Rather than investing in a new suspension set at Canadian Tire to keep your car ride smooth, you should put your savings toward the Chase 2053.

With the ability to [run on both land and air](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-walkers), the Chase 2053 is built from [carbon nanotubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2027-bentley-continental-gt-supersports), making it impervious to pretty much any kind of damage. Designer Thomas Larson Roed also gave the Chase 2053 a brand new [slush hydrogen engine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nebula-next), helping you say goodbye to emissions. I just hope the Chase 2053 comes in 2013.
