My Car: Package: Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 0 | I want my Prius to have a sound effect on the outside when it's in stealth mode. You know, to avoid sneaking up on pedestrians, etc. But not just any sound effect- I want the sound George Jetson's car makes. I think people would just collapse laughing when confronted with a Prius playing that sound while gliding around a parking lot! |

rather than a 5 speed which is old tech and rather anti HSD what about an economy/sports mode and/or simulated 6 speed sequential transmission where downshifting increases regen like light braking, and up shift boosts engine RPM by a few hundred over ultimate economy, with sports seating and 5 point harness, lower suspension, handling option 2 mode suspension geometry. When in Sports mode the ICE would fire as soon as the foot came off the brake pedal when stationary ready for quick launch and traction control would allow some wheel spin and would be far less aggressive or quicker to power back up. Also sports mode allows speed limiting to run the car up to 125mph slightly over speeding MG2. | |
