The $200,000 WaterCar is the
lovechild of a Corvette that fell in
love with a cigarette boat. But, like having chat with a
mermaid, everyone will tell you it was just a manatee.
Get a Corvette engine, rig it up with a Dominator Jet drive, and then strap it
into a floating car, and you get the WaterCar Python, the fastest and
highest-performing amphibious vehicle in the world. If zipping over the water at
a top speed of 60mph doesn't float your boat, it'll accelerate on land at a
neck-snapping 0-to-60 speed of a mere 4.5 seconds.
Call me old fashioned, but I like all my vehicles single-purpose. If it drives
on the road, I don't want it in the ocean or sky. I mean, that's just more stuff
to go wrong. And wrong, my friends, is the opposite of right. And two Wrights
made an airplane. ZING! Thanks for that one, dad.
Hit the jump for several more shots and a video of the thing in action
(worthwhile stuff starts at 0:50).
