well i don't know about Porsche never going green, they probably wont in the next few yrs but in the next 50 yrs they probably will. electric cars are becoming more popular (not so much in the US yet) but I went to Ireland/England last yr and every other car is a hybrid.
electric cars can be good sports cars, my brother bought a Tesla when it came out, well it just got dilivered to him recently and its an amazing car, its FAST, handles great and its pretty comfy :-) the only downside i see with it is its about 100k ( but i guess most sports cars are expensive) and you have to plug it in to charge it. I think it takes an hr to charge the battery to be able to drive about 100miles.
point is electric cars can be great sports cars its just that most of us are very closed minded..maybe because when we think hybrid we dont think Tesla Motors, we think about the pirus or something else slow and ugly.
