Nope, its 9.5 seconds 0 to 100 mph, not 0-60.

I really don't understand why so many have said "thats not fast". For its price it is very quick. Sure its not as quick as an M400 or GTO3R but that is to be expected - it has the same engine and is a bigger more luxurious car - of course its not going to be as quick as a stripped out lightweight.

What noble are trying to do with this car is address the main criticisms of the m12 - ie its cramped, cheap looking interior and lack of quality materials and finishes - not just make a quicker car.. :roll:
