Lost His Marbles? Elon Musk Claims New Roadster Will Have Space-X Thrusters

Elon Musk has been making some crazy claims about the next generation Tesla Roadster, but now he is topping them off with a claim that it will actually be able to hover over the ground.

When first unveiling the vehicle, Musk claimed a list of insanely impressive specs for the new Roadster, including 0-60 mph in 1.9 sec, 620-mile of range, and more.

Musk has been teasing those specs as the “base specs” and other versions could be even crazier.

Cooler than a Jag E Type?
Cooler than a boat-tail Sting Ray?
With that generic styling?

A car with jet thrusters that can hover? Hell yes it's cooler than the E type and sting ray (although both are awesome cars also).

Ah crazy but a genius never the less. Like it or not. Crazy or not he has changed the automotive landscape forever. Previously he pioneered with EBAY. Now its Spacex. You cannot ignore his accomplishments. maybe you have to be a little bit wacko to get some serious things accomplished.
