Thank you, Science!

Ok, so the first decade of the 21st century is already behind us, and still where are the jetpacks? Where are the flying cars?

Well, sure you can see a flying car at every Blazers‘ game, but not to spoil the illusion, it’s really just a balloon.

Now, however, science and COFFEE comes to the rescue. Well, not in the jetpack or flying car sense, but to the rescue of 21st century technological disappointments. It’s the Car-puccino!

Sure it costs 25-50 times more to run than a standard gasoline-powered car, but really that’s just nitpicking. Here you have a car that runs on coffee, better still, you have  a 1988 Volkswagen  Scirocco  that runs on coffee! Not only is that awesome in and of itself, but how can you take even one look at that mean machine and not immediately think of Doc Brown and Marty McFly’s conversation?

Marty McFly: Wait a minute, Doc. Ah… Are you telling me that you built a time machine… out of a DeLorean?
Dr. Emmett Brown: The way I see it, if you’re gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style?

So kudos to you, British Broadcasting and your ever-clever Bang Goes the Theory. You have truly embodied the spirit of the future that all of us living in the year 2010 demand!
