I like the slogan "if you can dream it, you can do it". Thankfully, I can dream of something I lot nicer than that.

I'm surprised nobody makes an Atom type copy of the McLaren F1, single seat in the front and two behind/on the side.

Yes, I believe the home builder posted on this forum some time ago saying that his car was a tribute or compliment to the Atom.  

I remember Madmax saying something like .. "a bazilllion hours hours to build that at home... I think I came out ahead just buying an Atom."
