"In addition to making roadsters that no one will buy" you mean? This company to me is nothing more than a POC. Electric only is something for a few people that want to look like they give a crap out in Cali. If it isn't hybrid it's a waste of time and money.
The only way I would own one is if it came with free towing, because I'm sure you'll need it.
@Palmer74: In 1972 a crack battery unit was sent to storage by an electronics court for a charge they didn't commit. These batteries promptly escaped from a maximum security warehouse to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by Wal-Mart, they survive as powerers of gadgets. If you have a Game Boy - if no one else can plug it in - and if you can find them - maybe you can use: The AA-Team.

@Cliff_Dangers: Personally I think it best that they stay quiet. Less car noise pollution in the city would be welcome. Used to live on an Island in China called Xiamen. They have a law forbidding the use of car horns. I'd like to see that added as well.
@Cliff_Dangers: Banning car horns is a bit too much, there is a definite need to call attention to the drones of zombies walking and driving around. I do agree with banning car horns for non-essential purposes - mainly car alarms.
On my motorcycle, I have found even a modified horn gets ignored, so I generally open the throttle in bursts. An artificial engine noise may get noticed (as a threat?) even easier.
In other news, if my car could make any sound in the world, that sound would be me, shouting:
FUCK YOU ALL! I HATE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU COCK-SUCKERS AND I HOPE YOU GET SOME HIDEOUS VENEREAL DISEASE AND SPEND THE REST OF YOUR WORTHLESS LIVES CLAWING AT YOUR GENITALS! I'LL SEE YOU ALL IN HELL, FUCKERS! GO CHOKE ON A DICK!
Come to think of it - all I need is a bullhorn strapped to the top of my car hooked up to a tape player on loop. Does anyone know where I can buy a bullhorn for my car?
The frakkin' Hasidic Jews in Williamsburg who wear all black from head-to-toe, have big black beards and big black hats, and then CROSS THE STREET AT POORLY LIT INTERSECTIONS AGAINST THE LIGHT!
I have nothing wrong with other peoples' religions or observance thereof. But I'm pretty sure that YHWH didn't say that it's okay for the Chosen People to do dumb shit like play Invisible Pedestrian.
How's this sound: We drivers will obey our laws and pedestrians obey their laws. I keep a good enough lookout for people regardless of religion, race, handicap, or whatever, not to hit them with my car. All I ask is that people cross with the light or if traffic permits, that they keep a lookout for traffic, and that they only cross at the corners.
If people will only cross at the corners then I will only drive on the street.
@OMG! Ponies!: Ugh tell me about it. I once took a nice night ride (with my light of course) and was coming up that stretch of Marcy Ave that comes along from Flushing onto Division, and people pop out of nowhere from between parked cars and everything. Not to mention many like to crawl across corners in their Honda Odysseys at red lights. Sweet fancy Jebus.

Am I the only one after a BTTF DeLorean engine sound?
I'd pay QUADRUPLE for that!
