Thursday afternoon kind of question...

Anyone know why the T350 never got a god/beast like name and just ended up with dull numbers?

Heresy sir!

I think they just ran out of cool names beginning with 'T'. Let's face it, T350 sounds far better than Talulah!laugh

They were also developing T400, T440 and T440R models by then so it might represent a bit of a shift in their naming convention? Lest we also forget that the Sagaris was originally mooted as a T350R (if memory serves).

i understood the T350 was originally a concept for a TVR race series that never took off....hence it didnt need a macho name to boost sales.....not that it needs one. Its the best TVR ever made in my opinion.
In a few years time T350's will be selling for more than the sags which IMO are quite ugly and very overpriced for what they are....looks wise they are already dating. The T350 is stunning from every angle, its a timeless classic beautiful car.
