2004–2006 Noble M12 M400 Specs & Performance

The Noble M12 M400 was developed for drivers who wanted supercar-level pace without the weight and complexity of a conventional luxury exotic. Its compact, low-slung body and purposeful proportions reflect a function-first philosophy, with the rear-mid-engine layout placing the powertrain close to the car’s centre. Unlike many high-performance cars that prioritise comfort and electronic refinement, the M400 focuses on mechanical involvement, chassis balance and direct feedback. Its twin-turbocharged V6 gives it an intense character, while the lightweight construction helps turn that power into remarkable acceleration. As one of Noble’s most focused road cars, the M400 stands out as a specialist British sports coupé built around driving performance rather than prestige or ornament.

Produced from 2004 to 2006, the M12 M400 uses a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 producing 425 hp and 390 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed manual transmission sends power to the rear wheels, enabling a claimed 0–60 mph time of 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 185 mph. Its two-seat cabin and curb weight of approximately 2,381 pounds support its focused, performance-first character.
