    I LOVE it!
    Have they gone into production? Can they make it amphibious?

    I don't know about amphibious, but I've heard that they are in production. Originally designed as radio controlled, but as you see you can get one that's manually driven.

    Unless someone beats me to it, I'll see if I can dig up more info

    Uncle Al, here's their homepage: http://www.howeandhowe.com/

    and here's a brief article with pics of the updated version: http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2007/11/ri..._as_a_mot.html

    $200,000.00 a wee bit steep for me, but this is "dream vehicles", so I can dream

    Holy! But ranks a 10 on

    I agree--Not in my price range--but, it's a dream machine.
