It's a totally different beast than the CGT. I have to imagine (only because I didn't drive it on the street, track only) that the M600 (in it's test form, remember that this was just a "test mule" and will be a bit different from the final production form) would be more 'usable' on the street. The CGT has such a tiny little flywheel and clutch that it constantly wants to stall from static position. Red lights and mountainous states would most likely be a PITA with the CGT (I've only driven them on track). The power delivery is very linear, even with the turbos and hp turned full (final production model will have selective hp output control) there was never a time where the M600 felt uncontrolled.
I drove both of them, back to back on track, for eight days straight (yes, all day for eight days straight). I was working with the company principals and engineers on setting up tire and braking packages. You'd be amazed at the performance and engineering that is going into the Noble. They've got their 'stuff' together and they will definitely hit the market with a big bang. Power to weight will be astounding and reliability and build quality will also amaze most for this level of a super/exotic.
Remember guys, this isn't the "kit car" of the past. Completely new ideas, principles, and standards for quality and performance.

Sometimes it's easy to doubt and try to make people look bad, again... no offense taken.

It is great to have you here but you will notice over time that this forum has an extremely low tolerance for BS and lying. Therefore the occasional troll that comes in here making outlandish claims like "I am 18 and need advice from you guys on what color Enzo I should buy?" are typically called out and dealt with.
I look forward to more of your posts and I am extremely jealous of what you do for a living. If you have any more stories and pics you can share about cars you have been involved with developing/tweaking please share them with everyone by starting some new threads.
Cheers and welcome to the Team!!!!!
P.S. Why should we not "get you started on the ZR1 or Z06?"

That's for sure. The cars being produced now are first class. You absolutely must see these cars in person to fully appreciate their quality.

I was referring to the NEW Noble M600, but you're correct. The 'new' Rs are great build quality as well.
