The event promises to captivate automotive enthusiasts through new immersive and engaging experiences. The MMF will take place all day (11 am-10pm) on August 19th, 2023. (Details of the event are listed below)

Here are two American sports car icons: On the left is a silver 2004 Dodge Viper SRT-10 Convertible with an 8.3L/500 HP V-10 engine and a 6-Speed Tremec transmission. On the right is a 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Coupe with the Z07 package, which includes a powerful 5.5L/670 HP V-8 engine estimated to sell for between $275,000 and $325,000.
The three-day auction will feature approximately 600 automobiles, but the majority of the most outstanding vehicles will come from eight individual collections. The following are the top car collections for sale:

Veloce, Schnell & Fast Sports Car Collection: This collection boasts over 25 world-class vintage sports cars imported from the finest factories worldwide. It features Ferraris, Austin-Healey’s, Porsches, and more, with a high concentration of classics from the ’50s and ’60s.
The Santa Cruz Motorcycle Collection.: This collection includes three significant and rare motorcycles. Among them are a one-of-four 1915 Indian 8-Valve, a 1918 Henderson Four in original paint and remarkable condition, and a low-production 1942 Indian Chief.
From the Tom Brennan Car Collection: This collection comprises a trio of documented vintage Porsche race cars specified for SCCA-sanctioned racing, including a rare demonstrator and a factory-built special.

FEATURED CAR COLLECTIONS
One of the featured car collections up for auction in Monterey that will offer a larger selection of rare Ferraris is The Veloce, Schnell & Fast Sports Car Collection. This collection includes approximately 25 car total including a good number of extremely rare Ferraris, Porsches, and Austin-Healeys – but also includes other collectibles. The majority of the collection consists of twelve extremely rare Ferraris, with valuations well in excess of a million dollars.
Three of the most impressive cars in the Veloce collection include a 1965 Ferrari 500 Superfast Series II, listed at $2,000,000 – $2,500,000, a 1963 Ferrari 400 Superamerica Series II, priced between $2,850,000 – $3,100,000, and a 1968 Ferrari 330 GTS expected to sell for $1,800,000 – $2,200,000.
Above are two extremely rare Ferraris that are expected to sell at the Mecum Monterey Auction. On the left is a 1963 Ferrari 400 Superamerica Series II with a long wheelbase and body by Pininfarina (only one of 22 long-wheelbase cars ever produced). On the right is a 1965 Ferrari 500 Superfast Series II, also built by Pininfarina (one of only 36 ever manufactured).

FEATURED AUCTION VEHICLE
One of the highlights of the auction is the 1937 Mercedes-Benz 540K Special Roadster, which is no stranger to Monterey Car Week and The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Back in 2011, the 540K Roadster was a main attraction in Pebble Beach and was prominently displayed at the event.
The extremely rare red 1937 Mercedes-Benz 540K Special Roadster was showcased at the 2011 Pebble Beach Concours and prominently featured in Jan Melin’s Book “The Supercharged 8-Cylinder Cars”. It is only 1 of 149 ever built and is priced to sell at the Mecum Monterey Auction for between $3,500,000 – $4,500,000.
The 1937 Mercedes-Benz 540K Special Roadster is one of the most iconic and coveted cars of the pre-war era. This luxurious and powerful vehicle exudes elegance and style. The 540K Special Roadster was produced in limited quantities, making it even more rare and desirable.
This particular one-off 540K Roadster is part of the Don Williams Estate Car Collection. And rare, you bet! This luxury classic was previously part of the Imperial Palace Auto Car Collection and the General William Lyon Collection. It was constructed under the guidance of renowned car designer Hermann Ahrens. It’s one of only 419 examples ever produced and carries an asking price of $3,500,000–$4,500,000.

Pebble Beach Concours Welcomes Amanda Stretton As The New Masters of Ceremonies, August 17, 2025
2025-08-17 10:00 - 18:00 | Pebble Beach Golf Links, 1700 17 Mile Drive, Pebble Beach, CA, 93953, United States
The 74th Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance takes place on Sunday, August 17, 2025, on the famed 18th fairway of the Pebble Beach Golf Links in Monterey, California.
As the culminating event of Monterey Car Week, the Concours brings together approximately 200 of the finest collector vehicles from around the world.

The 74th annual Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance will take place on Sunday, August 17, 2025, at the iconic Pebble Beach Golf Links during Monterey Car Week in Monterey, California.

Featured Cars at the 74th Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance – August 17, 2025
The 2025 Concours will spotlight several prestigious featured classes, highlighted by historic centennial celebrations and themed tributes:
Centennial Marques: A special tribute to three luxury car marques celebrating their 100th anniversaries in 2025:

Chrysler
Invicta
Moretti
The 60th Anniversary Shelby Cobra 427 – showcasing the iconic big‑block Cobra in honor of its 1965 debut
Creations of Virgil Exner – spotlighting the dramatic and influential post‑war designs by this legendary stylist
Formula 1 Racing Legends – a celebratory class honoring historic and contemporary F1 cars and innovators, timed with Formula 1’s 75th anniversary of the world championship

The 2023 Pebble Beach Concours Best of Show went to this 1937 Mercedes-Benz 540K Special Roadster. It is considered amoung car collectors as one of the most iconic and valuable pre-war cars in the world. Its blend of exquisite design, superior engineering, and luxurious details makes it a prime example of the pinnacle of automotive art from the era.

In 2025, the featured classes include three marques celebrating major milestones: Chrysler, Invicta, and Moretti each mark their 100th anniversaries.
Other highlights include a tribute to the 60th anniversary of the Shelby Cobra 427, a showcase of post‑war designs by Virgil Exner, and a class dedicated to historic and modern Formula 1 racing legends.
This event is considered the pinnacle of concours competitions. Entry is highly selective—most entrants spend years restoring vehicles to strict standards of authenticity and condition, with individual cars valued in the mid‑six to seven figures. Acceptance alone is a mark of prestige.
In 2024, a 1934 Bugatti Type 59 Sports, presented by Fritz Burkard of The Pearl Collection, won the coveted Best of Show award. It was the first time in the Concours’ history that a preservation-class car—unrestored and original—received the honor.

Award Ceremonies
The Concours day concludes with an awards ceremony attended by crowds lining the fairway and grandstand. The presentation of top awards—including Best of Show—often makes headlines and can significantly elevate a car’s market value. The energized atmosphere provides a memorable finale to a day of automotive excellence.
The awards ceremony at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance typically unfolds mid‑afternoon on

Concours Sunday:

The show field opens to credentialed spectators at approximately 5:30 a.m., and general judging begins at 8:00 a.m.
The Awards Ceremony and live show, which includes presentation of class winners, special trophies, and the pinnacle Best of Show, is scheduled between 1:30 p.m. and 5:00 p.m.

For new collectors, Pebble Beach is a unique learning opportunity—displaying automotive history in real-world form. For veteran collectors and restorers, it’s a benchmark event that validates years of effort and craftsmanship.
In 2025, this prestigious gathering once again underscores why it remains the most important event in the collector-car calendar.

The historic Blenheim Palace in the United Kingdom will once again roll out the red carpet and open its doors to what is considered the crème de la crème of international car shows.
From August 27 to 31, 2025, the Salon Privé Concours will showcase an impressive collection of automobiles against the backdrop of Baroque architecture and sprawling English gardens.
This four-day gala is not just about collector cars; it celebrates British luxury, automotive history, and the legacy and traditions of the gas-powered four-wheeled revolution.
Taking place on the South Lawn of Blenheim Palace, this year’s Salon Privé Concours promises a spectacular car show like no other.
While car aficionados can admire rare classic cars, thrill-seekers will have the chance to test drive supercars from elite brands, exploring potential investments.

Beyond the cars, Salon Privé Concours presents an unparalleled English day out, complete with fine dining, Pommery Champagne, and a luxury retail village.
Everything a car connoisseur could dream of, from haute couture to yachts, will be on display.
Set in the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill and home to the Duke of Marlborough, this event is a must-visit for any enthusiast or car collector with an appetite for luxury.
The UK’s most glamorous luxury automotive event, Salon Privé offers an opportunity to dress up and stand out alongside a lawn full of magnificently rare and exotic curated cars, luxury brands, and stunning artworks. Dress Code is “Garden Party”

“Dress code: For gentlemen, we suggest a comfortable suit or blazer with chinos and a pair of brogues. For ladies, we recommend chic daywear such as summer dresses, trousers, and jumpsuits, and welcome beautiful hats, headpieces, and fascinators, of course, on Ladies’ Day Friday. Please bear in mind that gravel paths and lawns at the Palace are not the best surface for stiletto heels….”

How To Dress
Whichever day you choose to attend, think “Garden Party” at Buckingham Palace, think Royal Ascot, and think the very best of Henley Regatta. Garden party attire should be dressy but typically not too formal, effortless but not too casual.

NEW AT GREENFIELD VILLAGE IN 2025: Exhibits: “Indiana Autos”
Indiana rivaled Michigan in the prowess and scale of its automotive industry. Established in 1898, Haynes-Apperson was among the nation’s pioneering automobile firms. Duesenberg and Marmon set benchmarks in luxury and engineering excellence.

The 1907 Apperson “Big Dick” was built between 1907-1908. The Apperson Big Dick had 96 horsepower and cost about $15,000. Apperson put their race engine in a 50-hp Jackrabbit runabout to create the “Big Dick” The Big-Dick 96-hp racer held the record for the highest advertised horsepower vehicle in an American automobile until 1914.Image courtesy AACA Library
McFarlan crafted some of the period’s most coveted vehicles. Stutz introduced America to its America’s original sports car.. Studebaker, initially based in Detroit, relocated its production to South Bend in the 1920s.

Each vehicle has been meticulously chosen and organized into categories such as Exotic Sports Cars, Rare Classics, Vintage Ferraris, and Custom Cars, representing a wide array of styles and historical periods. As visitors navigate the event, they will encounter over 100 exotic supercars, alongside Detroit muscle cars, innovative futuristic concept cars, and elegant relics from the brass era.
The breadth of vehicles on display creates an experience similar to that of a Concours d’Elegance, where the rarity and craftsmanship of each car are on full display. This event provides a unique opportunity for car collectors and enthusiasts to appreciate the diversity and beauty of the automotive world in a setting that highlights both heritage and innovation.

More than 300 vintage, antique, unusual, and custom cars will be on display at Hale Farm & Village, an event that also offers food, beverages, entertainment, and a cigar booth for attendees to enjoy.
In addition to the impressive array of show cars, the event creates a welcoming atmosphere with high-quality food, drinks, and entertainment, making it a fun outing for friends and family alike.
The show draws thousands of visitors and features special amenities such as a play area for children, gourmet food from the locally renowned Todaro’s, car-themed music and entertainment, and self-guided tours of the historic venue.

Molto Bella Car Show History
The Molto Bella Car Show was founded by longtime friends and car collectors, Frank Todaro and David Nelson. When the local “Glenmoor Gathering Auto Show” was canceled nine years ago, the two friends saw an opportunity to create something new. Drawing on tremendous local support, they launched the Molto Bella Car Show as a heartfelt tribute to Frank’s father and his passion for cars.
The event honors Frank’s late father, who passed away from kidney cancer several years ago. This personal loss inspired Frank to ensure that all proceeds from the show benefit the Summit County Kidney Foundation, a cause close to his heart.
More than just a traditional Concours d’Elegance, the Molto Bella Car Show goes beyond featuring cars solely based on rarity, authenticity, and condition. Instead, it highlights an eclectic mix of top-level “eyeball candy” collectibles—cars that may not meet Concours standards but are nonetheless some of the most sought-after and visually captivating vehicles in the world.
Co-Owner Frank explains, “It’s all about the kind of cars and the mix of cars we pick, not just Concours. Hot rods, touring cars, electric cars, movie cars, unique cars with unique histories are all part of the mix.” He continues, “Our music is also designed to get away from the Beach Boys stuff you normally hear at cruises,” he continues. “We have a great selection of the blues playing, cigars for people who enjoy smoking, great food and a professionally laid-out space for the cars. Finally, there is no judging. People love not to be judged. Your car is your trophy … what more could you possibly need?”

ABOUT THE VENUE

Hale Farm & Village features a collection of over 30 historic buildings, including homes, a church, a schoolhouse, and a blacksmith shop, all meticulously restored to illustrate the lives and trades of early American settlers.
As a working farm, Hale Farm showcases period-appropriate farming techniques, with livestock such as sheep, pigs, and chickens contributing to the immersive experience.
Visitors can also witness traditional craftsmanship, with artisans demonstrating skills such as blacksmithing, glassblowing, candle making, and pottery, offering insights into the tools and techniques used during the 19th century.
These demonstrations, combined with the farm’s agricultural focus, provide a rich educational experience that vividly brings rural life in early Ohio to life. (Source: https://ohio.org/)
