Car enthusiast dads around Beverly Hills, California, got a special treat over the weekend after philanthropist Bruce Meyer hosted the Rodeo Drive Concours d'Elegance. The event, currently in its 27th year, attracts more than 50,000 spectators along the route. Self-made multi-millionaire and YouTube personality Manny Khoshbin treated himself to the event, and in tow was his one-of-one Bugatti Chiron Hermes Edition.
The free car show featured a list of 50 participating cars, and among them was Khoshbin's 1-of-1 Hermes Bugatti Chiron. This year's Rodeo Drive Concours d'Elegance had two events. The first was a moving car rally escorted through the city streets by Beverly Hills Police, and the second was a stationary Concours-style show on Rodeo Drive.
Apart from Khoshbin's Bugatti, other interesting entries included the Ford GT Carbon Liquid, a 2008 Koenigsegg CCX, 1970 Nissan Skyline 2000 GT-R, 1936 Bugatti Type 57 Suisse Graber Cabriolet, a 1912 Ford Model T Roadster Pickup, Fred Astaire’s Rolls-Royce among others.
"This year is my first year. I am going to do the drive, and I brought my Bugatti Chiron Hermes Edition," Khoshbin said. "The Rodeo Concours d'Elegance is more about classic cars, but more and more modern cars are coming," he added.
Manny and the rest of the convoy drove through the city streets with the Mayor and the Beverly Hills Police in tow. He couldn't help brag that his Bugatti was the most powerful car in the fleet.
While everything was happening outside, the event had a super VIP surprise underground in the Auto Vault lounge. The lounge had top-tier cars, including a Ford GT40, Ferraris, Porsches, and a mingle section.
At the end of the event, Manny Khoshbin's Bugatti Chiron Hermes Edition won an award for the most fashionable car.
"What a day, I got an award for the most fashionable car. I didn't even expect it. My first award ever, and hopefully one of many to come," he said.
