The car looks a parts-bin special and held together by tape, but it"s unmistakably the GTB caught track testing earlier by our spy photographers.
Here"s a supercar that"s...
Here"s a supercar that"s rising up against the competition - it"s the Fenix! The work of Leicestershire-based sports car maker, Lee Noble, it"s the first model to come from his new company, Fenix Automotive.
The
as-yet-unnamed supercar features a basic design that is
reminiscent of the Noble M600 and M12. However, the Fenix gets aggressive and angular lines, similar
to those of the fighter jet-inspired Lamborghini Reventón.
The M12 was hugely successful, but we needed to move the game on in
terms of design, said Noble. The new cars styling owes nothing to
what Ive done before and has quite literally been a clean sheet
exercise from the start. Its edgy, with powerful lines, and
aerodynamically will be in another league to any of my previous cars.
Under
the bonnet is a choice of two Corvette engines, giving 480bhp and
638bhp. The latter is lifted from the supercharged ZR1, and with a kerbweight of 1,200kg, is said to
propel the Fenix from 0-100mph in just under seven seconds on its way to a 200mph top speed.
Our first prototype is now in build and development will start in
around one months time, said Noble. Well be hot-weather testing the
first prototype on the mountain roads around Port Elizabeth, South
Africa, where the car will be manufactured. But Im itching to get the
car back to the UK where I can set it up on roads I know well.
Prices will be confirmed when sales start in 2011.Ҡ
