Ivan,

What about the 2010 Tesla Roadster all electric car? 0-60 in 4 secs (not bad) and no sound? Given the amount of electricity you draw in your FL and Cape abodes with all those blue meters, this may make you more carbon-neutral :D. Not bad looking either:

And compared to the Porsches and Ferraris, this is a veritable steal at $111-$130K. What say you Masterlu? :D

Only sat in one, never drove it . The carrera GT I am told is a widow maker on the track. Still it is a real head turner.

I'm all for minimizing my carbon footprint, but that car won't find it's way into my garage. :icon_thumbsdown:

On the back roads we drive on? A definite handful. Be sure to have a nice life insurance policy. :D

I don't think the GT1 was ever street legal in the US. The Carrera GT is a different story. I never drive one, just sat in one a a Porsche Club here event a few years ago.

No, not to my knowledge either about the GT1. I doubt there were ever more than a handful of them actually street legal anywhere. :scratch2:

As far as I remember they were supposed to produce several for homologation purposes so they could race it at LeMans.

Man, that is one confused car... :icon_thumbsdown: I see design elements of Duesenberg, Rolls Royce, Bentley and even Auburn boat tail.... Some kind of psychotic mix of old and new all wrapped into one. :no:
