Dear Santa,

I want one of these.  Especially this year when we set an all-time record for rain in August.



"A high-speed land and water vehicle drives on the River Thames Wednesday, Sept. 3, 2003. The Aquada is designed to reach speeds of 100mph on land and over 30mph on water and can switch between the two surfaces at the switch of a button. Gibbs Technologies, who designed it, says that no other road-legal amphibian has managed to exceed 6mph on water. (AP Photo/ Stefan Rousseau, PA)"

What does it use for propulsion? Jacuzzi jet nozzles, like on the PBR gun boats?

Kinda looks like a Miata or a convertible Mazda MX-3.

I'm guessing it'll have a guest appearance in the next spy film.

Neato!  Not a first, but maybe updated for the 21st century.
