Default THE coolest car ever.

Everyone watch Top gear RIGHT now. They have the Atom on it. This car is a 550 kg ( about 1100 lb) car with a 300 hp supercharged honda motor. 0-60 mph in about 2.9 seconds. I want one. Anyone else see it?

Hell yes I saw that.

That car is amazing. I can't believe it beat that bike.

Oh by the way, I fell out of my sofa laughing when I saw his face flattened and wiggling around like it did.

I've seen one IRL before. Neat little car, but I'd hate to be in an accident in one.

I'd also like to see a Mustang with the handling characteristics of an Atom.
