Chrysler Firepower Concept spec

Cadillac was well-known in the 1930s for its sixteen-cylinder engines powering beautiful luxury sedans for America’s aristocrats. The Sixteen is a modern take on a classical theme. Nothing about the Sixteen is practical – just outstanding. It is as powerful as a Bugatti Veyron and far more luxurious than a Rolls-Royce. The Sixteen’s styling will be used on Cadillac’s future lineup. How big a chance is there the Sixteen will move into becoming a real street car? Slim. There was an effort to put it out for production as a start to moving Cadillac into a Bentley market, but money troubles have since forced a change of mind.

2005 Maybach Exelero Maybach is the Mercedes Car Group’s highest-level marque, aimed at the same audience as Rolls-Royce and Bentley. Maybach today is a far cry from what it was in its hey day – its sedans are about as exciting as women’s golf. The Exelero is an attempt to bring an exciting, post-modern idea using the same motivation Cadillac had with the Sixteen. The Exelero, unlike the Caddy, is fierce and frightening. It’s something you’d think a guy in a cape would drive in Gotham City. It’s powered by a 5.9 L twin-turbo V-12. Despite weighing 5,900 lbs., the Exelero can hit 60 mph in a little over four seconds.
