I am with Nick, you are mad but what a machine ... 
I notice in the image you posted the tryes are AD08's I had those on my S, and they have so much traction it's ridiculous. As Nick says, congratulations

Update.
Went to the factory today to agree an absolutely final spec.
Main issue was the colour the frame will be painted, which will be as close as we can get to the BMW Lupin Blue which graces both my HP2 Sport and my K1300S HP:
You can't get an exact match with powder coat but we had some samples made and picked one - RAL 5010. Both the frame and wheels will be painted this colour/ The body panels will be white and the mudguards will be CF.
When the frame arrives from the powder coaters I'll be going down to take some photos and leave a camera for the chap building the car so he can keep a photographic record of the build. I shall post updates but probably on a new thread.
Delivery is scheduled for early March next year.

Never got on with the Atom, but I'm glad they exist and people still buy them.

Just noticed the rest of the car will be white. That is exactly the same colour scheme as the lift.
Wonder if i could buy an atom in the same spec and put it through the company as a promotional tool
