That's a good idea!
The original body is nice, but the ass of the car could have looked better. This one has a really nice ass, but a bit strange front. I like it alot!
One question though: What about down force? The original M12 has a a big wing, and this has nothing. How much will that change the handling?

Eh, I dunno. The headlights look like the Audi Nuvolari Concept, the side flanks resemble a Murcielago, and the rear the current M12.

Loved the styling ... but the rear end is too slow ...
It remembers me something of Lambo too , and with that colour remembering a lambo is not that difficult

...yeah, who else thinks this car just SCREAMS "AUDI LEMANS QUATTRO!!"?
i think it looks freakin awesome, partially cuz i LOVE the LeMans Quattro, and knowing Noble, it should be a really quick car.

It looks like a cross between a Bugatti Veyron and a Lamborghini
Gallardo. I am a little undecided weather or not I like it, although I
think I could eventually warm up to it, especially if they raised the
back end a little more and maybe replaced the plastic(or whatever
the black stuff is) with something the same color as the body. I
love the raked back wind shield.
As for the return of coach building, I'm not sure if it really matters to
me. I was born long after coach building had dide away so I don't
have that much of a nostalgic attachment to it. But of coarse I don't
mind it and could grow to like it a lot.

Too much crossing! the car needs to make up its mind! I especially don't like the flat rear...Something must be special about it thought, because you'd think a flat back like that would create some drag.
