Old concept car=hot!
I was watching the history channel, modern marvels and they had concept cars on.
These are concept cars called firebird 1, 2, and 3 It looks and is driven just like a jet, using a turbine engine. 15 miles per gallon, i think like 300 somthin hp, it took too long to rev the engine, and the turbine was designed for constant high speeds, so it never was mass produced so here are the cars.
Firebird 1. First design,

Firebird 2, family of 4 car
Fire bird 3, titanium body if i'm not mistaken

No, doesn't fly, but it was designed in the 50's, when people dreamed of space travel and flying cars, the firebirds were designed in the dream car era

actually 818, if you know why I was banned you could tell me, because onesikpup couldn't find out, and if you know what I said or did, it would be a lot of help.

they weren't safe, that's why never mass produced. The exhaust could actually burn the pavement *leave a mark*. it was a lot like a jet, it had flaps for turning and braking, but had actual brakes.
