There are lots of fairly standard high end cars that go for more money than that. So the potential is quite high for these to sell well

That's horrifying to think about. Most people seem to barely be able to handle 2 dimensions while driving a car.

Yeah no kidding...

A high end luxury car has a lot more utility than this thing. This is more like a $200k atv or snowmobile (ie, a very expensive toy)

That seems to make sense and maybe most people will think that and this will stay niche. However I can see a legitimate use case of skipping traffic in a large city which gives significant utility. Also many people own expensive toys like toyhaulers and Canam Mavericks which come out over $200k in total. What I'm saying is I really won't be surprised if these get incredibly popular.
