One day I would love to own this

[EM1toEVO]

At a recent meet, one of the guys had an Ariel Atom. I had never seen one in person before. Amazing car to say the least. Advan A048 Tires, H&R coilovers, and a full cf shell over the tubular frame. All I had with me was a cell phone to take this pic. I forgot my camera, but I won't next time.

[Elbow]

Bad ass cars.

[Ed]

yeah sex on wheels.

that was such a good meet too. good to see you there man. hopefully we can have more of those soon.

[EM1toEVO]

It was a good turnout. Good to see you there too. I have never seen so many Evos and STIs in one place.

[Ed]

yeah. it was a nice turn out. i think we had a bigger meet once or twice as Evo SE a while back... i remember we cruised this one curvy road at night one time, like 8-10 evos one behind the other adn all you would see would be flashes from the flames shootin out. lol it was fun. good times.

[EM1toEVO]

Yeah we didn't do much driving that night. It was kinda cold. I can't wait for it to warm up a little. It had to be freezing driving an Atom that night.

[umairejaz]

What motor did it have?

[EM1toEVO]

I don't know. I didn't get a look under the "hood". I did peek over into the cockpit and look around though. I didn't know who the owner was since there were so many people there that I didn't know.

[umairejaz]

SC'd? either way its pretty sick seeing one up close

[DUBSf22c]

[MistaCee]

[Deke]

Yeah, I wanted to make it, but haven't gotten back into town yet. Glad to hear it was a good meet! Hopefully I'll be able to make it to the next.

[EM1toEVO]

Alex mentioned trying to get another joint meet together soon.

[Ed]

brett i never noticed your sig until now but whoever took that picture in your signature is good huh?

haha

[EM1toEVO]

I agree, but we need more of those good rolling shots.

[umairejaz]

actually the atom was offered with many different motors, one being a GM ecotech motor which many claimed felt better then the K20.

[speedminded]

i knew it was a SC honda engine. thanks for correcting. reps.The North American (2nd gen) has a supercharged 2.0L Ecotec from the Saturn ION Red Line & Cobalt SS while the Ariel Atom 1 (UK) has the supercharged K20Z from the Civic Type-R...

NOTE: The North American importer, Brammo Motorsports, did build ten (10) of them in '06-07 with K20a's before switching to the Ecotec.

[Rsxguy]

sexy

[Maki]

id drive it lol

[integra2die4]

I heard that these cars in the states have the same motor that is in the Cobalts. I read about this car not to long ago. The ones that are overseas are the ones with Honda motors in them. Correct me if I am wrong
