Right out of the Jetsons !!
Are you an ultra-rich tech enthusiast with a hankering to own a piece of aero-automobile history? Moller International is now offering its M200X, the first flying car of its kind, up for sale on that veritable auction house of luxury, eBay. The M200X is a 2-passenger Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) vehicle that has completed over 200 manned and unmanned flight demonstrations since 1989. Currently, bids are up to $18,888... but the reserve hasn't been met yet so you still have a chance to swoop in and snatch it up.
Currently at $19,600 ! Get your hovercraft while its red hot !
I wonder what fuel it runs on and what kind of MPG it gets.......
The key to the ease with which the M200X could be flown was the use of a number of unique engines controlled by a central electronic computer and sensor module. The engines received computer commands every few milliseconds that told each engine what to do to keep the M200X stable no matter what environment it was operating in.

Groove if you add the tag "UFO" this story will appear in the UFO feature channel.

Wouldn't that be a bit of a "Go-Cart" to you ?
