Gibbs, a UK-based company, is responsible for this bad ass, amphibious vehicle. It resembles a humvee but, differentiates itself quickly by going 100 mph on land and then, with the push of a button, planing across the waves at 40 mph. I bet licensing and permiting is a nightmare.

The Humdinga transforms from land to water mode at a touch of a button. The wheels retract, the power train switches from the wheels to a jet propulsion system and the vehicle is in amphibious mode. In just a few seconds the driver is planing at a speed of forty miles per hour. (gibbstech)

Bring one to the US, looks like fun. Import to America & Canada. Great for SAR & 007. Neat.
