It's a snip at $279,000!

People driving in two dimensions for some people is bad enough. Never mind three dimensions.

It was tried in the 1940s. It was a commercial flop. Too expensive for the average driver/pilot.

I thought the idea had been around for a long time.  I was looking forward to those cars that float above the road, sort of flying on a cushion of air.  I replace so many tires!

Bob Cummings flew one of those and that was a long time ago.  As Al stated, it never caught-on.  I think for one to use such a vehicle they would first have to become a pilot.  Secondly, how many could afford one?

Remember the cartoon, The Jetsons?  When I was a kid I thought that would be the way people would navigate in the future.  Hasn't happened yet, but the future is always the future.

I guess if you can ski in a hotel in Dubai, anything is possible with enough money.

I just want one of these,

Flying Car Could Soon Be Yours  Star-wars-landspeeder-hovercraft-1
 so if I get pulled over, I can just say, "This vehicle has not broken any laws; allow it to move along," and the officer will say, "Your vehicle has not broken any laws; move along."
