Motorcycles are my first love. Loud, fast, dangerous and completely impratical. Like an Ariel Atom, but $60,000 cheaper.
For sheer exhiliration, bikes wins hands down. They're a lot faster than the Atom. Big showboat wheelies are way more exciting than any tire spin that the Atom can deliver. Stoppies are well... stoppies! You can't do that in an Atom either. You can get the track day fun of the Atom in an $11,000 liter class bike and the grand touring luxury of a 370z touring/sport for $38,000. Together, they are still $21,000 less than the Atom.
The Atom just doens't make sense to me unless you already have your sedan, your utility vehicle, your sports car and you're looking for a track day toy!
