The most futuristic production car

[Matra et Alpine]

of course at the same time as the uber expensive Countach, the NOVA kit car was even more "futuristic"

That crosses the line between futuristic and just silly.

Just saw a d/lked episode of Battlestar Gallactica and what cars did they have in the car park to respresent a "future" humanity ??

Yep the Citroen DS.

SO it kind of gets more confirmation that it is STILL seen as futuristic

The new Mercedes S-Class.

Tatra 87. Imagine this car in 1936, when it was first put onto the market and compare it to the boxy things on the road then. Pure future shock. Streamlined, lightweight, DOHC aircooled V8 engine all made for a very fast car for its day. All in all 3,022 (3,056 according to some sources) T87s were built.

Welcome to UCP. Interesting choice, I never realised that the V8 had DOHCs, so I checked a few things and came across some interesting comments. The tendency to oversteer was very pronounced (not surprising given the lay-out of the chassis) and over ambitious drivers very often crashed. It was the favourite car of the German officers stationed in that area, but at a certain moment the Army Chiefs forbid the use of the car, as too many officers were killed.

I found a pic of the engine in my collection, and it does look like a single OHC
