From a 60's or 70's comedy routine "Speaker? The _whole_ _house_ is a
speaker."
I'm sure there are kids in LA that have the creativity to help
Ferrari/Porsche/Lamborghini solve their problem--which is to project
the sound that the geezers who buy their cars like to hear, in hopes
that it will restore their lost er, ah, youth, and feed their
pedophilic fantasies.

Porsche make soft-roaders. As long as there is a market with more than it's
fair share of cashed up ignorant wankers, manufacturers will tool up to
cater to it.
Your point is?

There is nothing wrong with hybrid cars.
There is a lot wrong with the outrageous claims made by the wankers
that were stupid enough to buy one.
