@AudiMan2011 .. My post already contains that link via clicking the image.
It will have a Ford 5.0L V8 tuned by Cosworth.Is there a rotary in that thing? Haven't seen a low front like that, since the FD.
Living with the foreknowledge that your car's electrical system is doomed to rot out is part of the classic British sportscar owning experience though. That and the fun games of "spot the Ford-sourced switchgear" and "where's that damn squeaking coming from?"As far as I know, the previous TVR's weren't that reliable. I hope this is not the case anymore.
Great, now I can't un-see that.Looks like a European take on the MX-5 from that view to be honest.
Sorry dude, it was just too similar for me not to make the comparison. I don't want to see that every time I look at it any more than you but sadly I do. I rather it not be anything like the Miata, with the power it will produce for the size it should be insane, but looking like it does so far is a bit of downer for me.Great, now I can't un-see that.
Hopefully, nowhere near the case, though. The Fiat based off the current Miata got hounded by reviews for being nowhere as good from what I read.
I had a slight SLS-vibe from the front, so my first impression wasn't far off yours in regards to be underwhelming.Sorry dude, it was just too similar for me not to make the comparison.

Does look like an SLS headlight and Aston grill and 720S brake duct.... oh,... and C7 fender to bonnet/hood design.I had a slight SLS-vibe from the front, so my first impression wasn't far off yours in regards to be underwhelming.

Edit: If they're going to sell the car for 100k+ anyway, just remake the TVR on the left with modern gear. Done.
You're talking about an Alfa Romeo. British cars don't need electrics, just a hammer from a shed.Living with the foreknowledge that your car's electrical system is doomed to rot out is part of the classic British sportscar owning experience though.
