I would absolutely LOVE a modern, EFI car with ZERO power accessories. No P/S, P/B, A/C, P/W.....nuthin. Nuthin but modern motor, drive train and brakes. Stripped down and light as can be. They could even do the plain steel wheel thing with chrome lug nuts. Wouldn't that be cool? I KNOW I am not the only one.

That would be great if they could. The new cars are getting too complicated for the sake of being complicated. Heres the effed up thing though, even base models have electric windows and electric locks as std equipment now. When i bought my DD back in 08 a chevy hhr the window sticker showed no extra options it was a base LS 5 speed with 2.2. It still had power windows, brakes, locks, A/C and power steering.

I am not sure that power windows and power locks these days add that much weight anymore, and my HHR has electric assist power steering, so that saves some draw off the engine.

But yeah, a stripper coupe would be nice if it could be done. I dont think they will though, most people want all the amenities, and convienences. They are used to it.
