Red Mist
A sea of Ferrari Red will take over The Quail in honor of one of the most iconic supercars ever created. The Ferrari F50, which was unveiled in 1995 to celebrate Ferrari’s 50th anniversary, was designed to replicate the experience of driving a F1 race car, incorporating a V12 engine for maximum power and minimal driver aids. With only 349 examples produced, this class will showcase one of Ferrari’s rarest and most eye-catching designs.
American Iron
The 60th anniversary of the Shelby Mustang GT350 class will host some of the finest examples of classic American horsepower. Born from Ford’s challenge to Carroll Shelby to modify the Mustang, the Shelby GT350 is a high-performance, special-edition Mustang that holds a special place in car culture and helped shape the muscle car industry.
Italian Grace
Highlighting the unique combination of classic Italian styling paired with rumbling American V8 engines, the 60th Anniversary of the Iso Grifo class will feature dozens of the limited grand tourer. Intended to compete with similar models from Ferrari and Maserati, it is renowned among collectors for its sleek design and cutting-edge technology.
