    The Ariel Atom. That is an amazing vehicle. And it is about to get even more amazing when they strap and even bigger engine on it.

    Here is a review of the car from the BBC Television show Top Gear-

    I’ve driven one. It ruined all cars for me, forever. There’s probably nothing else on the road that lets you feel as connected to the vehicle as the Atom. Maybe a Lotus 7 clone…

    Awesome car with amazing dynamics. And the best part is, it’s so tame. The only thing to be wary of is the torque in the supercharged version. It’s a “start-in-second” sort of thing.

    I guess people buy cars like Porsches and Corvettes to be seen in, but the car that turns their heads is the Atom.
