ICE production cars you wish were electric and perform like a Tesla

[sprediletto]

I was driving next to an Acura NSX and thought it would make a perfect BEV. The car has a timeless design. What ICE production cars do you wish were fully electric with all the performance we enjoy from Tesla?

[GSP]

Bently Continential Flying Spur
Porsche 911
Chevrolet Volt (as a 200 mile EV)

One of each with Tesla performance would make a nice fleet.

Porsche Cayman... Lotus Evora...

And some small sleeper family sedans like BMW 3, Honda Civic, Chevy Cruze.

Are you thinking seriously about conversions, or just dreaming?

Are you thinking seriously about conversions, or just dreaming?

Just dreaming of a perfect world where the roads are well made, traffic police wave to you as you zoom by at 125mph and the weather is always 70 degrees and sunny. Oh look, a puppy. I have no desire to convert but think the NSX & Roadster share some DNA. Additionally, I think a BEV Porsche 911, Toyota Supra (Mark IV) and McLaren F1 (love the 3 seat setup) would be pretty cool.

Well of course I'd like all cars to be EVs and perform like a Tesla. That said, I've seen some sub-par conversions that ruined a perfectly good sportscar.
