I like this car alot! It has a huge wow factor for me! I hope it can take out any Mclaren, as TVR needs to be better known.

the speed 12 will be faster than the tuscan (by almsot 45 mph) and faster than the McLaren (couldnt tell you by how much yet though!)

another thing also with the McLaren F1 being £634500 and the Speed 12 being £188000 thats £447000 difference!!!! (and still half the price of a Jag XJ220)

all this with out the aid off Turbo chargers too (puts any Porsche to shame!)

only to true they can but when you're paying that sort of cash you dont want ot have to go and pay some more because you want to change things it should be perfect..

plus we're missing the point... the speed 12 is much better!!!!

But if it did not go well... couldn't that mean the end of TVR?? You have to be careful when you venture into the unknown like this.. They need to see a market first.
