Re: Submarine Car
I dont know how the public market would react to a car like this, what kind of laws/rules they would have to put in place,etc.

Re: Submarine Car
If I'm going under water in anything, I want a think hull between me and that water pressure.

Re: Submarine Car
And where would people drive these cars under water?
Maybe tropical resorts, but thats it! (and I doubt reefs)
