Stupid question: Why doesn't Porsche offer a 918 clubsport version without the batteries (no e-mode) and without the electronic gimmicks like touch screen, etc.? This car should weight 1400 kg at max and still have the same power.

They could even charge 100k more for it... 

Oh wait: Does somebody have the feeling that something like that is actually possible? 

Somehow, the recent news on the 918 is no big surprise... It was quite obvious from the start that the concept was focused on political correctness and "ecological" aspects - not 100% on performance. The problem is that you cannot sell such a car with such an enormous weight in a situation where competitors offer much more attractive and faster cars Smiley The press reviewers who praise the low fuel consumption don't pay 800k for a sportscar. You need to convince enthusiasts to spend the money. And you can only do this with performance arguments. You need to offer a competitive car - not a car which will be much slower than a P1 or LaFerrari Smiley
