It will not be too far in the future.

So, if you plan to keep your car for a while, paint it whatever color you want to and enjoy it. If you plan to sell it then do whatever you can cost justify to increase the sales price, and then sell it while you can get a return on the investment.
I TOTALLY disagree with you. Electric and AI cars are not real cars, but appliances dictated by a nanny state attitude that is now how people feel about cars.

When we have more and more of this CRAP on our roads the value of REAL cars will go up. Cars that are light, simple, well engineered and built and FUN to DRIVE.......yes DRIVE..... cars are supposed to be driven and supposed to be fun to drive!!! Is that a revelation???

Early 911s and P cars in general are real cars......

I am betting that people will rebel against these crappy non-cars and just not buy them.

Outside of CA, electric car sales stink.
