I was at the pittsburgh vintage grand prix a few weeks ago, and I got to see a noble up close and personal. For those of you that are unfarmilliar with these cars....THEY KICK BUTT. they are a low volume production supercar. you can check them out at www.noblecars.com . the reason I bring this up is because of what I noticed on this 2004 modle. Look at the rear end of the car and tell me what you see. Not a big deal...but being a hyundai fan I thought it was cool.

Yes, those are close (if not the same) to EF Sonata Taillights.

yep...as near as I could tell, they are sonata tails. It appears that noble has began manufacturing their own for the 2005 model. They have only been in production for a few years, and I think that as they sell more, they make more of their own parts. Probably didnt have a manufacturer that was willing at the time to produce tailights for a car that only has a production level of a few hundred. Hence the reason they probably used sonata tails. Heck they use a twin turbo version of the ford duratech v6 that is found in the mazda six. the car is cool as hell in person. if you ever get that chance to see one, its definatly worth it.

This was discussed on HP a while back. They are definitely Sonata EF2 tails.
