Anyone ever seen these before? I thought it was a kit car apparently its a company out of South Africa. Snapped these in the parking lot at work today. Sorry for the quality it was on my Iphone.

Noble autos are awesome track toys.

Kind of looks like an MR2 with some kind of dress-up kit.

I've never heard of this before.

I think top gear reviewed some of them.

if I remember right they are track day monsters.

They're insanely fast, but built for the track. No creature comforts or driver aids

Here is the site for them, Noble Automotive | Welcome to Noble

I m going to talk to the guy about it on Monday. We get all kinds of cars around here being a base town.

Yeah after looking at the interior I could tell that's one hell of a DD.I think his DD is a Audi A8.

Noble's a nice British track car. Seen a couple on some car shows. When you import them to the US, I think they're only partially assembled, no? A few people have already beat me to the punch and put up links...

yeah there is actually a blue one here in town i see it time to time

That's correct, and how they get around the various US vehicle laws required by mass-produced vehicles.

Their pretty sweet. I'd equate them to a lotus elise with more power.

Zaggeron · 03-03-2011, 08:40 PM

In the US they are technically kit cars for exactly the reasons listed above. The Rossion is the same way -- it is based on the Noble platform
