From Yahoo the Terrafugia Transition, is pretty much a transformer. Its a car with gas, brake, and steering wheel, and a plane with the joystick and the lever. Car transforms into a "light aircraft" and has been approved by the FAA. Will cost around 194K...

its not rice its stock haha... i think this is pretty sick... just imagine getting from SD to LA in half the time and without traffic... no need to park your car at the airport anymore just fly it. it would be beneficial in many ways IMO

imagine having to drive it to the airport, stress about being there on time, waiting for your turn on the runway, the cost of fuel, waiting for your turn to land...

It's cheaper than all the other concepts over the years.
