"Quite simply, if you want to buy the fastest car in America, you'll have to have a TVR," Mr. (Peter - owner of TVR) Wheeler said.
TVR's are seriously fast. The TVR Tuscan races from 0 to 60 m.p.h. in 4.2 seconds and can top 180 m.p.h.
Odd thing is, (from the article) they are "challenging to drive, given their balky gearshifts, unprogressive clutches and nervous steering."
Reminds me of the complaints I hear in here about Saab, especially Viggen, handling. I say - get used to it.
Oh, and spare me the cheap shots on all things automotively British. The British can still lay claim to having manufactured the most beautiful car of them all - the E-type Jaguar. And it was Spitfires with Rolls Royce engines that won the Battle of Britain.
(article from the New York Times - you need a subscription but it costs nothing)
Fast, English, Eccentric And Headed This Way
