That's really unfortunate but, you have to think about the kind of people who attend auctions in the first place. I, for one, would love to have a hybrid or all-electric performance vehicle. But I'm not really a purist or traditionalist when it comes to how power is made.

If I can buy a 9 second car for under 100 then let's deal. But not a half mill even for the first one.

Copos are a tough sell not being street legal.

Crank up a recording of exhaust sound if it hurts your butt that hard. If you actually got a chance to drive an electric monster like the ecopo and it was actually street legal, you would have to stay in the car for a good 15 minutes after draining the batteries to hide your erection. Instant torque would ruin you

And I'd also have to spend 4 hours charging batteries to drive another 15 minutes....

That argument is only valid with current gen lithium ion batteries. A part of electric cars that is rapidly improving finally. I believe toyota is going to market soon with a battery that doubles the energy density of current gen lithium ion batteries and tesla has already begun producing but not yet using their new battery that will function over the course of a million miles worth of use - eliminating the need to replace a battery pack over the lifetime of the vehicle.
Basing a lifelong view of an entire powertrain for vehicles because of a temporary current aspect of it is like someone stating in 1992 they'll never drive a gas powered car because of the type of fuel injection system. |

Every time a post comes up knocking the electric future you're all in favor of (and more consequentially, all in favor of dragging the rest of us into - whether WE want it or not), it's a wonder that you haven't sold your 1LT in favor of a nice Tesla. With them, the future you want is now, they're selling what you're buying, and once you're posting in their forums instead you can join the other futurists sneering at the old-fashioned Neanderthals who dare to LIKE their true-to-the-heritage pony cars with the V8 in front and drive wheels in the back. |
