Back in the 1900’s there was a machine that was so revolutionary it changed the way we go about our day today. Even though the automobile had been around for years the Ford Model T was the first car ever to be massed produced. It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile for the masses. Being able to grasp just how important this vehicle was would be nearly impossible. The model T allowed people to commute to farther locations with less effort as it would have taken by either walking or being on horseback. Henry Ford himself stated that “"I will build a car for the great multitude. It will be large enough for the family, but small enough for the individual to run and care for… and you can have it in any color as long as it’s black.” As well as being the first mass produced automobile it was also the first car to be produced in more than one country. The model T was being assembled in Walkersville, Canada and in Trafford Park, Greater Manchester, England starting in 1911. They were then later assembled in Germany, Argentina, France, Spain, Denmark, Norway, Belgium, Brazil, Mexico, and Japan, as well as several locations throughout the US. The Model T is an extremely important car in the advancements of personal transport.

Similarly today we have many brilliant minds working on Henry’s idea. How can we make them more comfortable, safer, and faster as well as being economical? This is something that hyper car engineers are working hard to fit all of these aspects in. One of the most revolutionary cars of the modern world is the Bugatti Veyron. This car can travel at speeds of over 250mph and amazingly “it only feels like you are doing 70” James May a reporter for Top gear said he “had never driven anything like it”. This car really sparked the whole world’s fastest car competition and is constantly pushing technology forward and pushing the boundaries of what most humans ever thought was possible.

The model T and the Bugatti Veyron may seem worlds apart but in fact they stand for almost the exact same purpose. Both these cars want to make a difference in how people look at cars and what they can do.The model T wanted to create a car for everyone and advance mass production.The Veyron wanted to further technology and push the boundaries of what was believed to be possible. With out the Model T we would more then likely still be making cars by hand and would not be open to the idea of mass production of automobiles. The Veyron is a car that was crucial to the development of going faster and exploring areas of physics that hand not ever been looked at. All in all we would more then likely not be where we are without these two cars.
