When did you first find out this car existed? Have you ever seen one in person?

[@NotAMiata43]

10 minutes ago when this video got released

[@mravocadoman2904]

I think I've heard the name, otherwise I found out about it 12 minutes ago when uploaded lol. Never seen one in person.

[@somyajitnath6303]

I've been searching ur channel for this car since I saw ur cover pic...Now i know why i couldn't find it anywhere lol

[@CavesAreIrrelevant]

You can sense that car wants to drive alot faster than the speed limit allows. It just yearns to open up.

[@zzzgarage2704]

Pantera went the similar path, Italian design and American powertrain

[@xX_Gravity_Xx]

Pantera GTS is one if my alltime favorites.

[@zzzgarage2704]

@@xX_Gravity_Xx Personally I favor Pantera 90 Si a bit more

You should see the Iso Grifo, design by Bizzarrini at Iso Rivolta, with a V8 Chevy

[@pattybraps]

8:12 you were literally shaking-1.2 million dollars worth of car, i would be too

[@TedwardDrives]

haha I had to leave it in. It was such a long day. I had shot all of the B roll and while Dom (passenger) shot photos, I was moving the car around for him and hiding low inside the car to stay out of the shot while the engine was running. It was 90 degrees and that exhaust runs HOT. I looked like a wet cat after this shoot

[@Maxi12121313]

2:25 I like that even youtube acknowledges this sound as music in the captions

[@codemy666]

Never did i know that there's actually a car that puts the 250 series Ferrari and the Miura together.... this is like a late christmas gift

[@thehumanoid6543]

more like the 250 and an ac cobra

[@somebloke2238]

Possibly the most beautiful car of all time

[@RyanRoadReaper]

That car looks like something some celebrity would drive back in the 60s/70s

[@triviace]

Sounds so velvety smooth,intoxicating!

[@mustpaike]

This is one of the cars that makes you ask "why isn't there a kit car of it available yet?" Because there totally should be. A Chevy V8, a Tremec manual gearbox, lots of dials and the rest should be fiberglass shaped like a mixture between a classic Italian car and a C2 Stingray/71' Riviera.

[@bimmerfan729]

What a drive! Crazy opportunity. Funny thing, Goodwood just had a small post about this car on their Instagram around Christmas time, so good timing on the video!

[@BOTYgaming]

Damn, this video is quite different from your others with such an elaborate intro and outro! I love it. It feels like a special episode, which it totally is too!

[@lukathegarlic]

Awesome pure driving video. More of that, please.

[@willemduijff9449]

And probably the coolest car you've driven (at least for me)!

[@streetroyalty1]

I was watching Herbie The Love Bug and researching what other race cars were in the movie. There’s two of these in the background of the racing scenes! Awesome vid!

[@michaelwhite9375]

Very well produced. I could see overview/POV videos like this becoming standard fare in 7-figure car sales.

[@TedwardDrives]

We’ve had pretty good success doing it on all the bring a trailer sales. I hope to see that standard haha

[@jpkatz1435]

Like the old Victory By Design, with NO music, I find adding music ONLY detracts and deminishes the pure experience and impact of the car it self.

[@richhubert2804]

Million dollar car... explains why there wasn't any commentary on the drive because concentration was of utmost importance! Cool car, never knew about it until today.

[@TedwardDrives]

Haha I wish I could have talked. The pov footage wasn’t meant for my channel since it was more of a “proof it runs” for potential buyers. Hopefully I’ll get to do another shoot with it and do my normal thing

[@nickfritz3120]

Just found your channel after the cannonball review. Love the content and your videography. Would enjoy meeting I live in westboro

[@justinmcroberts4633]

Someone had an unfinished replica of this back in 2010 or 2011 at SEMA. I took a pic of it (still have it) and it’s just striking in person. Even though the car at SEMA was a replica, it was absolutely stunning. Thanks for putting up a video of this thing. I’ve always wondered about it.

[@Extinct_1]

How could one dislike such a video? Only positive vibes and a dope ass car... some people must be sad.

[@TedwardDrives]

It’s wild how grumpy and shitty people can be. But part of this KZbin game is publishing content you believe in regardless of the sad sacks who dislike it 😂

[@mutated__donkey5840]

I'd love it if you got your hands on the Chiron press car that daddy Doug got to drive.

[@danieleregoli812]

Wow....this is one rare gem Ted! I used to have a model as a child of the GT Strada! And designed by Giotto Bizzarrini, a fellow Tuscan, who also designed the timeless Iso Grifo!

[@jehl1963]

The car sooo cool that needed to be posted twice! In the words of King Crimson: "I repeat myself when I'm under stress! I repeat myself when I'm under stress!"

[@lakai958]

my first and only experience with one of these, was seeing one being worked on at KTR European Motorsports over in Ayer, MA. I had no clue what it was, and it was totally living in the shadow of the 250 GTO they had there

[@BIMMERZEITT]

Veryyyy nice. I can see you were sitting on this video for a while! Thanks for sharing.

[@dylanedits2308]

It looks kinds like a miura and a 250 GTO had a baby and I absolutely love it

[@Krisisawake]

This car should have come with an italian 12 cylinders. Incredible car. The interior is gorgeous !

[@TedwardDrives]

Would have been incredible with a high revving v12! But these Chevy engines were light, short, and very reliable for racing. The torque was colossal at the time

[@malcolmnicholls2893]

Jensen Interceptor was quicker than contemporary Aston Martin on account of the Chrysler engine, a 383 initially I believe. ( I read that in a quality magazine) I'd have a U S production motor anytime. (Brit) Did some models of this have rivets on show? A big steering wheel would be nice.

[@AJuchum]

My opportunity to get one of these went by because in 1972 I couldn’t afford $5500!!!!! Although at 24 years old the insurance would have been a million dollars.
