As documented in <b><i><span style="font-size: medium;">the 1953 Trend Book Dream Cars</span></i></b>, <b><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Haller</span></i></b> built this ultrastreamlined sports sedan using components from the <b><span style="font-size: medium;">Porsche 356</span></b>, along with parts from <b><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Volkswagen</span></i></b>. Its unusual appearance made it stand out immediately, especially the front end, which resembled a bullet. When we look at photos of the car, we can see a slight resemblance to <a href="https://dik.si/zPwCr" target="_blank"><b><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: white;">the <span>Wikov 35 Kapka</span></span></span></b></a>, a streamlined car produced by the Czechoslovakian company <b><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Wikov</span></i></b> in <b><i><span style="font-size: medium;">1931</span></i></b>. However, <b><span style="font-size: medium;">the <span>Haller Taifun</span></span></b> had a more refined and practical design compared to <b><span style="font-size: medium;">the Wikov model</span></b>, especially for its time. <br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4N4EHxKsqqIUGqwl9kDqC3QO_JTA5VC1pY7F41XC27dtsLyZx45Mm2nu6eoS11FuMO48-Pn9lqTbiOUa4K_nQTF_JiSSiiCXH8eIf-DdiVlqN2zI7ep0pTw-yN6c4HQidIb-QevvgegDUWC3U2y0TuRTbFHVdq34SN8D-5PuGnIyZGQJNlg6aoU9i/s800/1952-Haller Taifun-1.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="566" data-original-width="800" height="283" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4N4EHxKsqqIUGqwl9kDqC3QO_JTA5VC1pY7F41XC27dtsLyZx45Mm2nu6eoS11FuMO48-Pn9lqTbiOUa4K_nQTF_JiSSiiCXH8eIf-DdiVlqN2zI7ep0pTw-yN6c4HQidIb-QevvgegDUWC3U2y0TuRTbFHVdq34SN8D-5PuGnIyZGQJNlg6aoU9i/w400-h283/1952-Haller%20Taifun-1.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The Haller Taifun is powered by a supercharged 40 hp Porsche's engine and said to be capable of more than 125 mph.</span>&nbsp;<span style="color: #2b00fe; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">(Picture from:&nbsp;<a href="https://bit.ly/35M4llV">Autopuzzles</a>)</span></span></td></tr></tbody></table><div style="text-align: justify;">The rear of the car is equally fascinating, with <b><i><span style="font-size: medium;">its fender design embodying the ultimate in 1950s fin styling</span></i></b>. <b><i><span style="font-size: medium;">The four exhaust pipes at the back</span></i></b> added to its futuristic rocket-like appearance. Inside, the car was as unique as its exterior. According to <b><i><span style="font-size: medium;">SpeedAge magazine in its July 1952 edition</span></i></b>, the interior featured a built-in bar and an astonishing number of gauges&#8212;nearly 20 of them&#8212;spanning across the dashboard.
