The car that can fly -- or more precisely: the plane you can drive -- has finished initial flight testing, Wired.com reports.
The Terrafugia is the closest anyone has come to marketing a car/plane.
It's still unclear whether this has any practical application. It's going to cost $279,000, but it can only fly as fast as 115 miles per hour, which is pretty slow as far as planes go, but not bad pickup for a car.
