It's certainly got the right tires on it!

It also broke twice before they could get the performance numbers, but then held up to multiple hard launches.

Not bad. A streetable super-car killer that cost around $160k.

This 700hp Ariel Atom would fit the most "ludicrously inherently dangerous car you will die in" bill better than just about anything past, present or future
