While we have a ways to go, I feel that electric engines coupled with inductive recharging will be the future for the typical commuter. I do hope, though, that the market continues to embrace old fossil-fuel vehicles, even if the fuel for them may be very expensive.

Where's your exhaust sound?
Where's the shifter?
Where's that torquey feel from changing gears?
where's the handbrake to drift into a corner.
Wheres the fun in modding it outside of buying a deluxe battery pack?
Where's the soul of the car?
wheres the exhaust port? Car has no balls. Just going fast don't mean shyt. Otherwise we'd all be owning FWd monte carlo SS's and Altima 3.5 coupes. Those are in the same speed range as our Z's.

Electric= Booooooorrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiinnnnnngggg!!!!

The irony is people who complain about CVT also praise electric cars. Electric is like CVT on crack.

What will probably happen is a recording of the exhaust note will play when you hit the gas peddle.

I think that's what they were doing in that movie, The Dilemma. That will become reality soon if electric keeps moving forward.
