I have been waiting for this for a long time. And it seems that the day where we have flying cars is getting closer. The flying cars are a product of Terrafugia and are the brainchild of some really smart folks from MIT.

Terrafugia was founded in 2006 by award-winning MIT-trained aeronautical engineers and MBA’s – who also happen to be passionate private pilots. The company’s mission is to provide innovative solutions to the challenges facing personal aviation. The result: the Transition® Roadable Aircraft.

Once we get this figured out, can someone please make some hoverboards and jet packs for the public?

    I hear you, ACE. Like, can this shit take off in rush hour traffic? I just don’t see the purpose.

    The aesthetics are wack…but its still a flying car! The design element can be messed with…and some Jetsons type look can be done (I hope)…but its still a flying car
