History
Sharply raked, highly stylized grille
The car caused an absolute sensation, with a modern flowing design, spare wheels hidden behind the front wheels, a wide-degree angle V-12, and top speed of 115 mph (185 km/h). Five production models were built, but they resembled a more typical Pierce-Arrow and lacked many of the unique features shown in New York. Only three Silver Arrows exist today.
