It would revolutionize the auto industry as would Ford's groundbreaking Five Dollar Day wage for an eight-hour shift.

If you think a V12 isn't enough, how about a V16? This 1931 Cadillac V-16 Roadster has 172bhp on tap, which makes the performance of this 80-odd year-old car somewhat exciting. As in very.
As for this car, RM Auctions – which is putting it on sale at its Arizona auction in January – say: 'The car shown here is believed to have been built on an original 1931 V-16 chassis with engine number 702891. Its bodywork was crafted to exacting original specifications, rather than using a V-8 roadster body, as is common for these cars. The V-8 body is very similar to the V-16, but it will not mate perfectly with the V-16 cowl, resulting in a rather awkward appearance. By carefully building a body from scratch, the result is a wonderful car that is essentially the “106th of the 105” original Roadsters built by Cadillac from 1930 to 1931. It is believed that some other V-16 Roadster body components were utilized in the creation of this body, including the stamped piece of body wood in the floor, which identifies it as body number 19, and the tag on the cowl, which is a reproduction and identifies it as being the 91st.'
