Default Hitler Race Car Could Fetch $12 million - Auto Union

Designed by Porsche, the 485-hp Auto Union D-type was revolutionary in its day.

A rare 1939 German race car commissioned by Adolf Hitler is expected to command the highest price ever paid for any automobile at auction, according to Christie's, which will conduct the auction in Paris in February 2007.

485 h.p., 185 mph; not bad for a car from the 30's!
