All I gotta say is that some automotive designer has been watching too much James Bond in The Spy Who Loved Me.

Heheh. You'd probably have to drain the fish out with every drive. Reminds me of that scene from the Tom Cruise movie Risky Business where they pull his father's new Porsche from the water. The detective asks: "Who's the U-Boat commander?" :p

This car can dive to 30' and cost one point five million dollars ...

But there is only one ...

Anybody want to go in together on the first production line car/boat/submarine they make?
