Has anyone seen a folding bike that looks like a regular
road bike? I would like a folding bicycle that I could do
double duty. As a road bike and that can fit in my trunk.

You don't state what your budget is but Bilenky makes
some excellent bikes and have most of their models
available in "travel" packages which use S&S couplers and
even include the case.
I don't own one yet but it's definitely on the "must have
before I die" list.

=v= Well, you can take (or make) a regular ol' road bike and
throw a hinge in the middle, S&S couplers or something.
=v= If you want a bike that folds better and still *rides*
like a road bike (though doesn't quite look like one), I'd
recommend a Bike Friday:

as someone who owns an S&S coupled bike keep in mind
that even if you get good at it breaking down and
putting together an S&S bike is not something you want
to do all that frequently. if you plan on doing it as
part of your commute for instance or even weekly get a
proper folding bike.

Was that you, a slim guy in a silver aero pot on a
BikeFriday towing a trailer, in the NYC BikeTV segment on
the New York folders ride?
We had a bike film night and there were some clips from the
2003 ride.

=v= Indeed it was. Here's a still photo from that same ride:
New trailer, but the same bike I had in Vancouver. <_Jym_
