Doesn't this look just kinda like a Celica coupe?

It's a De Tomaso Longchamp. I'd never seen one before. Came up in a search for something else. I love it!

It's a De Tomaso Longchamp

I actually tried looking at the filename of the pic after i asked and figured it out.

Its a neat looking car!

It actually looks a lot like something else designed by de tomaso too...

I've seen a stock Longchamp at a car show a few years ago.

The stance and wheels on the OP car is pretty badass. That's a lot of rubber on the rear.

FWIW, the Longchamp is WAY bigger than a Celica, but the resemblance is uncanny in the profile.

I have a driver's side tail light assembly for sale, if anyone here needs one. I should also fit your Pantera, Merak or Bora.

Are you building a Pantera from scratch or something, Woody?

i keep seeing the love child of an x1/9 and a biturbo.

Okay. Seriously. I need one of these. Damn. Aside from the fact that there are about 11 of them on Earth and I don't have anywhere near that kind of money, it's a perfect plan.

I really need this.

Hell, even the name is cool. It's so cool I'd be tempted to change my last name to Longchamp. "Hi, Peter Longchamp, how do you do?" 8)

I have no idea why I just shot water across my office! Probably because those words could be used to describe my dad pretty well.

The perfect porn name, Peter Longchamp.
