Don't know if this has already been posted, but I see Top Gear (this month) reckons that pound for pound, a Cerbera is pretty much one of the best sports cars you can buy. Which is nice.

No, its pound for pound as in a metaphor for "good value".

I would have expected that to be honest. Not much that can compeate, and those that can are at least double in cost. With the exception of the noble M12 and maybe a few less standard cars.

To me the two cars are quite different, and probably aimed at different people and different markets.

Myself - I've never got on with the concept of a Cerbera - don't get me wrong, it's a lovely car, just that for my set of criteria it didn't fit, whereas the Noble was bang on.

I suspect many others will feel the same?

I agree and understand what your saying, but in tems of 0-60, max speed 0-100 and cost, they are both very similar, are they not? I could be totally wrong, but thats what i thought.

Joust - so what are you doing hanging out in the cerbera forum then? I dont like the idea of certain marques or models so I dont bother with their forums.
