I had one of these. It looks fast, but handles like crap. The transmission always stuck between third and fourth, and the back end would break loose around every corner -- even in good weather.

Total piece of crap. Deadly at any speed.

The TVR Cerbera Speed 12, originally known as the Project 7/12 was a high performance concept car designed by TVR in 1997. Based in part on then-current TVR hardware, the vehicle was intended to be both the world's highest performance road car and the basis for a GT1 class endurance racer. However, problems during its development, changing GT1 class regulations and the eventual decision that it was simply incapable of being used as a road car ended the idea, forcing TVR executives to abandon its development.[citation needed]

The vehicle's engine, displacing 7.7 litres and having twelve cylinders, was reportedly capable of producing nearly one thousand horsepower,[citation needed] although an exact measurement was never made. Nonetheless, its performance was said to be astonishing, and it may have been capable of hitting sixty miles per hour in the low-three second range and have a top speed close to that of the McLaren F1.[1]
