An Awesome Ariel Atom Review!
@Dezoris made a pretty rad review of the new Ariel Atom 3S, in addition to touring the TMI Autotech facility.
Props on upping the production quality too dude! [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UllRPl43zoo"]Review | Ariel Atom 3S | Fountain of Youth[/ame]

Been my dream car since they first started in England.
I cringed hard at some of the "engineer's" statements. Trial and error is not engineering. Design work is not engineering. Was that guy actually an engineer, or a CAD jockey overselling himself?

Contrary to popular belief trial and error and design is heavily involved in engineering, it's led to some of the greatest tech advancements of our time.

Trial and error is not engineering. It may be involved in invention but it is not engineering. That trial and error are associated with engineering, unfortunately, is the incorrect popular belief.

The Atom is pretty special. Just too much $$ for me. I still giggle when I think of Clarkson's jowls.

Trial and error works for me, but I am not an engineer, I'm a scientist.
