Going electric isn't cheap. Converting a Porsche 914 to electric motor with controllers and such runs about $15k. There is a guy here locally (Felton, CA) that sells conversion kits with the motor, controller, batteries, et cetera.

I thought an electric 914 would be a fun "next project" but $15k sounded a little steep.

I DO love the sound of a well-tuned exhaust, though. Be hard to give that up.
