One of the problems electric cars have is their silence which may not provide enough warning for pedestrians.

40 years from now people will probably be downloading exhaust tones just like they do ring tones for their phone.

Just put playing cards in the spokes of the wheel like we did to our bikes when we were kids...

There would be no 2011 if it weren't for the huge success of the 05-09. I know the 2011 has the new engine but as nice as it is it will become dated.

It will be a pretty unique thing to have a big gurgling IC engine in that day. Driving away from stop lights will make little kids cry in terror... "Mommy! That car made a sound like God shouting.. "

Man, the future is going to be sweet.
The future...HMMMM.

I think I'll sit back, and listen to some Rush. Red Barchetta to be exact and dream of the future. Although my vision won't be Ferrari.

IWantMyNewGT raises a good point. Why not the '10?

Were there fewer '09s or '10s produced? 2009 was a very bad year for production.

I agree because I DO own one I hope you are enjoying your "classic" now as much as I am mine. Carry on!
