The new TVR is called TVR Griffith, bringing once again the historical name of Griffith from the 1963. Designed by Gordon Murray and packs a 400 bhp Cosworth engine
>>
Just looks like a super toned down TVR with no real special styling.

Not keen, but I thought TVR was dead as fuck?

Oh nice the Kia stinger is out finally

So it has a dog leg 7 speed right?
>>
>Griffith

So this is their entry level one right, right?
>>
>>17840694

It's a side exhaust port, if the exhaust was exposed it'd potentially burn people's legs trying to get in and out of the car.
>>
>>17840713
It's a "Tremec Magnum", so it's a good old fashioned 6 Speed.
>Cosworth tuned Tremec backed 500hp 5.0 Coyote V8

Griffith has always been the more sensible TVR.
My wishful thinking is that it sparks interest at FCA and Dodge to get competitive between their Viper and this on the road and the track.
>>
>>17840726
For a performance car there must be a way to make it more graceful
>>
nice mazda
>>
>>17840628
It turns into a mustang and furiously understeers at full throttle at each corner and aims itself at the largest crowd in sight duh. Mainly made for car shows and such
>>
>>17840629
What are you trying to express here? That you don't like being fucking saved?
>>
>>17840843
Unless you are down on your hands and knees looking directly into the tip, you'd never even notice.
>>
>>17840726
A TVR should be able to burn its driver's leg, though.
>>
>>17840852

TVR very seldom (if at all) historically fitted airbags to their cars factory.

So you don't have to replace the whole muffler assembly when you curb it

Looks like it's just a ring around the port to protect the bodywork, at least they're not faking the shape or number of tips.

doesn't it pack 500 horses, not 400?

also, it seems a bit pricey for what it is.
>>
I looks really good to be a TVR
>>
>>17841430
Not really, it's a 200mph 1200kg (2600lb) car that will get to 100 in 6 seconds. And it's manual. That's fucking rapid for £90k
>>
>>17840610

..six n a bit.

That doesnt sound right?

Oooohhh..

0-100

Thats new, my mistake.

>>17840597
It looks like fucking shit, let's be frank. And it's a modified Ford 5.0.
>>
>>17840746
Is it not ugly enough or something?

>>17841819
That's part of the TVR charm m8
>>
>>17841207
It's died like three times, something will bring it back.
>>
>>17841819
Well it's built in a shed in Surrey so of course it has a cheap American V-8 tuned by another bloke in a shed near by it's all they can afford.
>>
really easy to point out the prius owners itt lol

It better have looney paintjob.

This, if they were flush with body work the paint would bubble and it works warp the side skirts

At least they're the same shape as the tailpipes lol. My MPS has oval shrouds and circular tailpipes
>>
>>17841819
I don't see how "Ford V8" is a problem.
>>
The front isn't doing much for me desu, but the ass is top-tier.

It's a V8, Rear-wheel drive, manual transmission vehicle and faggots here still complaining. Shove your contrarianism in ur asses.
>>
>>17840765
Well at least we can drive, unlike you eurocuck busriders.
>>
>>17840597
Yeah, but will it try to kill me is what I'm more interested in?
>>
>>17843689
Do you not see the kill button? They're going for other road users and/or pedestrians with this one.
>>17843656
I'm with you on that. The bonnet needs a scoop or some vents on the wheel arches like the Sagaris or something. Looks too Toyaburu as it is. Add the front reg plate to it and it'll look worse.
>>
>>17840924
They couldn't dodge the EU mandate anymore. At least that's what I read. Also has ABS and TC I think. Brexit not soon enough
>>
>>17843698

It's not even the bonnet, it's the headlights. They're too "happy" for me, maybe a sharper design would fix.
>>
>>17843258
This. Also would love to see it on a track vs Ford GT. GT might still win, but then again I've never seen video or figures of a GT on a track.

They're too far to the wings and bolt upright. Maybe if the fogs were at the bottom of the bumper it'd break things up a bit more?
>>
>>17843739

Looking at front like this isn't too bad, the color also helps. But still wide as fuck.
>>
>>17840612
It is happy as fuck.
>>
>>17843689
Probably. Just imagine a Mustang with more power, less weight and the bare minimum for nanny features. The pedestrian death toll is going to be astronomical.

>>
>>17846030
That's kinda how TVR rolls though. It's part of their charm.

Plus it leaves more room for a fuckmassive diffuser at the back.
>>
>>17846030
Looks more like they were supposed to go past the doors but someone got sick of burning themselves getting in/out so they shortened them.

>>17846699
Look at the diffuser on it. It's huge.

How much does it even cost? Nobody has been talking about price.

Who gives a shit how much smaller it is than a cayman if its 3x the price.
>>
>>17845991
it's a looker but doesn't exactly scream mad cunt

So yeah it's fucking expensive. Performance wise this is well beyond the Cayman, which I absolutely love.

Holy shit that's some funky stuff with ground effects for a sub-100k road car.

Where the fuck are the angry hatchet style vents and huge spoilers, and sikk exhausts?

i bet it wont even wrap you around a tree without warning
