Well, this car has a weird looking exterior, just like any TVR. While the front and profile look pretty nice and elegant, the rear end is horribly disproportional. It looks like in recent ten years TVR's trend was to make a magnificent fronts of their cars, but to ruin them with some hideous rear ends... I always had a dual impression of TVR: I hated them for their mismatched design elements, but I loved them for their originality. And their interiors are wonderful. And overall, were great sportcars for a true gearhead. TVR is nothing like something; it's truly unique.

I also hope for their comeback. But the question is: will it still be TVR? I hope they lack in the uniqueness of old good brand. In my dreams, I'm looking forward to the new Cerbera coming to the league of supercars like Vette Z06 and 911 GT2; that would incredible!

Dunno if its there lightweight, or Underadvertised power, but Tvrs have always been straight Monsters for there power, a T350C is as fast as a Viper GTS in acceleration, a Cerbera 4.5 RR is as fast as a Murcielago, a Sagaris as a 997.1 Turbo.(All up to certain points ofcourse)

Although, its a shame Nikoli whatever fk'd the company, But I hear thet make a comeback. I hope its true.

Yes... I'm here to know something new about my car. Only 8 produced... The correct torque should be 320 lb-ft...

If the torque remained the same then it should be 432 Nm (320 lb-ft). 432 Nm is far more beleiveable for a n/a 3.6 liter engine than 481 Nm.

The power increases with rpm, but the torque should be the same... in the last configuration, Cliff has reduced the power at 360 bhp. http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=958752

I still don't believe the 481 Nm figure. If the 395 hp Cliff Jobson's Red Rose engine has 432 Nm (320 lb-ft), why would the 375 hp version have 481 Nm? And 481 Nm would mean 133 Nm/l which seems impossible for a road legal n/a engine. The TVR Cerbera Red Rose has 122 Nm/l (550 Nm and 4.5 l), the Ferrari 458 Italia has 120 Nm/l (540 Nm and 4.5 l) and no other n/a car has more than 120 Nm/l and only very few has more than 110 Nm/l. 133 Nm/l is just too much.

@ Inline 6 rules:
I've found 356 lb-ft here: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?f=13&t=254968

The Cliff Jobson's factory 3.6 ltr red rose engine, produces 320 lb-ft torque: http://thumbsnap.com/m8iPuuHD

AND YES, ALL THE MANUAL GEARBOX SPEED SIX HAVE 5 GEARS.

The torque must be wrong! No way that a 3.6 l n/a engine produce 481 Nm! The "simple" T350 with 3.6 l produce 390 Nm, maybe this produces more, but definetly not 90 Nm more!
Is the gearbox right? Doesn't it have 6 speed?
