Wanna be a baller, shot caller, otherwise known as a Campus Socialite? Then you need to be the one with the hottest and coolest toys and the most innovative gadgets. Well the video after the jump absolutely takes the cake as your ultimate shortcut to baller status. We all knew the Jetsons were on to something when decades ago they starred in a TV show about flying cars. Now in 2010, that myth has come closer to becoming a reality. The aircraft ‘Terrafugia Transition’, which requires a 1,700-feet runway to take off, will be the smallest aeroplane with a maximum weight of 1,320 lb and the US Federal Aviation Administration has given the green light to commercial production of the aircraft. One of the big advantages to this aircraft Terrafugia is that during bad weather, the car can just touch down and drive the rest of the way to the destination. Imagine what Xzibit could have done with this baby on Pimp My Ride.
The Terrafugia’s cruising speed in the air is 115 mph (185 kph) with a range of 460 miles (735 km) , and it can carry up to 450 lb. Light sport aircraft licenses require just 20 hours’ flying time, making them much easier to obtain than full private licences. According to the company, 70 people have already booked the car, with a deposit of $10,000 each. The car/plane is expected to cost $194,000.
