Audi Re-Releases Auto Union Type C As Pedal Car
The original Auto Union Type C was a V16-powered Grand Prix car with 520 HP. This new Audi-built Auto Union Type C replica announced today will be powered by two feet and may get you the power of about half of a horse depending on how fast your little legs can move. The 1:2 replica of the Auto Union Silver Arrow pedal car, first revealed as a prototype at last year's Paris Motor Show, has now been approved for a collectors run of just 999 foot-powered units. The 1:2 size means it's perfectly large enough to accommodate "budding racing drivers up to 1.35 metres tall." No word yet on pricing, but contact Audi USA to find out more details not included in the full press release below the jump. More »

1936 1938 Auto Union Type C D "Silver Arrow," whose roaring V16 V12 penetrated the post-rush lull on Manhattan's most exclusive street. Just imagine the sound of an entire field of these things lined up on the N
rburgring, and try to forget who was most likely seated in the VIP section. [UPDATE: Behind the wheel is R10 TDI racer Emmanuel Pirro. [UPDATE 2: It's actually a 1938 Auto Union Type D Silver Arrow. Thanks to Benztown for the double-check tip.]
