The Atom is awesome, until you look at the prices. Then you just say berkeley it and look at locosts.

Ya isn't that in the 200K-300K range in US$? That's pure insanity.

I think Atoms end up in the 50-60k range... which is still pretty high - especially because I don't think it can be street legal here at all.

Pretty sure someone is manufacturing and selling them them in the US.

The "standard" Atom with the Honda or the Ecotec is in the 50-60k range, but nooooooot this one.

The V8 Atom is very different from previous versions. Stronger uprights, everything. Same backbone but a very different car.
Plus, speed costs money. Right?

Actually, there's a fellow in Grand Junction with a V8 Atom - the smaller, 2.8 liter, normally aspirated version with "only" 400 bhp. It's street licensed and it's fast! Took FTD at our last track day,and it's still having development problems for out twisty track. Amazing engineering!
