I'm thinking......no

Terminator swapped Focus

Holy shit.... wonder if that thing is even drivable.... how bad ass! :twisted:

wonder if that thing is even drivable?

Handling, we figured, would be another story. Given the forward weight bias and the fact that the focus chassis was never designed to deal with this kind of power, torque or sheer mass, we thought it unlikely the Focus would be an impressive handler. We were wrong. Once we got over the intimidation of driving it quickly, it zipped through our slalom at 72 mph--about 1 mph slower than the last EVO VIII we tested. Then it blew us away by pulling 1.02g around our skidpad.

Looks like it is, complete with A/C. :thumbup:

This car is just one bad mother, cut and dry.

Top Gear review vid

The British car builder, Noble, has finally released official images and details of its latest model, complete with a Volvo-based twin-turbo V8 producing 650 horsepower. Pricing is expected to be around £200,000, more than twice that of previous models, and customers waiting on the now-extinct M14 and M15 can request for their deposits to be returned if they don't wish to purchase the new car.

As the high price tag suggests, the M600 brings much more to the table than past Noble models. The car is constructed from a stainless steel tub, tube skeleton and chassis, and carbon fiber body panels for a curb weight of just 2810 lbs. The 4.4L V8 (a first for Noble) has been fitted with twin Garrett turbochargers, and the driver can change between three output settings - 450, 550, or 650 horsepower - with max torque output of 618 lb-ft. Performance will be more than up to supercar standards, with 60 mph reachable in 3.0 seconds flat, 100 mph in 6.5 seconds, and a top speed of 225 mph.

As with past models, Noble aimed to make the M600 a purist driver's car. The traction control system can be completely deactivated, and there is no ESP system or anti-lock brakes. Shifting will be done old school with a 6-speed manual gearbox and no paddle shifters will be offered. The M600 will make its public debut at the Goodwood Revival on September 19-21.

Interesting to note that they are using JRZs. I knew they were "good" but didnt know how good. If the shops that build those use those, lends me to beleive they have done the testing that it works...
