In-game description[]

"A 2+2 sportscar with an air of class, powered by TVR's inline-6."

When TVR unveiled the Cerbera at the 1994^[1] Birmingham Motor Show, it caused a major commotion, wowing all who were present with its slick 2+2 layout and radical styling. Legend has it that 276 orders for the car were placed on the spot. The Cerbera came equipped with an example of one of the company's first engines built in-house. Under the hood of the performance-minded Cerbera Speed 6 was a 4-liter inline-6 rated at 350 BHP and 329.9 lb-ft of torque. It came mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox. And because this FR (Front engine, Rear drive) car weighed only 1130 kg, the Cerbera possessed awesome on-road performance. Not only did the car go fast in a straight line, it turned with the best of them, thanks to a traditional double-wishbone suspension system all around.

But this Cerbera Speed 6 was tame when compared to the Speed 12, presented at the 1999 London Motor Show. The Speed 12 had almost as much impact as a new model. The main skeleton consisted of steel pipes, but the floor and bulkhead were made of aluminum honeycomb panels. The most impressive thing about the car was its engine, a 7730-cc V12 that cranked out a whopping 800 BHP. This allowed the Speed 12 to reach a top speed of 240 mph and run to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds.
