Holy !! From wikipedia:
Quote:
Just two supercharged Type 57SC cars were built new, but most 57S owners wanted the additional power afforded by the blower. Therefore, most of the original Type 57S cars returned to Molsheim for the installation of a supercharger, pushing output from 175 hp (130 kW) to 200 hp (150 kW) and 120 mph (190 km/h).
200 hp car in 1936, that's pretty impressive!

Crazy things I would do with that amount of money. Crazy! And only half of them involve buying a car

And the moment he buys it and drives it off the lot, it depreciates about 10 million..
