It's over guys. Time to come up with a new yardstick. I think the cool "hot rods" of the next 20 years will either be radically custom, or perhaps various examples of electric retrofit on something classic. Bragging rights will come with range, rather than power output.

In the early 80's they tried to convince us power was passe, mileage was the new standard.
Adrenalin is hard to beat, and shutting down cylinders is so 80's Cadillac.
Of course I don't want a 12 second minivan either, but power won't be out of fashion in my lifetime.
