    Kinda Mazda derivative in looks, but these guys are serious. F1 is tossing this idea around as well. The next ten years should be interesting. Alot depends on gasoline becoming very pricey. You wanna affect change? Get a 500bhp Cayenne and flat-foot it everywhere except when pulling the 40' boat with the Hummer Wanna save the earth? Easy! Plant trees! That's my game plan, and I'm sticking to it.

    Now that's the kind of engine swap I'm talking about!! It just needs to sound good though, that's the problem with electric cars, maybe I could record a nice deep growl out of a 454 and play that at low speeds or something

    Back a lot of years ago, I recorded a bunch of idling and some Rump Rump noises at a monster truck show. Then I played it really loud in the gremlin while sitting at traffic lights with the windows down. You could make the car rock around by moving your body a little and wow did I ever get some attention.

    Talking

    I entered my VX in a 4x4 & PT Cruiser show a few years back and one of the funnier entries was a decked out PT Cruiser with airbrushed graphics and a rather loud cd recording of deep, loud big-block motor sound effects blasting out the speakers..put a grin on every passerby's face..lol.
