Most Evo owners can't drop $50k on a track only car. It's really not within most peoples means or very wise to spend that much on a car that will get used so rarely.

 

Its not a track only car you can get them street legal here in the states. My friends dad has a atom and he was able to get it street legal. He drives it to work at times. However, its definitely not the most practical car for daily use but 50k for a car that basically decimates all is definitely worth it to me. I am actually going to buy one of these in couple years. I have driven my friends and its worth every single penny.

 

what's so unrealistic about the R34?

 

Realistic: Call me crazy...but my first car was a 1997 Grand Marquis that looked like this



and I always wanted to put in a ford racing 302 and some other goodies and make it look like this



(forgive the poor MS Paint job!) But if Dodge can make Chargers in outrageous Daytona models with awesome muscle car colors, why cant I have a similar kind of Ford?

Unrealistic: an actual WRC rally evo

 

Well it may not be unrealistic to you but for other here in the states it is very unrealistic because the fact that our government doesnt allow them here anymore. I think the only ones allowed are the r32 and r33.

Also to put things in perspective for you there are about a dozen in a half r34 in america. Now if you think about that then the r34 is almost as rare as a enzo or a veyron.

So yes its pretty unrealistic for us. Now if you managed to get one here you wouldnt even be able to drive it.

 

Track car.


That's what I plan on doing, any who. Plus I wouldn't drive it on the street, too much attention even for weekend driving...

 

im happy with my evo... it is my dream car. i'm lucky to have such a great car

i wish i had enough extra money laying around to mod it more and have a daily driver.

so i guess my 2nd dream car would be a rsx or mazda 3... not the s or speed.. just leather and bose stereo!

cheers

 

thats funny...

a car that suppose to handle like no other and it has the crappy falkens on it. why not some azenis 615 or some big boy r compound... or hell ya dont drive it often. it should always have slicks on it

 

^ Actually the Ariel Atom II comes comes with the Advan A048s F:205/50R-15 and R:225/45R-16 (Car and Driver March 07 issue, pg.44).

My realistic dream car would be a fully built and modified 800awhp Supra... I wouldn't want to have more than 800, since I want to keep it somewhat drivable...

My unrealistic dream car would be the Ferrari F1 that Schumacher drove last year

 

Dream car: Nissan Skyline R34 Z tune

 

one day:




rs4,like an evo but better
looks like bluebyu a little.

 

wonder why that idiot replaced one of the best tires on the market for one of the worst.

 

Agreed. Well, what really surprised me is that the Ariel is powered by the Cobalt SS engine. You have the option to order it in hp levels of 205 to 300 depending on what stage you want. I think the one they tested had the Stage II (245hp) version which completed the 1/4 mi. in 11.7@120mph In any case, maybe they give you the option to choose your tires as well. They didn't mention it in the magazine.

 

actually the tires that are on that pic are yokohama es100. I know cause if you have good eyes you can see the yokohama lettering on the sidewall of the tire.

 

or maybe
