Caterham Super 7 RSR vs. Ariel Atom

[6speed]

Oooooh lightweight scary machines.

We'll say that the Atom is carrying a 175hp SVT Focus engine.

And yeah the 7 is the way it should be.

lol.

Now work that out for your brains.

Then go see the dentist cause you'll need new fillings.

Edit: I forgot to put the poll. Can an mod do this for me please?

Why would we say that when other than the very early Rover K-Series models, all Atoms use a Honda VTEC drivetrain?

And what do you mean by the Se7en is "the way it should be"? There are a thousand and one different ways to configure a Se7en.

The way it comes from the factory mister I'm so smart.

By the way Seven is not spelled Se7en.

Isn't Jack Bauer a line of Figure Skates?

I'm not aware of any Caterham "RSR"? Do you mean the CSR? If so then it's not a really a fair comparison with a 175bhp Atom as the CSR has either 260 or 200bhp.

Possibly, but I don't know anything about figure skates.

[6speed]

I think it's fair. And yes I made a typo. My head's locked on Audi's right now.

And yes Jack Bauer makes figure skates lol.

[blingbling]

Jack Bauer is a fictional spy.

Nike Bauer makes hockey skates, not figure skates.

And by '7 the way it should be - from the factory Mr I'm So Smart' do you mean:

CSR 260?
CSR 200?
SV C400?
Roadsport K Series?
Supersport?
Super 7?
Superlight trim?
14" or 16" alloys?
Carbon bits or not?
5-speed or 6-speed gearbox?
Windscreen or not?
Paint or no paint? It saves a lot of weight you know.

Or do you mean in a bunch of boxes, in bits?

And you can't offer a car comparison and change the engine in one of them!

Huh? It comes from the factory with the Honda VTEC in doesn't it.
I am confused.

By the way Seven is not spelled Se7en.

You obviously don't know much about the Se7en then...

[ferrarifreak013]

an ariel can come from the factory with a 2.0 gm ecotech engine that has around 200bhp or you can get a superchargerd 2.0 vtech type r engine that has 225bhp or you can get a na vtech type r engine that has 175bhp soo like everyone else was saying why change the engine when you have almost theree diffrenet types of engines to put in it?

[Suka]

Now i understand. In the UK it comes with the VTEC and that alone. However in the USA you can get it with the Ecotec 2.0L SC.

[ferrarifreak013]

oh i didnt know you guys dont get as much choices as we do thanks for the info

As far as i can tell the Ecotec has something to do with American Regulations that we don't have here, or something...

[h00t_h00t]

Thats probably it, otherwise why would you say no to an Atom 300?
