Chicagoan who wants an Atom, because it is unique. Pay off the mortgage or buy an atom, so hard!

Can you make an atom street legal there? I'm in AZ, pretty easy here.

Franz is da’ man !

Brought my A2 in from out of state and got it registered in AZ. Wasn’t too bad.

You can always pay off the mortgage later. Buy an Atom! Most fun you can have with your clothes on!

Those were my thoughts exactly. I'm mid 30's, single, good job and a house and was just putting my money into remodeling the house and savings. I already have a highly modified twin turbo 300zx and was looking at buying a 996 turbo Porsche but the 300zx is faster than any 996 in my price range. I always wanted an atom so I said what the hell. Is is a smart purchase? of course not, but it's so damn cool. Live in the now!

Also, purchasing a car before you get too old to really have fun in it. In California, I saw some 80+ year old man who had a knockoff 2 seater Indy car, and he had extreme difficulty getting in and out of that thing. Having an Atom and being able to thrash it (and not thrash you) is amazing.

Maybe he is still that 30 year old whole loves driving his toy.
