-What kind of oil you will need to put in it
-What colors will it come in
-Even if it will include an option for a flux capacitor

Nah, by 2016 everything will run with a micro reactor all self contained, all that it does is make steam to power the engine. Will run non-stop with out refuel for 30 years. Then you have to change the reactor module. No maintenance required.

You will have to add water.

Gee guy's that's only 9 years away, how old are you all since you don't show your date of birth in your profile. I sure hope I'm still here in 2016, I think. I wish I only had one regret like you Lil Trucker, I unfortunately have many, but I don't regret marrying either of my two wives, my only regret is that I managed to lose them both.

You forgot to add that there will not be a tranny to shift anymore, that they will be a Constant Velocity drive, controlled by the flux capacitor
Will that 'Flux Capacitor' come in chrome or will we need to put a chrome cover on it??
