Looks very interesting and it says all DOT requirements meant.
"*New Arrival* Red over Black Ariel Atom 3! Built by TMI in Alton, VA, this is a VERY rare car in the USA. This car has a original sticker of nearly $83K with all the DOT requirements met. The car is titled and registered in Ohio w/zero issues. This car is one of the fastest road cars in the world, period. Call for price, this car will move quickly!"
I wouldnt believe the DOT statement if I were you. Those are standard headlights for example. It does look like it has a VIN though
Just spoke to the dealer he says its got the Racing light upgrade - what ever that is
He couldn't confirm the catalytic converter.
But it does have ohio plates and dmv inspection sticker on the windshield.
Its got R888, wilwood brakes, windshield wipre, passenger foot rest
No CF any where, stock steering wheel , stock belts, not much else.
I see the pedals are worn out and it has heel rubs on the fiberglass tub. Is this normal? it has only 300miles on it.
No Brake bias control and doesn't look like it has 17" rears
It is decent and all but what do you think you have more experience then I do
"Racing light upgrade" is the term for just adding the standard turn signals and headlights. These are not standard on the car since they arent needed for the track (besides the brake lights).
So these are the standard headlights. I'd ask TMI if anyone has done a DOT headlight.

I like the car. It's got good paperwork and nice options. Brake bias is a $50 expense and an easy D-I-Y. Not crazy about the wheels anyways. What are they asking for it?
The power of an Atom is a terrible thing to waste! Atom owner/operator since 2007. The more you chase perfection,the faster it becomes. John Force for President! (I asked him once in person...he laughed)
Cyberbug, you should buy Max's goldfinger. Is it still for sale?
Yeah it looks nice - but curious why it has 300miles in over 2 years.
Also the wear on the pedals and fiber tub doesn't compute
Max tell me about the goldfinger
How many atoms do you have?
