What is your dreamcar, realistic or otherwise?
Well one reaosn why would be so that the tires last longer. Running the a032 or ao48 tend to not last very long. However, the ao 32 and ao48 have much more grip than the es100.
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.

They didn't mention it in the magazine.Here in the states where they have the atom 2 division you only have the option for a supercharged or NA version of the ecotec which is also in saturns. The US division went away with the gsr engines about 6 months ago.
Also you can build your own atom the way you want it. You can chose many different things including tires and wheels.
My friends dad got the very last gsr powered atom.

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.

wow....knew it was banned but didnt know it was this bad...
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. 
Some very awesome dreams. I still like my realistic dream better than all yours though , but the unrealistic ones are hard to choose from. Glad to see there's some huge dreamers on evom though!
