I'd rather go 0-60 in six seconds than four

Wise man! It's all in how you look at it.

When the journey is fun, why would you want to get there faster?

So you're trying to tell me that the guys in the Prius are having all the fun? Um, what's the plural of Prius? Priui?

Only if they've got a low fun standard. Or would that be considered a low fun tolerance?

Sorry I wasn't clearer, Gorgon. I was referring only to journeys taken in our Vettes. :L

I find it hard to believe that anyone driving some eco-hair-shirt-I-care-more-about-the-Earth-than-you-do-environment-friendly inverted bed pan is actually having 'fun.' You may find THIS ARTICLE from this past June on the Honda Insight Hybrid an interesting read- it's the first article from the perspective of someone who likes performance motoring on what one of these hybrids is actually like to drive. I promise, it will make you laugh.

Now, if the question is a two second difference on 0-60 times, and the answer is the two seconds is worth it for the fun, I submit for those folks disadvantaged by being two seconds quicker they should take the fun to the next level: zero to one hundred.

Ahhh... the Insight fails to incite a favorable response. Whodda thunk it.

zero to one hundred is one option... how about 0-60 TWICE!! or even three times!!!otfl
