yes, they have done it well, the Noble is a very exciting car.
but neither is imported and sold in this country, at least as a drive away car, due i believe to our federal requirements.
Which i think caused Shelby's car no end of trouble, with some issue relating to the federal rules, as i recall. A certification problem, if i recall the Autoweek write-up i read a year or so ago.
I love the English cars, my first two were a TR-4 and a 'B.
Owning them taught me a lot about tolerance, and mechanics. Including the ever illusive electron.
