| Is there anything Ariel Atom-ish that's street legal in Canada?
I was driving to work a while back and passing through Burnaby and saw a car that looked a lot like an Ariel Atom. It had 4 wheels (so not one of those three wheel motorcycle like dealies) with a word written on the back but I completely forgot what it was.
So I figure i'd ask, is there anything similar in size/shape to the Atom that's legal in Canada?

I saw an ariel atom coming down cypress last week, was too shocked to get a look at the plate. I saw it had a plate, but not sure if it was from washington or something

I'm almost positive this one had BC plates, but could've been dealer plates.

BAC Mono are also track use only here in Canada, the "cheapest" way to do it will be doing a washington plate...

So I figure i'd ask, is there anything similar in size/shape to the Atom that's legal in Canada? | Could it have been an EXOCET based on the na miata? Google it

I got a buddy that has a Sylva Striker with a 4AGE motor, insured.
I would love to have an Atom or S7, amazing handling.
