I believe that a Canadian engineer and physicist, Geoffrey Ballard originated this as part of the discoveries researched by his company 'Ballard Power Systems' in the early 80's. He is now dead and his company has expanded and gone public.
it squirts hydrogen throgh a fuel cell to make electricity to power the car

A fuel cell car would be defined as a vehicle with an electric motor or engine that uses a fuel cell to produce electricity to power its motor with hydrogen.

Karl Benz was the man who invented the first fuel-powered car in 1885
Neither car is available and most likely will not be for some time, if ever. Fuel cell technology is probably closer to a reality. The major disadvantage is that they produce no fuel savings and are not a positive for our environment. Hydrogen is derived by stripping it from natural gas. The net result is that we use fossil fuel to power the fuel cell car.

Advantages are very low emissions. Disadvantage is rarity of hydrogen fuel stations.
Hydrogen fuel cell cars seem to be the wave of the future. This website gives you links to all of the dealers with available hydrogen fuel cell cars: http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/fcv_links.shtml
