Quote by: The Dunedan  I ask as a handling freak who's decided to wait a few years for the Ariel Atom to become available used for say 30,000 bucks, and then see just how sick you can make one of those things. I cut my teeth on a lowered '71 Midget (Gawd, I miss that little car!), but the Atom just takes my breath away. Even the Exige isn't that friggin' sticky. |
Seems like it would be extremely uncomfortable.
I also don't like that when I go to their website, it says "designed on a clean sheet of paper" implying all-new, and then I click on drivetrain, and it's powered by a GM Ecotec 2.0 SC. That's a great engine, but it's certainly not new or solely for the Atom...
I am looking at one of these next:
Pontiac G8
High power, great performance, comfortable highway star. They're getting great reviews so far. It's based on the Holden Commodore, one version of which is the most powerful car ever built in Australia. I'll wait for the GXP version though.
