With a stock power to weight ratio of 400 hp per ton, the Noble M400 is good for 0-60 mph in 3.2 seconds and an 11.4-second quarter at 120 mph—impressive stats for a stock, six-year old car for just under a hundred grand. And to further enhance the track-thrashing experience, the Ford Duratec 3.0 engine is mated to a Getrag six-speed transmission, and propels the rear wheels through an automatic torque-biasing Quaife differential. |

It needs those drag radials you see because it's boosted to a frightening 950 whp! |
