I never really liked the edge on the hood, or is that an air intake? The lower air intake should have been presented with a number plate to see how it finally should have looked like.

Back to the Griffith Speed Six:

What was the difference between the 1996 and 1997 model? Only the body style on the front?

Off topic again but I headed off on an internet nostalgia trip and was reminded of this….

Apologies for the awful pic screen snapped out a video, but how god does the original design of Tuscan front end look…

That very car is at Powers at the moment being ressurected

I have a TVR postcard of it somewhere, I think you are referring to the Speed 8. Great looking car. Similar softer lines to the 400SE.



Thank you…,That was it!!!

The name seems quite obvious now!

Everyone was going nuts on Griffith Speed 6 on the show stand but I actually preferred the speed 8
I think the Speed 8 was shown when the Griffith was originally shown (90 or 91) and quietly dropped as everyone was raving about the Griffith
