      @coliver I love mine too. Good grief I hope not all of them. It's ok if you want to purchase transportation. Then mileage and features and stability (fun)control are all excellent items to look for. I want my next car to terrify me a bit, for which none of those features would add anything useful unless they're easily disabled.

        Haha... I would love to get a track car at some point in the future... although I would probably get a track bike instead... a lot less overhead.

            Is a track bike a monorail then?

              To be fair... I love a manual transmission. Probably some of the most fun I've ever had when driving a car.

              I love manual and one of the benefits of living in Europe is that everything is manual.

                  Yup, way more diesel than benzine here. About 25% of pumps are diesel only!

                    This is cute, but there's no substitute for cubic inches. Period.

                      You can only say that not having been in a Tesla. No engine on the market makes you launch like those electric engines.

                        I've seen the stats on the electric motorcycle that Honda (I think) made... dangerous doesn't even begin to cover it.

                          @art_of_shred No substitute for the noise and feel, agreed.

                          Very excellent substitute for the pants wetting quantities of torque, acceleration, and general mayhem that only big blocks are known for.

                              True, but can you imagine Mad Max in a electric? Wow, that's just lame.

                                Even with all kinds of governors the Tesla car is crazy dangerous. So easy to lose control when you have that kind of power.

                                  I would love to drive one... even to test but don't see that happening anytime soon.

                                            This is cute, but there's no substitute for cubic inches. Period.

                                            You can only say that not having been in a Tesla. No engine on the market makes you launch like those electric engines.

                                            I've seen the stats on the electric motorcycle that Honda (I think) made... dangerous doesn't even begin to cover it.

                                            Even with all kinds of governors the Tesla car is crazy dangerous. So easy to lose control when you have that kind of power.

                                            I would love to drive one... even to test but don't see that happening anytime soon.

                                            I got to ride in one at Pertino and let me tell you, your eyes going blurry from G forces is pretty awesome.

                                            Jealous. I've had the blurry eyed experience in an old Mustang... but from everything I've read the Roadsters are crazy.
