for a go-cart? I rather pay $57K for a 2008 like mine Super charged and with AC
We have go karts too! This one just doesnt have a top but it would be oh so fun.

And the supercharged elise is only putting out about 230-240 hp. My car is putting down over 325 to the wheels and this Atom would walk all over my car!

I think an Elise is an Escalade next to an Atom, an Atom is a stepped up motorcycle, it should be classified as an RTV-I for intelligence or for Honda fans the equivalent to I-VTECH. I bet you swap that V-8 on an Elise and you'll pick up more chicks No doubt that cars are all about personal preference, I for one may be the only sports car enthusiast in the world that is not so impressed by these silly on car companies, Noble, Bugatti, atom, lotus (take that back, Lotus makes 3 ) etc. I'm not even all that impressed by the all mighty McLaren.... the drive train is BMW not McLaren, most of these companies don

It is cool if you got money to blow but I would want something more practical like a Lotus or an S2k with some goodies i.e. Kaftworks SC.
