    It just looks so out of place on both the water and on the road. You would think that they would make it look good on one of the two surfaces.
    The only reason this would be cool is to see the reaction of people when you barrel into a body of water. Everyone would think you're an idiot and that you would flood your engine, but you'd merely laugh in their faces and gun it :)

    I almost want to buy one of these just to be able to rob a bank. Think about it; you're in a high-speed pursuit. You drive on by your favorite boat dock, and you zoom off into the ocean, evading the cops and making off with the money. And all this as they drive into the water GTA-style.

    Ahh. :)

    It's cool that it functions so well but it's too bad that it looks so ugly and the video was just tacky.

    Innovative to say the least however their advertising/marketing campaign doesn't make a splash with me.

    Or.... I could get a Corvette ZR1 for the land and a 50ft yacht for water at the same price. What to do? What to do?
