Sexy & mean car pic thread.

How? Porsches look all the same and they all suck. At least the Noble has some class and doesnt look like it was put through a photocopier.

It looks like it was built in a shed. Oh wait, it actually was.

I don't care how fast it goes, it's not pretty. It's not even mean, it looks like those cars you'd find in games without proper licensing (ie GTA, Saints Row, the likes), aka it's generic.

Learned recently that this car came & went while I was on vacation through DFW. The value this car retains is absolutely nuts; $700K.

Y DID I NOT CHECK GOOGLE?!

Group B was initially a very successful concept, with many manufacturers joining the premier World Rally Championship, and increased spectator numbers. But the cost of competing quickly rose, and the performance of the cars proved too much, resulting in a series of fatal crashes. As a consequence Group B was cancelled at the end of 1986 and Group A regulations became the standard for all cars until the advent of World Rally Cars in 1997. « Wikipedia

Glad to help, you asked why so I thought, why not give you the answer since I was unsure if you were serious at all.

That's sexy.

Local 911, owner uses it in the Targa Newfoundland race. Looks amazing in person.

 

[deadcell96]

[Luminis]

What car is that?

A Honda HSV-010, a Super GT (GT500) race car.

 

[Eric.]

Honda HSV-010, was the planned NSX replacement but it only became a SuperGT racer.

"Oh, you're 911 GT3 has a top speed of 193mph, not bad not bad. But my sky blue Noble has a top speed of 225mph. Well good day to you sir."

The Noble is a great car and may well do 225mph, but it's still only 0.2 faster than the GT3RS 4.0 round Bedford (in the hands of Evo Magazine)... not much of an gap for something that costs £60K more than the GT3RS 4.0 and has >100bhp advantage.

And in 10 years time the Noble will be worth squat, whilst the GT3RS 4.0 will be worth a lot if the current market is anything to go by (they are currently changing hands for £190k-£230k vs a list of £140k).

Oh, and as always... some proper car porn in this thread 👍

 

[Luminis]

Given the Noble's price, shouldn't the GT2 RS be the competitor of choice? Faster around Bedford, too...

Anyways...

I took the liberty of doctoring this photo a little...

A noble will also never, ever sound this good:

 

[AudiPro]

Yea but a Porsche will never sound THIS good:

 

[Luminis]

You said 'sound'?

 

[AudiPro]

Allow me sir if you may.

 

[Luminis]

Allow me sir if you may.

 

[Carlos]

The best sounding engine.

There is an automotive sound thread guys, just fyi.

The MC12 is such a beauty, shame they stopped racing them.
