Quite a few of them are very open about it and germany is generally one of the most upfront countries about their history. but i guess you could say the same about a lot of other companies. older american companies? Slaves most definitely, sometimes even active supporters of the confederacy. Every old company from the former british empire? Slaves and all the fcked up shit. The japanese? Dont even get me started. Yeah sure, we did a lot of shit wrong, but we payed for it big time and are probably some of the only ones sorry for it. We are no saints but we dont claim to be. basically every other country? Same shit, just a different time or place, so stop acting like your countries did nothing wrong, they definitely did, you just dont know about it.

The mighty Duesenberg 420 cu. in. straight 8 with dual overhead cams and a supercharger produced as much as 400 HP, and was the most powerful and fastest production car in the world for many years. The Germans, especially back then, were not ones to copy others, but rather set the mark for others to follow!

German person here. A mistake, it is ,der Führerschein ', not ,das Führerschein '. ( In some cases a change of der, die , das changes the meaning of the same word, but not here. For example: Der Schild/the shield, but das Schild/the sign.) I visited this museum several times, a lot of Intressting items. When you hear the museum technican speaking, clearly swabian dialect, only watered down. According to a german arms magazine, in at least some of the Große Mercedes, armoured or not, ordered by Governement, there had been one or two hidden pockets, containing a loaded Luger pistol and a spare magazin, but i couldnt proof this in the museum, you can' t go such close to the car. Now an armoured car with convertible roof. Risky, someone could throw a handgrenade or a heavy stone into the car, or shooting from a house or otherwise from above ( see Kennedy in Dallas). True, but european assassinations, 1914 Sarajewo or 1934 Marseille ( assassination of jugoslawian king Alexander and a french minister, newsreels of this incident i saw in KZread) had been done by pistolshooters, firing from sidewalk level. I don' t know if in 1934 the car was armoued or not. When yes, the assassin must have shot through an open window. But armoured cars then had sometimes no bulletproof glass, but only moveable steelplates, which had to be moved in case of danger, and the driver could only see through slits. Who had in 1930s an armoured car? Not only presidents or kings, also dubious figures of US organized crime, for example Al Capone. Some of those gangster cars had been proffesionally armoured, some only partly or improvised for example by adding simply an Aluminium sheet. Remember: In 1935 .357 Magnum was introduced, rare and expensive, 7, 63 Mauser was seen as dangerous in penetration context, but pistols for strong cartidges ( 9mm Luger, .45 Acp etc.)had been large and not so practical for concealed carry and surprising use. The more concealable pistols/ revolvers in.22, .32, .38 ,.25 had no good penetration, so the armoured cars of 1930s had been protective for this era. I have read somewhere, could be wrong, that in 1941 US President had no armoured car, but i was decided, for war reason he needs one. According to the article, also first armoured car of an US President was similar to shown car , a convertible and as first substitute Al Capones confiscated car was used.

From the early 1930’s, Mercedes had produced a luxury model in a variety of roadster, sedan and convertible styles, designated the 500K or 540 K.
