This is for non-Subaru related topics. Keep it realistic please.

Saw an Ariel Atom on the road yesterday.

Looks like this http://www.arielmotor.co.uk/side/side.jpg

I was shocked. Looked fun as hell. I was so shocked that I didn't even notice if it had plates or not. I wonder how they registered it.

Could be manufacturer plates - saw all kinds of random contemporary Fiat products running around Detroit like that (Alfa Spider, Lancia Kappa, etc). Those things are sick. I love the stripped down cars the British make. I don't know how they get away with it as they seem as litigious as we are, but I'm glad they do. If we could only get more of them here.

Anyone ever see a T-Rex trike? It is (was?) made in Canada by an ex-F1 engineer and was another beauty. Sort of a more extreme Grinnal Scorpion.

Midnight in a Perfect World on Amazon or order anywhere. The first book in a quartet chronicling the rise of a man from angry criminal to philanthropist. Midnight... is a distopic noirish novel featuring 'Duchess', a modified 1990 Subaru Legacy wagon.

t- rexs are aviable for like 13k and are advertised in cycle mags. tyson beckford has one in his huge colection of racing bikes. and west coast customs has one in their shop. and my neighbor has one in his airplane hanger that doubles as a garage
