Some of you probably saw the video with Jeremy Clarkson test driving the supercharged version of the Ariel Atom. If you didn't, watch this:
Top Gear video: Ariel Atom (MPEG 48mb)
Now I've come to find out, Ariel does not import these to the United States, because of our idiotic laws regarding import cars.
But there is a bright side, Brammo Motorsports out of Ashland, Oregon, has made a deal with Ariel to produce the Atom stateside. I was checking out their website, seems they make some oddities like a 600cid V12, some souped up GM motors, and a 2.0L V8.
Yes, that's right, a two-liter V8. It weighs in at little more than the 2.0L I4 that the Atom comes with, and produces some 400hp in NA form.
I want one.
