What kind of car?
1937 Horch 853 Sport Cabriolet by Voll & Ruhrbeck. Horch was actually one of the four manufacturers that made up Auto Union, who were then consolidated into Audi--the four rings in Audi's logo actually represent Audi, DKW, Wanderer and Horch.
 
1938 Buick Y-Job

1941 Chrysler Phantom Thunderbolt
And no small coincidence it looks like the Muntz Jet, or rather the Jet looks like it, as the Thunderbolt was a major influence on Madman Muntz's and Frank Curtis' design.

Thanks for the correction! I knew the name of the car was Thunderbolt, but I accidentally typed in Phantom since I was searching up the 1938 Phantom Corsair, which is this car:

Look how old Peugeot is.

Peugeot type 14 1897

 
I love Prewar cars. The only problem with loving prewar cars is that they aren't in racing games. I can understand some of them, not being fast and all, but why aren't Duesenbergs and Cords in Forza? These beasts could go 140+ mph!

Here's some photos of the first split window Beetle. Prototype V303/1 is the first car to incorporate the Beetle's final design. The car was built by hand between sometime in 1937 and May 1938.
