I can only imagine what the vendors at the 2015 SEMA show will be hawking for non-standard electric car noises.

Maybe they'll include these sounds in a special offering for airport taxis:

I am thinking either....

1. "Ice cream truck" music. But this might cause accidents however if you have a string of kids chasing you down the street.

2. "Pop goes the weasel" song. At intersections everyone will watch to see what will happen when you get to the "pop" part. Will confetti or fireworks shoot out of a suddenly opened sunroof? Will the driver be ejected?

Money can't buy happiness, but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Porsche than a Kia.
