Doesn't really prove anything about the motor, all it really glorifies is Ariel's ability to build a great, light chassis. 300 hp isn't much to brag about.

OMGZorz!!!!! I need to order some of dat Ariel Atom VTEC fluid!

Imaginary-VTEC FTW


BTW I have nothing against the engine. But 300hp doesn't really show anything. Any motor could be put in that car and it would still be fast.

^^its actually has been increased ....he said it was 29 K pounds, but the actual price now is around 35K+ pounds for a used one....so i am guessing a new one in USD is over 40K

I'd say thats probably a good motor for the car, anything torquier would spin the tires so easily.

Good RWD cars generally do handle better than awd cars. That thing might as well be on rails.
