The "Transporter" will change is underpowered BMW E38 735i for a luxurious and powerful Audi A8 W12. :hahahehe:

That SO seems to be my kind of movie. I can't even begin to tell you how many times I've wanted to jump from one parking garage to another in an A8 6.0. ;)

Yeah, I think about it almost every day:rolleyes: :D

Yep, A8 W12, a BIG step up from the 735 from last movie. Well, that one actually got blown up, so no sequel for THAT one.:D

The actual cars used in the movie (probably no big surprise) were poser A8Ls. I know this because they shot a good portion of the movie in Sth Florida and they rotated between two cars. When they would damage one car, it would come to Champion Audi to be repaired and I saw these cars there on many occasions. They beat the crap out of those A8s. The A8L and W12 are basically indistinguishable unless you know what you're looking for. I guess in Europe, the W12 is the one Audi that no one de-badges. I drove the W12 and they are deceptively quick. You look at he speedo and you are doing 30% more than you think ... too bad Audi priced these out of range for most daily drivers ... I thought about the Quat and the W12 ... but kept $60K in my pocket and got 4.2 SLine

FYI ... M400 will be delivered in November with Imola Yellow - Dean let me choose a special PPG. With the SnakeBite install I'm looking at a December driver.

Well, it's not exactly like they were driving the 735s in the last movie like grandmas:hahahehe: , so NO surprise they were beating these cars.

M400, as in Noble?

Yeah Ben

Noble it is ... I'm pretty stoked, but I am also talking to the Hunting Ridge guys about their Elise Motorsport car ... I just really prefer a NA track car over a boosted car ... that said, the boost in the M400 is very controllable and based on my 1/2 day demo in OH, the car really handles even better than my Elise.

At $79.5K, I think this car is a steal and will be worth quite a bit of money one day if you don't run it into the armco.

Noble is a GREAT car for the track. Was yours finished (with drivetrain) or did you put yours in after. Did you take a peak also at Ultimas before deciding on the Noble? Very similar cars with similar performance and prices.:cheers:
