Nice!!!

 

That thing just made me dizzy....holy ****...i want one....i wonder if they would be street legal in US....its basically a go-kart with a supercharged 300 hp honda engine...wow, and i seen the video of that guy driving the konigsiegg and that thing was fast, but its just behind the enzo....wow....thats it...wow

edit: thank you USDM3 that thing gives me a new dream....for when i turn 39...better start saving up now!

edit edit: heres the website...http://www.arielmotor.co.uk/04/frames.htm
I don't think they would pass collision tests??what else would prevent them from being road worthy?? im sure they pass emmision tests.

Kit cars are not only legal, they do not have the same OE standards as mass produced automobiles. On top of it, at least in california, they do no have to meet the same EPA standards as a mass market car

 

So tempting to dump the bank accounts

 

So your saying i could technically own one of these cars and register it for use on city streets??...how does insurance work on a kit car?? ....i wonder what kind of g's that thing can pull in corners

edit: my fathers friend used to have a kit car be he said there was alot of restrictions as to where you could use it??

Perhaps he had it registered as a race or show car? You can only use those for a certain mileage per year, as far as I know.

There is someone in Washington who uses the Atom every day.

 

OMG I want

"so, stick that in your sports exhaust, mr kawasaki."

best quote out of the whole piece

 

you guys are aware there are kit cars that can be created for far less which deliver similar performance? enter the super 7.

 

Its funny seeing that because up until about 6 months ago i spent about 1 1/2 years designing a car similar to that. differences being that i was planning on covering the body with carbon fiber (yes i do carbon work) and i wanted to use a K20 Turbo with around 340 or 350 hp. and only a 1 seater.

I sooo want one of those...

 

Yehh good ole Super 7, that damn thing kicked my *** so many times in sega GT, what a **** off....

However when i got the super 7 in the game it sucked *****.....it was fast as hell on the 1/4 mile though....the atom is the opposite....

According to caterhams websites the fastest super 7 is about right on par in 0-60 as the atom and it costs almost the same. 31,000 pounds for the super 7 and 35,000 pounds for the atom....
