A Tatra, very nice! I passed a mint one heading up I 75 out of Atlanta a few years back. Looked and sounded fantastic w/ 8 cyl air cooled. I didn't realize how rare they were then.

I've never read this before about them.
An Illustrated History Of Automotive Aerodynamics – In Three Parts | The Truth About Cars
Quote:

Tatra became synonymous with the advanced streamliner of the pre-war era, enabling remarkably fast travel (100 mph) on the fledgling Autobahns of the Third Reich. Favored especially by Luftwaffe brass, they had a nasty habit of killing them, due to its wickedly-abrupt oversteer, thanks to the combination of rear V8 and swing axles. That earned it the nick name of “the Czech secret weapon”. So many died at its hands, that supposedly Hitler forbade his best men to drive them. In many (other) ways, the Tatra 87 was the Porsche Panamera of its time.
