2010 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este Winners Announced

This year’s Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este highlights included concept models of the future, the “100 Years of Alfa Romeo” special exhibition and the world premiere of the BMW 328 Kamm Coupé. Sunday’s event alone saw more than 5,000 visitors attending, as the big winners were announced. “Once again the Concorso has borne impressive testimony that cars have lost none of their fascination,” said Karl Baumer, President of the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este and Director of BMW Group Classic. “The Concorso is ruled by a constellation that could hardly be bettered: heritage, elegance and a passion for cars create the perfect foundation for a weekend such as we have been privileged to experience once again,” added Jean-Marc Droulers, President of Villa d’Este S.p.A.
