That's a bit of an empty comparison, isn't it?

You could keep converting the chemical energy in a potato into power, and after 2000 potatoes you'd have produced the same power as a Ferrari V8 engine does in an hour, but it doesn't really have the same roar, does it? Even if you account for flatulence.
