I've been arguing this point from day one. I also agree that that 540-550 horse is pretty easy considering the facts that were state. I won't complain though - if I have to bolt a S/C to the car I will. Hey - you can't please everyone and that's what the aftermarket is all about How long are cars like these going to last though? Seriously. I'm sure people who love these cars and have the $$$ will continue to buy but I wonder if the perception of the public will have an influence on the manufacturer to either make or not make a car like this in the near future. I, personally, don't really think many people are willing to pay more for a hybrid car because it's good for the enviornment; only to save gas, for the most part. It's not like they're cheaper than, say, a Yaris, or something. Anyways, I wonder how long we're going to see cars like this grace our automotive options.
