The Honda 3R-C Concept will make its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show (March 4-14), but it’s already turning heads as yet another fanciful flight of nonsense from Honda. We actually liked the P-NUT, but recognize that it will never see the light of day — as is surely the same fate for the […]
Like the Rinspeed sQuba or Splash, or the even older Gibbs Aquada, the WaterCar is aiming to bring amphibious transportation to the masses.
