Which would you choose if you had the choice

[Joe 1320]

Given the choice of a 400 HP V8 in a sleek body style......

or a fully electric powerplant with the same power output.

the price is equal, the rest of the car is indentical..... which would you choose and why?

[Jeff 97SS]

I've had powerful gas powered vehicles my whole life, as I'm sure we've all had here. I'm ready to try something different, plus fuel isn't probably gonna get any cheaper. So I voted electric.

[Trash man]

ill take gas, im still young and dumb, and i cant get enough of a v8 rumble, how do u get a electric motor to rumble?

[FroSSty]

Electric all the way...Something about that drag bike posted a while back that got me.

[Black97]

Electric these days, but I would miss the rumble.

[msfyter]

Electric......Full power right off the line , no going to redline

[ConElite]

Eletric - 100% torque in a split second. No lag.

[Steel2686]

I love torque more than HP, so I went with electric.

Plus how cool would it be rolling up to someone in a Mustang with his Flowmaster exhaust and your car isn't even making a sound... Then leaving him at the line.

Both!!!!!!

[Joe 1320]

I vote for monster electric torque, all wheel drive and enough power to take down all but the most expensive exotics.

The instant toque of an electric is brutal!

you put a vibrator under your seat and wire it to your gas pedal.

This was a hard one for me, since I have never owned a V8. Not to mention, I have coveted V8's for as long as I have been driving. I got close with my V-6, but still want the Rumble that was mentioned earlier. However, considering that my car...no matter what it is, is going to be my daily driver. And the fact that I drive close to 60 miles/day, I had to go with the electric. It would be very cool to have all that performance and to not have to pony up the $45 twice a week to keep rolling.

[Christopherrr]

Called me old fashioned...but I'll take mine in gas combusting, ground rumbling, ear shattering old v8 glory.

Electric just doesn't do it for me...I know it's the way of the future, but I'll hold on as long as I can.
