I thought we were done beating the dead horse of flying cars.

Drunk drivers in these are likely to cause another 9/11 out of incompetence

Every 3-4 years, for at least the last 25 years, the WSJ has run a story like this where someone has finally solved all the problems of flying cars. Lots of people throw money at them; nothing ever happens. If you give two seconds of thought to the horror that would result with thousands of people rising into the air every morning to make their commute, you'd realize how absurd this notion is.

With how regulated small drones are I imagine a flying car would be a nightmare to regulate. Also if you thought car crashes were a problem now wait till one crashes into the ceiling of a house or gets shot down over a military base.

Hey guys... Did your article only have renderings and no actual footage of thule "flying car"?

Also ending your article begging for speculative pre-order deposits and a promised production date within 2 years with "backed by a tesla investor" isn't the trust builder that you think it is...

Am I the only one saying "FINALLY!!!" about those premium tier pre-order deposit for extra special double secret important people? We can lose money SO much faster now!!!

Why does it have a SpaceX logo on it? This is not associated with SpaceX in any way?
