They have closed in the US and haven't made any progress in over a decade


* [[http://www.terrafugia.com/ This lot]] look like they might be close to actually selling [[Franchise/{{Transformers}} transforming]] flying cars commercially. Hope you have $200,000 on you, though.

One of the central design aspects of the Shadowrun universe that makes it different from many future settings is that there are no flying cars. There are aircraft that can be afforded by a starting character (and it doesn't require a friendly GM, the rules allow starting characters to start with 450,000 nuyen), but the only ones that cost around half that are traditional rotor aircraft. There is a VTOL personal tilt wing aircraft that costs 300,000 Nuyen, but none of these would be classified as "flying cars."


* ''TabletopGame/{{Shadowrun}}'' has a selection of hovercars in addition to normal cars, helicopters, and airplanes. The really fun thing is that if you have a reasonable DM, it is possible to afford a hovercar at character creation (it will eat up around half your cash, though)
