If you work in the city in 25-30 years from now then it wont matter because it will be mainstream if its safe and what not. Really not getting laid? No offense but I can find an easy chick every time I step out. They are every where. Even easier they are at Bars/Clubs.
This car will not "free" you from the city as it depends on rail. Rail transportation still requires more compact, urban development to be feasible. Having to spread out from rail lines will still mean massive traffic and you won't get a view of the countryside. You'll still get views of the next development phase in your housing project.
