Hot Wheels Wiki says - 16 Angels is a futuristic V16-powered sports car. Inspiration for the car came from the Jaguar E-Type. Nathan Proch first thought about naming the car "E-go Type", but, wanting to avoid being called an ego maniac, changed the name to "Saturday Night Special", only for Mattel's legal department to reject the name (presumably due the phrase's association with inexpensive guns used in crime). The eventual choice of "16 Angels" was for its cylinders and angels (from Nathan Proch’s Heavenly Car, a Red Line Club exclusive article by HWC Gary):

"I remember in Bible school when I was a kid, if I’m not mistaken, an angel has the power of 1,000 men or 10,000 men – they’re considered very strong in biblical terms."

The casting lost its metal body in 2009 and was retooled in 2015 to become a post-post design.
