Default Just called 1G Racing

Just put a call into 1G Racing, regarding Canadian importation of Noble cars. Unfortunately, the person that would know the answer as to feasibility was out of the office, and next week he's at Beaver Run, participating in an exotic car shootout for the Robb Report (must be rough), where they're pitching the Noble M400 against the Pagani Zonda, Ferrari Enzo, Carrera GT, etc.

So it could be a few days until I hear back from him.

The M400 is damn good bang for the buck. Have no idea about depreciation and resale, but the specs are top notch.

The M400 is about $90k, the R12 is about $75k.

For the difference, the M400 comes with R compounds, uprated coilovers, integrated roll cage, more horsepower (upgraded turbos), better shifter, carbon fiber seats, and some other stuff.

Just FYI.
