ive seen the noble around before on the 33… A lot of people rent out car storage in their garages in NB… its pretty odd, cuz most of the garages in the neighbor hood are crap… but i saw an yellow 355 a couple years ago being put away in a garage on frontenac while walking the dog
Nobles are powered by a TT Ford taurus duratec motor
wat?
thats why it cost so much, ok now i unserstand
my bad, should read:
At least the lotus is a complete car, the noble is a kit car… not that it’s a big deal, but i’d feel like a chump saying i had a 90,000 dollar kit car.
saw a noble on delaware downtown the other day, dark grayish color
Which has an interior apparently deigned only with a ruler, ugh i never really realized how bad it was
K1 attack FTMFW!!!
Sorry… lotus Exige >>> over a kit car based on an accord
what the fuck is that mess.
UGH they are so hott… I heard about these 4-5yrs ago, in a Teckademics vid they interviewed a salesman who did random doughnuts

you can also get them with the Audi 4.2 V8 FSI w/ 450HP at 7900rpm =)

Its not based on accord wtf are you talking about? Because an H22 is 1 of the engine options its an RWD accord?
and its still a shitty kit car based on the CB7 accord… ya, that is a great platform to start from… “Hey lets use to most pain in the ass platform to work on, which one has pressed on rotors… ahh that’s right, a crackord…”
psst… do some research into them, they use suspension components from a CB7
You don’t buy an M12 for it’s interior:
If I was going to spend 90k on a car (not likely any time soon) I’d certainly consider it. Or better yet, the M400.
Put it all together, and you get a 2500-pound car with 425 horsepower that rips to 60 mph in 3.3 seconds, matching the time of the last Ferrari Enzo we tested [C/D, July 2003]. The acceleration is disorienting and terrifying at first, like when you wake from the dream where you’re falling and you let out an embarrassing yelp.
Reading that who here wouldn’t want to drive one? 
M15 FTW
We have build a dream car. Never doubt that a small group of thoughtfull, commited citizens can change the world. indeed, it is the only thingthat ever has.”
did speedped make their website for them?
LOOK AT ME… hey u sure it was an M12? below is an M400
Factory Five GTM… if i ever decide to take on a project car, it would be to build one of these…

Lightning in a World of Thunder
In a world where thundering Supercars routinely crest 3500 lbs, the track-tested and tuned 2350 lb. GTM is a refreshing return to sportscar fundamentals. Factory Five lightning strikes with a hp/wt ratio similar to that of a Daytona Prototype. With a stock LS7 powerplant, the car maintains a 4.8 lbs per hp ratio. Connected to the pavement via huge 335 series rear tires, it enjoys acceleration numbers better than almost any production vehicle on the road today.
The GTM is faster 0-60 mph than a Ferrari Enzo, a Porsche GT, a Saleen Twin Turbo S7, a Ford GT, and a Lamborghini Mucielago*! The GTM even beats out a Champ car to 60 mph! **
0-60 in 3.0 seconds!
0-100 in 6.6 seconds!
¼ mile in 11.0 seconds @ 132 mph!
But a Supercar isn’t just defined by acceleration. The GTM’s ultra-stout, ultra light space frame chassis and deep breathing LS Series V-8 power combine with modern suspension and brake components to deliver Supercar performance in braking and roadholding as well.
The GTM stops and turns just as fiercely or moreso than the rest of the Supercar gang. With stock Corvette brakes, the GTM slows to a stop from 70 mph in only 166 feet, outbraking the mighty $157,000 Ford GT. That was STOCK Corvette brakes, not $30,000 carbon/ceramic.
Want roadholding? The GTM turns faster than it falls thru the air. Car and Driver measured a phenomenal 1.05 lateral G on street DOT tires. To put that in context, the Ferrari Enzo is the only car that matches it!
The car is light and aerodynamic, with excellent weight distribution and precise race-car handling/braking derived from the Chevrolet Corvette C-5. The car uses potent GM LS series engine power and Corvette suspension/brakes with Koni brand coil-over shocks and a Porsche 911 transaxle to get the job done.

I like the exige much more than the noble it just looks so much meaner and aggressive thats just my opinion.
I’ll take 425hp and 2500lbs over “looks meaner” any day.
