Audi Calamaro: Hottest flying car you've ever seen

Audi_Calamaro_Concept.jpg

Most concept cars are relatively unrealistic. Heck, they're just concepts, they don't have to be realistic. But this Audi Calamaro concept really takes things to the next level. For one, it's a flying car. No wheels here. Yeah, you could say it's futuristic.

It certainly is slick-looking though, isn't it? If we lived in a magical fantasy land in which this thing would be anything other than a shiny lawn ornament, I would definitely take it for a test drive. Although I have a hunch that even if it flew, it just wouldn't be practical enough. I mean, where's the trunk?

I'll throw a third on that one. That's a pretty blatant rip off.

is there a pre-order option for this?

Here's a question: what's it land on? If you touched down as is, it'd roll over!

Trunk's in the front on top, it appears.

Looks like it is almost George Jetson time!

If the parking zone is created using powerful magnets to keep this car floating when is not flying .. this can be a fesable car :D

Okay, time to expose myself for the "Star Wars" übergeek that I am: it's actually much closer in design to the Geonosian Starfighter. And in my experience, Audi drivers are mostly speed-freak jerks, anyway. Call me when they make a flying Mustang.

How many cup holders does it have?

I'll wait until Volkswagon come out with a cheaper one.

Since its an Audi, my only question is: how much will it cost to replace the transmission when it goes out?
