Awwwww yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
The Auburn Speedster (1935–37), and the Cord 810/812 (1936–37) became famous for their advanced engineering as well as their striking appearance. The Auburn Boattail Speedster was powered by a 4.6L straight eight that, with the popular supercharger option (150 hp), could top 100 mph (160 km/h).
At a time when Cadillac was competing directly with Rolls-Royce and its most powerful engine managed 90 horses, the Auburn put out 115 and topped 100mph.
The Depression, coupled with Cord's stock manipulations, spelled the end of the company and production ceased in 1937.
