At last, some factory information.

I would love to see the back of the M600 with a spoiler on it. Perhaps an M12 type.

That is going to be one hell of a machine! I do believe their going about it the right way and hopefully it turns out to be a success, hopefully in a couple of years i can afford one!

Much of the journey was completed with a Porsche Carrera GT for comparative purposes and also
included a day with the Ferrari Enzo. The data collected is vital to the reliability and further development of the M600. The car performed faultlessly throughout with no engine breakdowns.

The engine was in a 'detuned' state with a limited 500 bhp, but even in this 'detuned' guise we were delighted by the performance, achieving a top speed of 202 mph and a 0-100mph out accelerating the Porsche GT. Track testing was assessed against a Ford GT, Ferrari F50 and the Carrera GT. In the company of such illustrious and stiff competition the M600 was a revelation.

Cool!

So does the following quote mean we've another three years of waiting...
"The M600 PII is still very much in prototype form and does not accurately represent the production intent."

Nah, the lawyers disclaimer.

Anyone notice in the last pic, the wing mirrors, looks like noble might have copied the CGT's. Deffo a step up from Rover 25's

I think they should start testing it around the Top Gear track to refine it against the other supercar times.

Sorry, but those some of those photos are cr4p! I think they should do it all again with me there

Dear All,
This is beginning to look like its all taking shape rather nicely. Lovely looks, stunning performance and obviously some stateside input to the testing side of things. I wonder how many of the Ford GT, Porsche and other comparator cars are USA Noble owners?

My only concern is testing the car without the production engine. An extra 150 bhp is quite a difference in terms of feel, handling, reliability and opportunity to get out of shape.
Regards

Good isn't it.

From what understand the car will have 3 modes c.400bhp 500bhp and the full banana 630.

Also having spoken with Peter B at length I can't imagine them not testing with the full power engine.

Roll on more news.

Ah, so they've found a use for that dummy switch on the dash at last

Isn't octane ratings measured differently in the US compared to here? I believe their 91 is the same as our 96 ron.

Yes, they use the average of the RON and MON combined, where we only show actual RON at the pumps.

Looking very impressive. All I need now is an update on when they'll be available and price so I can work out how many nights a week I need to stay in to save up
