News Release July 23, 2003
WaterCar Inc. announces its successful completion of their first prototype high performance amphibious vehicle capable of going speeds of 100+ MPH on land and 35+ MPH on water. The fiberglass amphibious vehicle is based on a 2002 Convertible Camero body style. It is powered by a rear mounted high performance 2.5 liter engine capable of producing 300 H.P. along with a Berkeley jet drive and place diverter. Its’ four-wheel independent suspension retracts by a single switch for the water mode operation. The center-mounted removable ski pole along with the wake it creates make it ideal for wakeboarding or skiing. This sporty four-seater makes it possible to drive to the lake, experience an exhilarating boat ride and drive back home again without ever leaving your car. WaterCar, Inc. is looking into the feasibility of producing the car in kit form.
Attached are photos of the amphibious vehicle in action.

Good Lord!! Posted by Camaro_Woody (Member # 1619) on :
I kinda agree with badrag. With those wheels exposed like that, it is way too much drag to go very fast, and in the first picture the wheel well is open just behind the tire to the hull. If it does exist, it is not as fast as I want it to be.

If the boat thing doesn't work out they can always use it for a body kit?
