Smile Noble M12 GTO

Hello everyone.

I stumbled across this site by accident, so apologies for gatecrashing! I don't own a Cobra but do own an M12.

I agree with the comments about the headlight cluster made earlier in the thread and the new M12 GTO3R does look a lot more refined. The "ricer" look comment though is a little unfounded, granted on the road it does look a bit "fast and the furious" or "Max Powered" as we say in the UK, but on the track the wing comes into its own, because the performance and handling are phoenominal. Also remember that this is a GTO, 'O' for Omologato, it's a road going race car, not a shopping trolley come race car lookalike!

Honestly though, if you've never driven one, talk to Dean Rosen and get a test drive, they are extremely well built, as you will know from the Superformance Cobras, and they are very very quick. I've been on the track a few times now and nothing short of a Caterham R500, Radical SR3 or single seaters touch it.

The M12 is without a doubt the best supercar bargain around at the minute.

Cheers
Anthony
