>Post rare cars people should know about
TVR Cerbera speed 12, 7 litre V12
Why should anybody know about this? Is my life suddenly better off because you posted that? Also your car industry is dead, give it a rest, Britain.
RCR Superlite SL-C
>>15352873
Because it's a rare car and this is a car forum? It's nothing about being British you air headed yank, take a trip outside of your country
>>15352839
Is that the car the dude who ran the company took it home and decided it was to dangerous for common folk?
>>15352839
>What body-style do you want?

>>15352924
Yes.

Shame it was never produced
>>15352839
Those numbers aren't that impressive anymore desu.
>>15353043
What is impressive? 6 litre V8? Nah don't think so
>>15353043
yeah
now we have Hondas that weigh less while making more power
>>15352839
>tfw 7.0 V8 w/ 2-speed auto
>>15353018
>>15352839
only know about these because of gran tourismo 3
This is largely unknown.
The DC Avanti,
>mid-engined - 2L 4cyl turbocharged Renault engine
>RWD
>6 speed dual clutch transmission
This car is made by the same company that makes replicas of the AK-47 rifle in China. And just as lethal, probably.
>>15353208
>7.0 V8 w/ 2-speed auto
pretty common with american cars made in the 50-60s
>>15353208
I actually kinda want that.
Check out their most recent model.

>>15353279
Looks like the long lost retarded inbred mutated brother of Daewoo Matiz and Geo Metro which got buttfucked a 200 times.
>>15353283
ZIL is fucking based

Every time. Spout off stupid shit then go full damage control mode when called on it
>>15353345
go to a different thread please
>>15352839
>dodge viper with a bidykit
We get it, you played gran turismo and watched top gear
>>15352839
>Cerbera speed 12
Why should people know about it?
>>15353468
Then stop shitting up every other thread with HURR DURR MURRIKANS

Who cares about some kitcar?

this is sexy as hell.
>>15352909
>Because it's a rare car
That's not enough reason to make a car notable. By that logic some project piece that Bubba slapped together in his garage is just as important.
Remember when this thing was the shit?
>>15353957
It was more of a modern GT40 than the 2005 GT was.

>this is the future you could have had
>>15353940
Wiki it then
the toyobaru isn't rare at all, unless you compare it to the best selling roadster sports car, the miata, which also happens to be faster
>>15353940
A rare car made by an actual manufacture is almost always notable because they normally lose money on it.
>>15353320
I prefer the zoil and the zziui
>>15353957
I had the poster hanging on my wall it was silver tho. Really aggressive looking super car.
>>15353343
it's like a studebaker lark had a one night stand with a microbus.
>>15354454
The toyobaru is also a glorified skid rig that uses the same sized wheels as a prius specifically so that it goes sideways at 20km/h with no effort.
put a wider set of tyres on one and it would destroy an mx-5
>>15354700
>muh mawds
thats cute
>>15353343
nice corvair
>>15354707
>damage control
wouldnt even have to make it unfair, you could put miata rims on the toyobaru and it would flog the miata, i don't even like either car they are both BTFO by an LJ Torana
>>15354763
Then why did you post an LC?
Rare gulf wing door Benz Roadster, only 55 made of the SEC
>>15354770
same shit different smell, its probably not even an LC.
next will you tell me about how its not original because its missing 4 of the original engine bolts?
>>15354793
>trying to display you know what you're talking about
>demonstrate that you don't
Are you the same twat claiming 1969 cars are superior, posting an HG last week?
>it's probably not even an LC
You probably have no idea what's involved with changing LC and LJ front sheetmetal.
>>15354763
>>15354770
Chuckled heartily. Silly cunt.
>Twin turbo Vee-eiht from early 90s

100 of these were made by shoving a 302 into shitboxes

Looks good. That height, those wheels, that paint, that bumper. Nice.

My God, the English can't into car designs. It's like a Dodge Viper had an autistic child with some ugly Lotus. I need to bleach my eyes.

>he doesn't like TVRs
confirmed for shit taste
TVR Griffith 400
>>15355205
>he actually likes the TVR
Confirmed for being a britcuck. You guys have such shitty designs, m80. Not a single good looking car has come out of Bongistan. Not. One. At least Italy and France can make a decent looking car, and they're all literal fags. Sucks to be you, Muhammad.
>>15355138
I find it crazy how it's made by a parts retailer
>>15354038
What's that one British car that was the same. had a tank engine or something.
>>15354038
this is now crazy soviet era cars thread

>I'm going to take a jab and call you out

Just post your pictures and be on with it, your using 4chan. This isn't a happy agreeable forum now is it? Just relax, soak in some curry, piss weather and economic collapse and post pics of cars mate.

There is trolling, there is idiocy and then there's you.
>>15356107
>>15353241
Absolutely horrendous looking. I'm sure there's about a thousand reasons that nobody has heard of it..it was a huge flop and poorly built/owned/operated.
>Shocking
>>15354480
Do you seriously think that someone who built some contraption in their garage is doing it at no cost to himself?
>>15352905
>>15353241
Hello CarThrottle :)
>implying not many people are aware of the Speed 12
This car has been a total beast in GT2, GT3 and GT4. Anyone who ever touched a Playstation is aware of it.
>>15356398
The good old days of having a garage housing not one dozen, but 3 dozen ready to sell when I got drunk and needed to dump every overnight part on any car.
Red Rock Valley, man.
>>15354438
I did. In the first paragraph the wiki article stated that it was so shitty to drive that TVR decided to kill it off before it could make production.
>>15353320
I never liked a boxy design this much before.
>>15353241
This car's Indian built. A friend of mine actually got to drive this and he told that it had a "bland driving feel."
>India tried
>>15356830
You clearly didn't read it all then, maybe try that first. You make it too easy have some self respect
Noble is currently producing a new car called the Noble M600. It has a Volvo twin-turbocharged V8 engine (producing 650 bhp (485 kW; 659 PS)), a carbon fibre body shell, and a 6-speed gear box, made by Yamaha.
>>15355521
>you are fucking retarded
im not a britcuck you dumb americuck
>>15358922
I like them, they built raw ass sportscars.
>>15353468
.....and here I thought the drill wheels on the Shagohod were too retarded to be based on real life.
>>15355521
All those implications.

There are RC cars that have them. The rc cars are amphibious. I had one as a kid but we couldn't find the battery for it anywhere so we had to return it and I never got to use it
>>15359497
I think I actually saw one of these the other day in Canada. Thought it was some sort of fucked up 928 or 944.
>>15356107
L-lewd
>>15358892
>You clearly didn't read it all then
I did, but I thought the first paragraph said it all. I thought I was being nice by choosing to not elaborate on how unremarkable the car was, but since you are basically asking me to give a a book report on the wiki article:
The car was built with the intention to go racing in GT1 but it was both too slow and unreliable that they simply dropped out of high-level international competition after only a few races instead of continually embarrassing themselves. When testing the engine for the roadcar, the shaft for the dynamometer broke and since this was apparently the only dyno in all of Europe of the time, TVR instead chose to test the engine in the most half-assed, ghetto-rigged way possible. They also chose to use a steel engine block because they thought it was a good idea to have an block that's just as heavy as iron, but more expensive for no reason. After making all the lofty claims in performance that they were never able to back up, even the TVR owner claimed that the car was too much of a rolling turd to sell to people and returned customer deposits.

fuck just saw
>>15359548
>>15353018
Looks a lot happier in real life
>>15353018
I can see so many P1 similarities.
>>15358922
Its too expensive with such very low number of features. Jeremy Claekson reviewed it.
>>15359497
That's sexy af
>>15363018
both even have nissan engines
really makes you think
I'll never get to have one...
>>15359497
And now their value skyrocketed to the 100k's
Also Gurgel's been valuing a lot. Specially the rarest ones. (Itaipu, Carajas etc...)
>>15353883
it run out of gearing at 240mph and bounced off the limiter. its a sohc v12, effectivly 2 400hp inline sixes on a single crank. made by a true enthusiast company who didn't belive in any nanny controlls like abs, traction controll, airbags, ect. shit most didnt even have power steering.
the road cars are alittle more subtle, still loud as fuck in both ways tho
>>15358922
i love Nobles
no traction control
no automatic
no ABS
no pwr assists
it's a driver's car unlike these trashy AWD DCT cars these days
>>15363055
An average buyer who looks for tech and shit won't probably buy that. Still Noble is a running company.
>>15356103
calm the fuck down now is that a fucking train?
How bout a Dodge Omni/charger with a pickup bed. Rare enough?
Chaparral's fan car.

>>15356103
It's funny I was just looking at shit on the mzkt-79221. Soviets could solve any problem with enough diesel fuel, iron, and vodka.
What it looks like when an aircraft maker coachbuilds a car in the '20s.
>>15352924
It's also the engine that grenaded a 1000hp dyno
>>15366047
more like the dyno they used was a derelict piece of shit anyway.
