They don't need to be that expensive. Allow people to opt into lower safety standards (you are comparing with a motorcycle after all) and add a carbon tax with a threshold so I can pay for less complicated emissions equipment.

Also, the loud sound != big. V8 != Loud, esp when many v6 motors are close in displacement to Ford's 5 liter V8.
