That was an absolute joke. Using a mix of Manufacture times and magazine times. They should of actually took the time and find the fastest times each car posted by a magazine( or an online publication) or just used the manufacture times. Instance: The Z06( ignoring the " Its light despite its big engine" comment as anybody should know the LS7 is a smaller and lighter then a similar displacement DOHC engine would) does 0-60 in 3.4 seconds in Motortrends test. GM's time was 3.7 seconds. Yet, they used the reviews to get the Veyrons 2.5 seconds.

No the atom isn't a kit car, it's sold fully assembled by Brammo in the US, but it may not be road legal, I'm not sure so that may be the reason.
