Energy prices aren't going anywhere but up in the long run and it will get to the point where 99% of the people are priced out of having the option to drive a gas-powered car. Just think as the world switches to alternative fuels the availability of gasoline is going to drop. So even if you wanted to drive your "classic" around it would not be feasible day in and day out.
Obviously this won't happen overnight, but 30 years from now the world is definitely going to look much, much different. One way or another we'll have to adapt.

That goes right back to when I said, you can change all the vehicles out there but the sports car should maintain its tradition as a gas engine. I know the reality will be that my family sedan or hauler will be EV. But now we are talking sports cars. Its a niche market that can remain gasoline for way longer than all other transpportation markets.
