Noble's sports cars are not exactly known for their attractiveness but rather their driving ability, but this reputation may be set to change with the latest details on the 2010 M600 supercar. From the spy shots, we see that Noble is finally paying some attention to aesthetics.
Last year, Noble CEO Peter Boutwood revealed that the car would be getting a Yamaha-designed twin-turbo V8 engine sourced from Volvo, along with a carbon fiber shell, around 600hp (448kW) and a six-speed manual gearbox. Now, Auto Motor und Sport is reporting that power will be closer to 650hp (485kW). The new M600 should be capable of speeds up to and beyond 320km/h mark when it is finally released in 2010. Noble promises that despite its more traditional supercar styling, the M600 will remain a true driver’s car, with minimal gadgetry and modern driving aids.
On the styling front, the new M600 would seem to borrow some inspiration from Ferrari F430 at the back end. The shape of the boot lid, and the positioning of the taillights, tailpipes, and rear diffuser all show a bit more than an homage to Pininfarina. From the front, others have likened this car to everything from a Saleen S7 to the 2004 Chrysler ME Four-Twelve concept car.
Only 50 units of the M600 will be built each year, but there’s no word yet on pricing. And there is still no word on whether a left-hand-drive model will be built for the American market - although previous Noble models have been imported in rolling chassis form.
