There's no mistaking the Foursixteen for anything but an electric, but the modifications made to the Tesla Motors [NSDQ:TSLA] sedan allow it to give off a high-pitched, banshee-like shriek when the pedal is floored. Among the modifications is a beefed up transmission with an all-new 11.39:1 final gear ratio for quicker acceleration, which helps to explain the new sound.Saleen is yet to reveal performance numbers for the Foursixteen, although the company is confident it will turn in better figures than those of the range-topping P85 version of the Model S—both for acceleration and range.
Pricing starts at $152,000 for the complete car, before any state and federal electric car incentives are factored in. The price also includes a four-year/50,000 mile warranty.

The electric Harley prototype sounds just like this. I really really like that sound.
