Hey just wondering what you guys though of the new Noble M14 Supercar. I like the looks and hey, 400hp ain't bad. Especially from a Ford 3.0-liter V6.

Front-Side

I'm going to have to agree. I like the exterior mostly, but now that I took a closer look, I think that interior is awful. I do think it's interesting though, that they used a Ford V6 in a car that they consider a "Supercar". Haven't seen too many V6 Supercars.

Yeah, but the thing weighs the same as a motorbike! has two Garrett turbo's and a 0-60 time of 3.5seconds!

That is a nippy little car.......

No worries, I just love stating the facts about that engine. The same block that is in the Mazda 6!

Porsche 959, and 911 Turbos, Ferrari Dino, Jaguar XJ220 . . to name a few.

EDIT:

I understand the Porsches are Flat 6's.

XJ220 always blew my mind, that a 200+ mph car was running with a V6 heh.

I've always liked the Nobles, The m12 is hot, And yes the interior seems a but cheap. I wonder what they could do with a Nissan VG30DEtt and a few turbo upgrades, 600hp easy.

From the front it looks like an Enzo with the nose cut off.
