Good one! Everyone mourned the death of automotive performance in 1973 (455 SD Trans Ams nonwithstanding); yet we can buy the fastest cars of all time right now in 2010. I personally can't wait to see what the future holds for performance freaks who aren't terrified of life after the carburetor.
2025 supercar performance prediction:
Weight: 1650 lbs
Power: 4 X 75Kw (+- 400 hp combined) electric motors with computer controlled AWD
Torque: 1355 Nm (1000 ft/lbs) at ALL RPM's
0 - 60 mph: <3 seconds
Dual padded roll bars!!
Top speed: Governor limited to 60 mph for your safety.
PS: don't sweat the paint job - by 2025 we'll probably really like
fungus green with
purple stripes.
