I've always liked the nsx's

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

Why is that?

Is it because you think hybrids can't be performance oriented?  I bet Porsche, Infiniti, Lexus & others would disagree with you.

Have you driven a hybrid lately?

Well, as a hybrid it will probably cost substantially more than if it were straight gas, for one.....

the porsche hybrids only cost about $4k more than their gas-only counterparts... for cars in the $70-100k price range, that's a negligible amount.

Don't own a hybrid or electric but don't fear the eventuality of it at all, especially if the fun factor is kept as an important ingredient.  [thumbsup]

Maybe true, but I remain to be unimpressed until the cost of hybrids over straight gas engines becomes negligible on vehicles mere mortals can afford. We're not there yet.....

Let's take a look at fastest cars in the world..

1. Koenigsegg Agera R (not a hybrid)
2. Veyron SS (not a hybrid)
3. Hennessy Venom GT (not a hybrid)
4. Pruis.. (hybrid)

Sorry I'm not seeing how hybrids are performance oriented.

First of all, this thread is about the upcoming NSX, which IS A HYBRID.

Secondly...this 199mph beast is a hybrid as well.

Nice left coast views about other peoples' money  ;D
I've got over $110k sunk into 2 vehicles, and $4k still matters to me. I'd hardly call it negligible.
