How many chaps commenting in this thread bought a Noble? So far sjc said he did, others?
Nobles have never sold in good numbers for the simple reason that Lee Noble was basically blind. He could engineer and set a car up just fine, but he had visual taste that only a mother could love. It retarded the sales of every car they made.

As someone who has owned Nobles for 18 years I so want this to succeed,but it has taken way too long to bring to market,the styling is all over the place and its a disjointed mess visually.And as it stands,the inability for the taller driver to get comfortable ( going by the drive of the prototype) is unforgivable. It’s a limited market for these as it is,let alone removing a portion of the potential owners because of their size.
Either way,this is a far better looking car to my eyes.

The M10 styling was dreadful admittedly, the M12 in it's' last form of 3R and M400 was visually to my eyes fine,hence having owned both over an 18 year unbroken period.Against todays' absolute behemoths from Ferrari,Porsche and Aston, it's styling and size I think has stood up well.The M600 I loved the concept,but it looked a bit unbalanced and was very colour sensitive and hence looked dated quite quickly. Either way, Lee Noble wasn't involved with the styling of the M600, he'd long gone by then, and obviously nor with this car either, so you can only blame him for a couple of their cars !Nobles have never sold in good numbers for the simple reason that Lee Noble was basically blind.

I bought one, still got it 13 years later, still love it and still love the looks. And judging by the reactions and comments it gets, so do lots of other people.

I have sat in the new m500, it was a little easier to get in and out than the m600 i own. Has for looks i like it but not has much has the m600. The m600 to me is the ultimate drivers car after driving all the other modern cars if you want the rewards from driving. Would i buy a m500 not sure maybe a back wards step on power. Still looking forward to a test drive
