Check it out...This is about the coolest thing I've ever seen. Wonder what Mr. Policeman would think if I drove my Mark II on the road with the wings folded back.

You guys have probably seen this, but I can't believe they're actually taking orders. It sure would make my 90-mile one-way work commute trip a whole lot more enjoyable.
Anybody got 150,000 bucks I could borrow? |
Looks like the estimated purchase price of this "roadable aircraft" went up to almost 200,000 since it actually flies. Check it out:

Maybe so, but I love the idea of it. The real Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car was much cooler (but I may be a little biased since I loved that movie as a kid).
Striking similarity in the two pictures here? Could Miss P'fer be a distant cousin?
