Never seen one of these!

So today I was just cruising and noticed this car.. At first it looked like a super tuned out car, but way different. So I pulled in and I was like, WTF?? So of course I had to google it haha. Turns out it's actually seems like a pretty bad ass little car.. Anyone know anything about them?? I thought it was pretty neat!

Only thing I know about Nobles are that they are (were) a British car company and had a sportscar in laet 90's or early 2000's named somethign like M12 or N12. I haven't actually seen one on the streets or heard mcuh about them since that time.

Wow! Nobles are badass.
You don't see them much at all in the US.

I've had a little work with Nobles in the past. They're extremely fun cars, but not extremely well known (unless you watch Top Gear of course). But in the states, a very limited amount are here, so when the unsuspecting see them, they all think they're kit cars.

Great cars though, absolutely love them.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_M400

Noble no longer manufactures the M400. The exclusive dealer for Noble in the US, 1G Racing in Ohio, USA (also known as Rossion), has obtained the production rights to the M400 from Noble Automotive, and has released an updated version named Rossion Q1.

Hmm.. Explains why I saw one since I live in Ohio and now I get the license plate haha.
