The countdown to the Concours of Elegance Germany starts today, with event set to commence in just under 150 days. Home to the world’s most revered and historic motoring brands, the first truly international Concours of Elegance will open with its Bavarian Tour on 22nd July, with 25 stunning cars embarking on a meticulously curated four-day exploration of the very best that Bavaria has to offer.
Presented by prestigious German watchmaker A. Lange & Söhne, Concours of Elegance Germany will build on the success of the prestigious Concours of Elegance at Hampton Court Palace and the London Concours events, welcoming an exquisite array of automobiles to Gut Kaltenbrunn on the shores of Lake Tegernsee from 22-27 July 2024.
Among the cars on display will be truly exceptional examples of the 1971 Ferrari 365 GTB4 and the 1967 AC Frua. Designed by Pininfarina and constructed by Scaglietti, two icons of the Italian automotive industry, there were just 156 right-hand drive models of the GTB4 ever made. Fusing US V8 horsepower and Italian styling, the AC Frua was also made in remarkably small numbers, with just 29 convertibles leaving the production line.
Detailed arrangements for the spectacular new international event continue at pace, with many more of the world’s rarest and finest collectible cars to be announced in the coming weeks.
