Noble M600 Equipped with Alcon's high performance brake package the much anticipated Noble M600 recently earned bragging rights with the fourth fastest all time supercar lap on the Top Gear test track. The M600 is defined by its impressive performance. The M600 goes from 0-60mph in 3.5sec and to 100mph in just 6.8sec, with a claimed top speed of 225mph. The 2756 lbs machine comes equipped with a Yamaha-sourced 4.4-litre, twin-turbo V8 and enough stopping power in the Alcon six-piston front calipers and four-piston rears to seamlessly transition from road to race conditions. And what of the brakes? Apart from the system's lack of anti-lock, they're excellent, not just in their outright power but also for feel from high speeds. On the road a touch too much pedal effort is required at lower speeds, but the trade-off comes when you're going for it, when the feel is fantastic. "Autocar, Noble M600: British Beef"
Noble MD Peter Boutwood had warned me that I probably wouldn't like the feel of the brake pedal initially. It has very little servo action at the top of its travel and so feels a bit heavy and unresponsive. It was a bit odd at first, but now feels spot on, and like the drive the rear tires find, the amount of stopping power on offer before a front wheel finally locks, even on this poor, wet surface, is remarkable. "Barker, Evo Car Review: Noble M600" After being in development for three years the M600 has proven to be one of the top rated performance based supercars. I can't think of another supercar that is this friendly, that slips over the limit of grip and back again so effortlessly. (Barker) In the end it is its raw, brain-mangling performance that defines the M600. Not just in a straight line but also around corners, under brakes, during accelerations, everywhere and anywhere. What we are talking about is one of the fastest cars that has ever been built for use on the public road...(Autocar) Click here to view the Top Gear # 4 All Time Fastest lap in the Noble M600 driven by the inimitable Stig For more information please go to: http://noblecars.com
