Civic Type-R engine in atomcar, twice as quick as s2000!

RCduck7 · 12-28-2004, 05:04 PM

If i hadn't bought my s2000 i'd surely have gone for the atom!

Of course you must have a second car for if it rains.

Don't know what i'm talking about?

Then go to http://www.arielmotors.co.uk

It's got a civic type-R engine with supercharger.

Good for 300 BHP!

And the car weighs only 500 kilograms!

On the track it's faster then a Porsche carrera GT and faster then a racebike in the bends!

It costs 2000 ? more then an s2000.

mmmhh... i want one. :P

I think u r rite the car is fast, but don't forget s2000 does not have those boosts to increase its power..and many ppl likes it cause of this engine.. so i don think that's fair what ppl think?

Hi there El enimali!
You're also from Belgium!
I live in Wetteren.
I watch topgear every week.

I'm not saying you can compare the s2000 with the atom, maybe only in price.
And i know the s2000 engine is motoring nirvana.
A supercharged engine does matter but it's especially the weight of the car that plays the biggest role.

s2000 1280kg

atom 500 kg!

But i know if they made the chasis of the s2000 out of lighter expensive materials they would't sell many cause the price would be to high for most.
