^ I expect it to look like a TVR, not a bit like a TVR This one just misses a bit of smoothness the other TVR have.

Should choose your words more careful...

Isn't "typhoon" a bit too common to be trademarked?

This is promising for TVR. I think they should go all out to build this thing and get street-cred.

I thought NATO owned the rights to the name. Or does it go to the Soviet Navy?

I'm not sure the Soviets called it the Typhoon. I believe Typhoon was the name NATO gave the sub.

Yeah, just what financially strapped Trevor needs, good thionking.

The last Uber TVR, a V12 850 monster weighing 1050kg was banned by then Trev boss Peter Wheeler on the grounds that it was 'too fast'.

I've driven, Tuscan, T350c, and Sagaris and loved them, but easily the three scariest cars I've ever touched. Great.

Spot on!

The Typhoon class submarine is a type of nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine deployed by the Soviet Navy in the 1980s. With a maximum displacement of 48,000 tonnes, Typhoons are the largest class of submarine ever built. The NATO reporting name stems from the use of the word "typhoon" (тайфун) by Leonid Brezhnev in a 1974 speech while describing a new type of nuclear ballistic missile submarine. The Typhoon class was developed under Project 941 as the Russian Akula class (Акула), meaning shark. It is sometimes confused with other submarines, as Akula is the name NATO uses to designate the Russian Project 971 Shchooka-B (Щука-Б) class attack submarines.

That's because I didn't change them. I think I made my point clear, no need for arguiing on this.

LMAO! GM goons (hopefully those who visited RC) go to TVR owner's house and never come back. "Vee put thiem on ice. Thei needed to relax."
