Oh, no that's normal. Holden brought out a flying car two years ago.

Holden is the name of the Australian arm of General Motors. It and Ford are the two biggest local car manufacturers in Australia. Holden designed the first all-Australian designed and built car in the late 40's, and ever since we have had our own unique GM models, different to any other market aside form those Holden exports cars to - (for example the latest Pontiac GTO is actually a Holden Monaro)
End National Pride, back to thread topic  btw, Holden don't have, nor any plans to have, a flying car

I know! It's a great concept, but I'm starting to doubt they have the financial clout to pull it off.
Mind you, they have started taking orders. They still haven't conducted non-tethered flight tests though, so who knows.
The car has top speed of 365MPH (theoretical - due to tethering they couldn't have actually tested this), fuel consumption 20MPG.
