LOL! My top end would stomp it (~190), however due to the weight, its 0 to 60 tops my ~4 seconds.
OTOH, I have a windshield heads-up display, 6 way heated seats, dual climate controls, GPS Nav display with touch screen, DVD, CD, iPod, active handling, active traction control, "smart" (active shocks), antilock brakes, 14" crossdrilled and slotted rotors, aluminum/magnesium frame, carbon/kevlar engine parts, HID lights, composite body panels, keyless entry and start, voice controls (it talks back as well), XM satellite radio, Onstar, indexed windows, etc. :-)
Well, the article did say it CRUISED at 160 and I didn't see any mention of top end. The article also said it bested the Porsche Carrera something or other. I say it would be a race.
Of course, you could listen to your Ipod but you would need to wear your Bose noise cancelling headset!
The Atom beats that Vette of yours by a healthy 7.3 seconds around the Top Gear test track.
....once around the track.
