Driving has to be an event and silent drive isn't exciting enough for me, having said that I am a Tesla fan, would make a good grocery getter.

Have you ever driven a really fast/quick car that was silent? I personally think the experience of high speed/acceleration with a very quiet car is pretty awesome. There is something very cool about being able to feel the speed and not hear it, so to say. I like just the noise of the wind and the road.. Might not be better that a good sounding exhaust, but I don't think it's necessarily any worse. Just different. Not that it exists yet, but I would love to feel Aventador acceleration without exhaust noise.

 

That said, I almost never drag race and so this test isn't anything special to me. The fun part for me is the change in speed and direction, not launching. I'd say 99% of my driving is already above 30mph.

While i agree, a fantastic exhaust note makes so much of a great drive,

 

but that said an electric car (we have one at work, only a little city car though) has a very different feel, i can only a tesla roadster or this type S, despite not having a great exhaust note deliveres a different kind of sensation and novelty, which in turn still makes for an event to drive.

 

i think the solution is to have a fleet of cars all different.
