I'd take the Noble, they're such kick ass cars and would probably be alot more fun round a track.

[UCR]

If anyone has more figures on the AMV8 please let me know.

[clutch-monkey]

i'd take the aston, more stylish and comfortable, i'd be able to use it more often.

AMV8

I dont think it is a sequential, the options boxes I have been given are manual or paddle shift manual.

These specs are not carved in stone, but have not been denied (link to them was by Aston Aust e-mail update)

Power: 370bhp
0-100: 4.9sec
Top speed: 280km/h
Wheelbase: 2.6m
Overall length: 4.4m
Width: 1.9m

There is also a spy footage of it a the 'Ring, will try and find the link. Times were 3secs faster than a GT3.

Aston. The Noble is a fine handling car, but I wouldn't spend £75k on one when it is still basically a £40k M12 underneath.

[stratos]

me thake the noble

[:Exige:]

At first Id go for the Noble .. that was until I saw the video of the AMV8 testing around the 'ring. Its possible the most awesome sounding thing on the planet.

I'd also take the AMV8. There are only a few cars on the planet that can mess with the AM sound setup.

Cyco your getting an amv8? kool. How much are you planning to spend on it. have yu got any other interesting cars

[aNOBLEman]

I'd definitely have to get the Noble for its very good peformance and its very good handling. It would be a blast to drive on a race track.

[CdocZ]

anyone got some good vids of either? id like to hear some engine sounds of one or both

[CHEESE-TACULAR]

id take the noble 60% for the track use and 40 for the crowd of people that would form around me whenever i parked it.

[CdocZ]

youd probably get just as many people looking around if you had an aston. probably more with the aston, cause people know who they are

Yeah, but the AM looks a helluva lot more subtle than the supercar like noble's shape.
