Check out this spiffy article: http://www.wired.com/autopia/2009/10...npu=1&mbid=yhp

Those are some mighty nice water wheels. Haha. It made me laugh. The concept of a land and water vehicle has been around for a good while, in fact they do exist, but this is the first time I've heard of a sport-car-boat. And it certainly has a sports car price tag.

Man, imagine the strange looks you'd get crusing this around in any large body of water XD I've love to ride in one, but I'd rather not own one. As my dad says, boats are a hole in the ocean you throw money in. So even if it can go on land, I can get a nice looking car for WAY cheaper.

What are your thoughts on it? Would you want to own one?

Wow..that's interesting, yet really random. It's great how far technology is going. Probably costs a ridiculous amount though.

Hah! I saw that, or at least a car like that on Daily Planet. Seems cool but I don't know how I'd feel about taking it into the water here, haha. I'd just drive it around since the ocean is too cold for me, even in the summer.

I doubt such an invention would become popular. I mean, it may be a 2-in-one vehicle but how long would it last? Its fairly new so I imagine a bunch of problems with it. Now a hover vehicle is what I'd like to see LOL

Hey, they're coming out with a Space hotel (seriously, they're building a hotel in space) around 2012. Flying cars can't be too far behind. Haha

Cool, I've seen this before. Yes, it does rule. I would love to own one, but even if I was rich, it would be lower on my list of priorities. To buy, to maintain, to insure, yeah, I'm not sure.

lmao now that is awesome! Oh, I remember a few months ago someone told me a man got a DUI ticket for driving a car/lawnmower drunk. XD I think he also said the old guy was naked or in his underwear or something. Ah, people these days.

I wonder if they still have to wear seatbelts when driving in the water. Really cool idea though.
