I like a lot. Why would I care about an oligarchs flying car that is sure to cause a lot of deaths? lol

Why would it cause a lot of deaths? It's never going to be used on the road, hell, it's probably never going to be used with a human passenger inside period. Tesla didn't even put their own people in it for the controlled demo they created and I'm sure put a ton of time and attempts into making sure it would work. I feel pretty confident saying there won't ever be a human passenger that goes for a kick flip in a roadster.

I really hope so. Even so, what's so cool about a car that can 'fly' but will never be used? The engeneering feat is crazy but the car itself?

You just said, the engineering feat. It's not cool because it's practical, or even a real product. It's cool because it's a car that drove up a wall, went upside down, and then flipped mid air to land on its wheels. It's cool cuz it did a barrel roll over a semi. The fact that those things happened at all no matter the circumstances or caveats is insane.
