Default I've decided that in 3 years I will buy an R8.

By that time, I believe the V10's will be out and the ridiculous $50K "market adjustments" will be gone.

This is, of course, assuming that the wife and I don't start having kids. *fingers crossed*

Default Better hope the price of gas isn't like $8.00 /gal by then. This is my fear.....

that gas prices, environmental concerns will mark the end of the high performance gasoline engine before too long.

Default Nothing to fear, it'll be gradual. Besides, there are already bullet fast electric cars out there

in experimental form. That'll only improve with appropriate technology focus.

More likely is a complete crackdown on excessive noise and speeding on public roadways. That's OK too, more tracks will pop up. Mind you, many urban tracks now have the old decibel meter check so perhaps the roar of a Milltek is an endangered species!

Default there's always ethanol.

which is capable of making more power than regular gasoline anyway. even propane isn't too bad.

Buying a 2-seater pretty much guarantees you'll have kids shortly therafter.
