    Slightly different topic, but I can’t wait for vroom sound to fuck off. Every single night, I have jackasses making their big, strong, manly, vroom vroom sounds by my apartment, and doing wheelspins. Can’t wait for that to be taken away over the next 20-ish years by cars simply not making that noise, and being electronically incapable of making wheelspins.

      Yea let’s punish everybody because you have shitty neighbours, instead of punishing the shitty neighbours…

        we used this logic on smoking and it’s working pretty damn well so far.

        I said nothing about punishing anyone. It’s just the natural way this is going to go. In 20 years, you won’t see a lot of ICE cars, therefore, you won’t hear a lot of annoying car noises.

          I’d fucking better still be able to do a burnout you’re describing dystopia. Electric cars can easily produce burnout torque, give me the impression of shifting and I’m all in. The simplicity of electric driving bores me until I’m driving like an absolute bogan, downshifting and punching the throttle in my 5spd Forester is way more fun at 30mph than going 120 in a straight line.
