Now this is some seriously crazy stuff. This Toyota MR2 has been fitted with a turbine propelsion system. No, not turbo turbines but jet turbines! Thrust is powered by twin GE T-58 turbines, coupled with 4 fuel tanks, power steering, power brakes and a whole lot of security features like fire supression and roll-over protection.
The seller says the car originally did not have the wing to provide downforce and it wanted to take off at 225km/h but after adding the wings it stayed solid on the ground until 300km/h.
Naturally the car goes forward only. No reverse gear available. LOL!
Sounds crazy doesn’t it?
Check out the Ebay auction here. The auction has ended and it was sold for US $20,100.00.

where is the new owner gonna test-run the 'car'?
Erm, is this car gonna be faster than the 1000hp bugati???
walau eh…. that car is no way can test it unles it had to build a special track for that car…. but …
if you remove the down force wind fin…. then add a pair of wing at both side at taht car ( the best place at door) then add two fin at bonet…
ha… ha.. ha..
do you think what's happen next if that driver hit on that pedal?
i think will need to do 1 and half year course at the malaysian flying academy to get license first… hehe
my question is, why buy a "plane" which doesn't fly? :p
haha.. i think he's got too much batman influence in him… anyway i respect him for the effort he has made to the car.. i mean, alang-alang why not make the car fly..? swt.. LOL. any video of the car on the move?
What? Wasting money and resources only.
bad idea.. please.. don't try this in your car.
