What in the world is a 1964 Pontiac Banshee? Well, then-GM executive John DeLorean designed it to compete against the Ford Mustang. Unfortunately, it never made it to production.

GM nixed the vehicle as they felt it would hurt Corvette sales. Its styling cues, though, certainly influenced future cars, such as the 1968 Chevrolet Corvette.

A GM employee convinced the company to sell him the car. When the owner passed away in 2006, the Banshee hit the market. This is the only 1964 Pontiac Banshee coupe in the world, with a sweeping hood and short-deck styling.

Find this 1964 Pontiac Banshee for sale from Napoli Classics, with an asking price of $1,200,000.
