    Great to see some new images of the purple M12. I used to post on the Vector Aeromotive Club messageboard, but the website has been dead for what seems like 3 years.

    These are great looking machines! Always wanted to own one, or at least ride in one. I have a photo of the dashboard from a W8 as my computer's desktop.

    Congrats!

    The W8 was cooler than the M12. I think it sort of parted ways from the fighter jet to becoming more of a supercar.

    W8 - It looks more like a Fighter Jet
    M12 - It looks more like a Helicopter (Long in the rear & short front nose)

    They're both have different & unique looks. It would be nice if I have both in my garage, I better go buy some lotto tonight :p

    I spoke with the saleman in South Africa back in 04, if I'm not wrong he was asking $375k for that M12.

    I still prefer the WX3 Coupe any day! I tried sitting in the M-12 (actually, now that I think of it, your friend's M-12 is the very one! Aron is pretty cool and it was fun hanging with him at Monterey back in '05) and it was very cramped, but inside the WX3 I had quite a bit of space. Plus I like the WX3's looks better, though the M-12 still looks cool too.

    WX3 - It doesn't have a center console or gear box, therefore more space.

    One thing I noticed, that when he turning the ignition both coolant fans sounds like a jet engine.

    M12 is very rare, only 15 cars (with P1) and 2 versions competition (M12R).

    And 19 Vector W8 (with PP01 & PP02), 1 W2, 1 WX3 coupe, 1 WX3 spider, 1 proto SR-V8 and 1 WX8.
    Soon, an other new model (WX8 ?) for LA Auto Show in next November.

    Vector-France, have you seen the two pictures of the Vector SRV8 that showed up on exoticspotter.com several months ago?

    I believe I sent the pictures to Kevin, but I can't find the pictures on the site anymore... I believe I have them saved on my computer at work.

    EDIT:
    I did some searching, and came across a topic on here where the person who posted the pictures on exoticspotter posted the pics once again.
    http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=149147&highlight=vector+srv8

    Also came across much better pictures here:

    That's weird... someone posted them back in April and said their brother took them if I remember correctly. How unusual...

    Exoticspotter is a terrible website as far as archiving goes. I can't find the pictures because the uploader put them in the "other other" section which is not a section we can access via navigation.
