TVR Tuscan Vs Noble M12 GTO

These, in my eyes, are ideal track cars. Which would you choose?

Both have in the region of 320bhp/ton (more than a 911 Turbo or 575 Maranello!!), low 4's to 60 (Noble 4.1s, Tuscan 4.5s) and the TVR shades the top speed battle with somewhere in the region of 170mph to the Noble's stated 165mph maximum.

I'm thinking the GTO's superior acceleration and chassis would make it the perfect track weapon but the TVR would be a lot of fun to light up the tyres in!! :D :D

Any thoughts?

This is a close one for me... I love both cars so much. Even though I think that the GTO has the advantage around the track, I think I would go with a Tuscan-S. The exterior and interior styling is so unique and breath-taking. The Noble is a pretty car too, but the Tuscan is, in my opinion, in the top 3 best looking cars in the world, ever.

I gotta go Noble! :devil:

I cant say i agree about the Tuscan... Looks frightening (in a good way) from some angles, but from others i find it looks kinda clumsy.... and the Noble's Mondeo rear lights irritate me so much, they dont look bad but just knowing they come off a Mondeo.. aghh.. its just not right :bloated:

Never heard or the Noble M12 GTO, but it looks meaner then the TVR Tuscan.

Its a sharper racing tool, thats for sure

Well ya got a valid argument with the TVR, It's got one of a kind style, hand made, and the company has a good history. But the Noble M12 GTO 3R would rip it to shreads on and off the track, not to mention TVR nolonger sells in the states as Noble dose. Also the Noble M12 GTC loss alot better than the Tuscan S much less the Chimaera.
