This car, might be, > *

i need to get myself one of those :slight_smile:

i think you are mistaken…the Noble was on Top Gear tonight…but it was not the Noble that came within .5 seconds of the Enzo…it was that little open wheel supercharged honda powered cage of a car that came within a half second of the enzo…beating the Carrera GT…and the sport bike…

the Noble on the other hand didn’t have any times or what not on the show tonight, it was just part of the segment where each of the three hosts picked their favorite british can that is currently in production…i think the only stats they said for it is that it runs like a 3.7 or 3.9 0-60 time…and has a twin turbo 3.0 litre…and is very very light…

you confused the two cars i do believe…but it’s ok, because both are hot…but i personally would rather have a Noble…$80k for the Noble, or $55k for the little cage thingie, i forget what it’s called…i’d pay the extra and take the small loss in performance just because the Noble M12 is so pimp…

Along similar lines to the Noble, I just read today that Mosler has completed crash testing and so forth on the MT900 Photon. It’s a serious bang-for-the-buck contender that will run with the Ford GT for a fraction of the price. Up until now they have only been racing them, but now they will be street legal. :tup:

Just a couple of specs: It weighs 200 lbs less than my Miata, and uses the LS6 as its powerplant…

ā€œWe found more information in the March Issue of Car and Driver. They tested it at 3.3 seconds for 0 to 60mph! Zero to 100 mph 8.1 sec and zero to 150 mph 26.6 sec! Talk about fast!ā€

theres gotta be a typo there. 18.1 seconds to get from 100 to 150? it only took 8 seconds 0-100. what is this thing, a buick grand national?

Yeah, that wing is definately fuctional, and truth be told, I like it on that car.

Ahh yes, the Brits do it best…

Well, not really, but they have come up with some of the coolest, most unique cars the world has seen…

this car was on top gear last nite…very pimp

90NA300ZX: i believe that cage car with the typeR motor on Top Gear was called the Atom. seemed very impressive. 0-60 in 2.9 they said…unreal. me wants one

hot car… why is it in kentucky tho? shouldnt they be driving f-150’s?

yes but later in the show they had teh Noble on…

Uh, I think you’re the one getting the two cars confused…

The Atom is the cage car with the SuperCharged Civic Type R motor

nope, I was watching the show as I was typing… they drove the atom around the track and then stuck it in second place below the enzo on their magnetic list of sexy fast cars.
:c )

lol I love when he’s like ā€œI AM AN ALIENNN!!ā€

YES YES…either way the Atom and Noble were both on the show…i bet with more seat time in the Atom the STIG could beat the Enzo

MMmm…i’ll take one of those as well :smiley:

ehh i dont like the seats
