One day I would love to own this
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.
omg secks on wheels! i want an atom so bad!
Bad ass cars.
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.
It was a good turnout. Good to see you there too. I have never seen so many Evos and STIs in one place.
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.
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.
What motor did it have?
Learning everyday.
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.
SC'd? either way its pretty sick seeing one up close
Learning everyday.
that was the evo meets suby..meet right
Sure was. Were you there?
naw i work soo much and im out in lawrenceville till tomm hopefully then im moving to alpharetta.. good kinda in the middle of every meet place!Originally Posted by EM1toEVO
the atoms come with the em1 civic si motor (b18?) sc i believe.
it's 300 hp on a 1300 pounds car. he loses traction in 4th he said.
it was a sc k20. it was not too bad, i mean i was on the bike. thermals and it was good. sick car tho. good meet (even tho i dont own a evo/sti)
i knew it was a SC honda engine. thanks for correcting. reps.
hell yeah. where was that meet?
Was this the one with WRXAtlanta? I know one of the guys on there has an Atom.
yeah it was.
it was the first wrxatlanta and evoatlanta meet together.
holy **** i wish i could have seen that thing in person, i've always wanted to see one
Thats sick somebody should have told him about IA
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.
Alex mentioned trying to get another joint meet together soon.
brett i never noticed your sig until now but whoever took that picture in your signature is good huh?
haha
I agree, but we need more of those good rolling shots.
actually the atom was offered with many different motors, one being a GM ecotech motor which many claimed felt better then the K20.
Learning everyday.
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.
sexy
id drive it lol
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
