets.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hot Wheels Premium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48345988530425,"sku":"GJT68-956Y : HRT75","price":9.79,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/6747\/3984\/files\/HRT75_01.webp?v=1777782374","url":"https:\/\/www.toys101.co.nz\/products\/hot-wheels-boulevard-no-110-de-tomaso-pantera-gruppo-4","provider":"Toys101","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
