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.

Great point. Instead of everyone on Ford/Mopar/GM forums bitching and moaning about each others car and arguing about tenths of a second,we should be excited and embrace these cars,flaws and all. C'mon,a 500HP Mustang,a 425HP Challenger and a 422HP SS................when i was in high school,300HP was a HUGE deal and now look at what we have. The GT hits 60 in 5 flat, a V6 Camaro has 300HP,there is not a dog in the bunch,we are living in the best pony car era ever. In the age of a Prius being a celebrity car,we should all be excited that Ford makes a 540HP GT500 or that you can get a 422HP Camaro for 30K. This isn't going to last forever.
