The Flying Car - Travelling Redefined

Let it be Rolls Royce, Mercedes Benz, BMW, or Ferrari, nothing will avoid you from jamming into traffic on the road. Things will not be the same a couple few years from now, at least for them who have $ to burn.

A Boston-based company Terragugia Transition is planning to unveil the dual-purpose car-cum-plane vehicle called The Flying Car in 2011. This is a 2-seater vehicle which can let you fly if you wish, and if you want to travel on the road it will fold its wings in 30 seconds after touching the road. The Flying Car can travel up to 725 km in the air at a speed of more than 115 km per hour, fuelled by gasoline. Moreover, it can accommodate in your conventional car garage.

Its initial cost is expected to be around $200,000 (1 crore Rupees). Think its too costly?, not at all for guys who can afford Rolls Royces and Ferraris. Moreover, the company claims to have an order for 60 cars and more in the pipeline. So, guys get one and ready to rule the sky.
