Seven years after orders opened and five months after the first unit was delivered, the De Tomaso P72<\/strong> continues to turn heads. Already spotted in Germany<\/a> then in Monaco<\/a>, the spectacular Italian supercar has just made an appearance on the streets of Zurich, Switzerland. It was a particularly rare sighting, captured by two car spotters, given that production of this model is limited to just 72 units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A De Tomaso P72 that certainly turns heads in Zurich<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It was on the streets of Zurich that the De Tomaso P72<\/a> was recently spotted. The car spotter mare_cars<\/a> was lucky enough to film it, while shaun.cars<\/a> was able to take several photographs of this extraordinary car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the photos, the supercar seems almost too wide for the narrow cobblestone streets of the Swiss town. With its midnight blue body, accents of rose gold, and lines inspired by 1960s race car prototypes, it\u2019s hard to mistake it for a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. The doors that open upward, the circular taillights, and the side mirrors mounted on long stems further enhance its spectacular appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what makes this appearance particularly interesting is that it is not a prototype. This is indeed the first P72 intended for a customer<\/strong>, unveiled just five months ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A seven-year wait for the first shipment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To understand the significance of this unveiling, we need to go back to 2019. That year, De Tomaso unveiled the P72 at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, promising to produce 72 units of a supercar that was as exclusive as it was original.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
