What happens when you put Horch, DKW, Audi and Wanderer together, let Ferdinand Porsche design a crazy 32-valve, V16 pushrod motor that cranks out 520hp at five grand, and build one of the most aesthetically-badass bodies and chassis ever seen to put the thing in? You get the Auto-Union Type C. Put Bernd Rosemeyer in the cockpit, and you also walk away with the European Championship for 1936.
