Ya know, since the line extends from "historic" Granville Island, to/thru/nearby historic Chinatown and historic Gastown as well as the downtown loop, I wouldn't mind seeing a mix of some historic streetcars as well as modern streetcars.
Modern streetcars are too "cookie cutter" and sterile and besides older/historic streetcars adds some character to the ride both inside and out, which can attract additional tourist ridership through that relatively confined area.
