(You know, the one from Top Gear http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaWoo82zNUA )

I drove one today and holy crap was it unreal. I've never been in something that was that fast, and cornered that hard, and was as responsive as this car. I did the half day Ariel Atom experience at Race City (http://www.arielatomexperience.com), and got to take a 275 HP, 1400lb rocket on the track for about an hour with a professional driver at my side. Definately the best $500 I've spent in a long, long time. Frickin unbelievable cars, and I can't stop trying to figure out how I can buy one.

I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who likes to go fast and scare the crap out of themselves. I know I did, and so did about 4 of my friends.
