In the 1970, Carrera offered 1:24, 1:32 and 1:60 scales for slot cars, and the slot-free "Servo" systems which allowed cars to switch lanes, guided by the guard rails on the outside. Due to the many systems offered, and fewer customers (Generation), Neuhierl had to sell his company in 1985, and took his own life. The new owners sold rather cheap products.

Rolls-Royce Wraith

The 2014 Rolls-Royce Wraith is a super-charged dynamic coupe with an elegant design and a refined luxurious touch.
The Wraith is so far the most powerful and the most adventure loving model in the history of Rolls-Royce. According to current CEO Torsten Muller-Otvos, "The car embodies the spirit of the legendary Charles Stewart Rolls." Once in the market, the Rolls-Royce Wraith is expected to hit the ground running (literally). According to Harald Kruger, the entry of the Wraith is proof of the BMW Group's commitment to growth.

Engine

Effortless power delivery comes thanks to a 624 hp V12 engine and a Satellite Aided Transmission (SAT) - a debut feature that takes the car to a whole new level of effortless driving. The SAT system uses GPS data to see far beyond what the driver sees to ensure that the V12 engine's immense power is utilized wisely.

Performance

The Wraith is designed with a shorter wheelbase, a wide rear track, 592 lb-ft @1500rpm of torque, and a lower roof all designed to maximize on power delivery. It also boasts of voice activation command features, on-screen and audio route assistance and Ecstasy Rotary Controller all meant at reducing the need for manual input.

Exterior & Interior
 
Its catchy design, unique finish and luxurious features are perhaps some of the 2014 Rolls Royce Wraith's most alluring additions that make her an instant darling to many. She has a couple of well thought interior and exterior features notably: huge front and the rear bumpers, chassis, state-of-the art seats and high-tech control features.
However, truth be told, these features are just but the tip of the proverbial ice-berg, as more is packaged deeper inside in terms of more engine power, added stability and incomparable durability.
Bottom line...the 2014 Rolls-Royce Wraith could indeed be the ultimate car of the future!
