What was Bill's car in Kill Bill 2?

Detomaso Magusta

 

Mangusta (spelling). Mongoose in Italian IIRC.

I know someone with a Mangusta for sale if anyone is really interested. I don't know what he is asking etc, just that he wants a bbi boxer and wants to sell his goose.

 

Here!

I would guess he's still looking for one

Some one was selling a Mangusta in the other Italian forum around a month ago.

The mangusta had a reputation for being a bit twitchy if I remember right.
Very nice car though.

I seem to recall reading that the transmission hangs down so low that bumps in the road can rip it out. At least I THINK it was a Mangusta.

In ‘Kill Bill’ the character Bill was the snake charmer, his hit girls were the snakes, as in Black mamba, Copperhead etc. The Mongoose kills snakes, in fact I seem to remember it is the cobra’s chief enemy. Having the Snake Charmer with a parked snake killer at the edge of the frame was pure Tarantino.

Incidentally DeTomasso gave it the name because he wanted to ‘kill’ the Shelby Cobra.
