The Noble M12 is a British mid-engine sports car created by Lee Noble. It was designed to be a lightweight, high-performance machine that prioritized driver feedback over comfort. Power comes from a twin-turbocharged Ford Duratec V6, initially producing 310 horsepower in the GTO and later 352 horsepower in the GTO-3 and GTO-3R. The car's steel space frame and fiberglass body kept weight down to around 2,400 pounds, resulting in blistering acceleration and cornering.
Collectors appreciate the M12 for its raw, analog driving experience, something that's increasingly rare. It's a true track weapon for the road, offering supercar performance for a fraction of the cost of its Italian contemporaries. Its rarity, especially in the US where they were imported as component cars, adds to its appeal. The market is small but dedicated, with buyers seeking one of the purest performance cars of the early 2000s.
Buying Tips
- Check the steel space frame carefully for any signs of accident repair or corrosion, as fixes can be complex and costly.
- The twin-turbo Ford V6 is robust, but inspect the turbochargers for oil leaks or excessive smoke. Service records are crucial.
- Examine the fiberglass body panels for stress cracks or crazing, particularly around the doors, front clamshell, and mounting points.
- In the US, most M12s were sold as component cars. Scrutinize the title and registration paperwork to ensure it can be legally registered in your state.
- Heat management can be an issue. Look for cooling system upgrades and check the condition of all hoses and the radiators.
