Playback recordings are a facsimile. Even in my '08 1.6L Swift Sport I can very well hear and feel the exhaust pipe through the floor as it responds to various throttle inputs.
Haptic feedback is just as important to me as the sound, and is part of what makes a car feel alive, playful, and eager. IOW, fun.
I'm totally not against electric cars, but it just seems wrong to me to make them appear like what they're not (i.e IC engines). I'd rather enjoy a Tesla Roadster in its brisk silence than with any added artefact, especially one trying to mimic an ancient, physically unrelated technology.

- smcl 12y agoIt's becoming annoyingly common ("earth porn" for pictures of nature, etc). Your use of "Jings" however has brightened up my day. Crivvens!
- nmeofthestate 12y agoIndeed, but that is (still) surely 'figuratively porn'. Call me a traditionalist, but 'literally porn' is for getting people turned on sexually.
- JetSpiegel 12y agoThat kind of wording has been polluted, as opposed to Jings, which I've literally heard for the first time.
