The Things You Find On eBay: Skycar

By Ty Tribble on October 10, 2006 in Ideas

Once again eBay is selling an item you won’t see in your average retail store or car lot. Davis based Moller International Inc. has developed a flying car. The Moller M400X Skycar is up for sale on eBay with an opening bid of $1 million.
The Skycar takes off and lands vertically. Two engines keep the craft running. Engineers conducting tests on the Skycar use methanol fuel but say the craft can also run on 87 grade gasoline.
Developer Paul Moller hopes by auctioning off the M400X he’ll raise capital for the company. The proceeds of the auction will go toward funding more tests on the prototype to take air/road travel to the next level.
