[-|CHECKMATE2012|-]

I saw this thing twice, once on July 1st heading down to woodbine and a couple of weeks ago. It is small...even motorcycle riders where shaking there heads lol

[London3]

[Aitch]

Slightly drunken fail lol. Saw "Aston" further down (while on my phone) and thought "yo I gotta get on that ish".

ahahah no worries, figured something like that happened

[dentinger]

dont these things sell for $40k overseas?

i'll take a caterham instead.

[Mr Wilson]

About £30,000 for an Atom 3 in GB, starting $52,500 US for the American spec Atom 3.

But the Atom's is all luxury and tickles your balls as you drive? :P

Just kidding.

In all seriousness, I tried to convince my uncle to buy that specific Aston, so we actually had gone down to take a look. He hated the interior colour (and refuses to buy an ostentatious car like that to begin with), but I personally think it looks 100x better in person.

[Burner]

I bet this guy is regretting his decision to buy the atom from Brammo in pieces then spending the same amount or more in labour to build it as a kit car here.

But the Ariel Atom looks more fun to drive! haha:chuckle

+1 don't think you can get a more fun (and awesomely insane) street legal car!

[RTEnthusiast]

There's no doubt that it's probably more fun, but I'd consider a DB9 an awesome "all-around" car. Think about it; it's a $65-70K car so you wouldn't hesitate to drive it in the winter; it sounds absolutely monstrous, it'll have insane presence no matter where you go, and it'll be comfortable on long trips.

The Atom is more like a once-a-week car. If that's what you want, sure, it'll be more fun on that one day... but what about the rest of the week?

Haha, I didn't say anything about wanting any of the cars or considering buy any of the them. I just said that the atom is a more fun vehicle to drive....hands down.
