check out the videos..it has already proven itself in test. Though, it's using a "rotory" motor..let's hope it's not like the Mazda RX7 or Renesis platforms

or they will be dropping from the sky after 30,000 miles!!

Looks cool, but I doubt we'll see it used in society within our lifetime. Sure, flying's all fine and dandy when it's just you in the sky, but can you imagine a sky full of interstate travel? I'd be afraid to step out of my house... heck, I'd be afraid to be in my house as well!

That car has been under development since the 80's. It looks cool but will never be practical.

The other issue is the people driving it. People can barely drive on the ground, think about putting them in the air moving in 3D. Scary
