I also don't recall seeing the flying car, although it's been some time since I saw that episode and at the time it wouldn't have struck me anyway given that I was being introduced to the verse.
Yes, exactly—right at the start of the first episode, we had no expectations yet about what would or wouldn't be in the 'verse.
It was only when I was re-watching after seeing the whole two seasons that the flying car suddenly stood out, like "What WAS that?"
I guess that was an early hint that there was something weird going on with Reggie, in terms of his technology level versus everybody else's! (Also see: his robot nanny, his uplifted chimpanzee servant, and the fact that he sent his son to live on a private moon base, I guess!)
