The ME Four-Twelve (Chrysler ME412) is a concept car produced by Chrysler in the year 2004. This model got it's name from Mid-Engine with Four turbochargers on a Twelve-cylinder engine. Unfortunatelly this car never made into the production otherwise it would the be the concept car that would've been able to match those made by the Bugatti company.
The Chrysler ME Four-Twelve had it all. With most of the car's interior, body and chassis bult from carbon fiber it had light weight. When equped with 6.0 l V12 engine with power of 850 BHP (625.6 KW) at 5750 RPM it had speed - 248 mph maximum speed and 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds to be exact. And with it's desing it had the looks of supremacy.
The car was first presented at the Datroit Auto Show in January 2004 and it made great imapact on the audiance. Especially because the company that was supose to make into the real deal, the Chrysler, was not know for making such a car. But the bosses told the media that if the reception is good they were going to "build this baby". So with serious budget and small team of capable people lead by Dan Knott , Chrysler's SRT special-vehicles chief, the company started working on fulfilment of the promise given in Detroit.
Still for the reasons mostly know to Chrysler team the car never made into the general production and it was never driven on the streets.
