I would venture to say that the Auburn 851 Speedster is a masterpiece, not just in Art Deco but in all facets of design.

Auburn sure is great but I prefer Delahaye myself.

To each his own, both are stunning examples of automotive excellence.

That's not even it's best angle.

If automotive fetishes were a thing, mine would for sure be for boattails seeing as Riviera boattails are right up there in my top 5 favorite cars ever along with the Auburn. I'll probably buy a kit car version of one one day, without a straight 8 provably but who knows.

If someone doesn't love boattails they are either blind or stupid!

I'm surprised I don't have any boat tailed Auburns in my car pron stash... I'm stealing a few of these

Actually... That kind of works

Right? Along with Rolls-Royce and maybe Bentley, Chrysler is the last to keep Art Deco in car design (I took a long time to die in cars, long after it had died in other mediums)

reason #2384932 why Chrysler rocks at design
