    I think what will happen is the full awesome version will be released but will be illegal to drive on the street everywhere except some place like Dubai, and even then only outside cites. The normal version will have everything stripped by the NTSB, and will end up just a fast electric sports car.

      The thruster ones will cost millions each if they ever do come out. Probably need jet fuel to run.
