I have been trying to get one into the US for quite a while. Check the performance numbers on them. AWESOME!!!

Tuscan S or T440R are my choice. I am trying to get the T440R but having certification issues

TVRs are awesome ... home made engines, no extra crap (no sound insulation, no abs, no traction control, no power steering no nothing! lol) super lightweight. Just sweet cars.
I like the first one better ... but the good ol Cerbera is great...

Anyone heard of Marcos lately? Been a while since I have seen nothing from them .......

I must say I have to disagree that these are really great motors. Although they've got significantly better over recent years, they have a long history of unreliability, and some dodgy build quality. The road from the UK to Le Mans every year would be scattered with many wounded TVRs just trying to make a 3-500 mile drive. My brother in the UK just off'ed his Cerbera for this reason. I must admit it was brutally fast from a balls-out Bhp to weight standpoint, but certainly wasn't inspiring from a handling point of view.

FYI they're made in Blackpool, England - not Scottland.
