Whether you are a first-time car owner, an enthusiast or one of the most knowledgeable experts in the field, we hope this event exceeds your expectations. Your involvement in Concours enables us to support many worthy local charities. Since formalizing Concours into a fundraising event in 2004, over $250,000 has been raised. This year, proceeds will be granted to All Faiths Receiving Home, Children’s Cancer Fund of New Mexico and New Mexico Appleseed. Remaining funds will be added to the Cinco Amigos Endowed Fund at the Community Foundation. Our goal is to build a fund that will continue to benefit local nonprofit organizations long after we are all gone. A number of people make this event possible including participants, spectators, volunteers, sponsors and the Community Foundation staff who all work together to make Concours a success. We thank you and hope you enjoy the 2009 Concours du Soleil. Warm regards, The Cinco Amigos 3 Concours du Soleil grewThe out ofHistory an informal gathering of the New Mexico Viper Club to view cars at a residence at Wash- ington and Constitution in Albuquerque. This first started in 1997, and each year a few more cars appeared. The guys involved decided to make the gathering more formal and model their show after Concours d’Elegance in Pebble Beach. In September 2004, they had a “test-drive” and named Carrie Tingley Hospital as a potential benefactor. Everyone decided it was a good idea and ventured to plan something on a bigger scale. In September, 2005, the first Concours du Soleil was held and sponsored by Carrie Tingley Hospital Foundation, the sole charitable benefactor. After the 2006 event, the Albuquerque Community Foundation was asked to take on the event. The individuals who started Concours du Soleil have estab- lished the Cinco Amigos Fund of the Albuquerque Community Foundation, and through that permanent endowment, local charities benefit each year from the event and will continue to do so, forever. 4 5 2009 Featured Automobile: 1935 Mercedes-Benz 500 K Spezial Roadster The Mercedes-Benz 500 K takes its place in automotive history as one of Mercedes-Benz’s greatest accomplishments. It is truly a breathtaking experience to stand next to this enormous vehicle and appreciate its craftsmanship. The 500 K was introduced in 1934 with the ‘K’ representing a Kompressor which in German translates for supercharger. With the adoption of the Kompressor, the horsepower registered an impressive 160, making the 500 K one of the fastest grand touring cars of their time. The vehicles ride on a 116 inch wheelbase. Powered by an M24 inline-eight cylinder supercharged engine, the 500 was named after the cubic-capacity of its engine, a 5018 cc power plant. The brakes are power assisted, the suspension is four-wheel independent suspension with swing arms, and the transmission has five gears. 6 The standard equipment included two spare wheels and tires, safety glass, electric windshield wipers, tool kit, lighted number plates, hydraulic brakes, central lubrication, a 12-volt electrical system and a four-speed gearbox with synchromesh on the top three gears. The 500 K was ready in time for the 1934 Berlin Motorshow, and it was in the German capital that the lavish Mercedes-Benz found a fair share of customers. Many of the senior government officials used this elegant roadster during parades, but it was also very popular with the rich and famous. Because of its power to weight configuration (over 160 bhp to 4400 lbs), it could hardly be consid- ered a sportscar. It took nearly 20 seconds for the Teutonic beast to reach 60 mph and considering that, the top speed of 100 mph does not sound too bad. The 500 K was offered in ten unique body styles including the Spe- cial Roadster. The Hermann Ahrens designed Special Roadster was a limited production cabriolet that could accommodate two adults in its 209 inch (over 17 ft) frame. The coachwork was handled by Mercedes-Benz. In total only 29 were produced. In 1935, only 7 were made, including the one shown here at Concours du Soleil 2009. Production of the 500 K lasted over two years, and then it was replaced by the larger engined 540 K, which was first shown during the Paris Salon in the fall of 1936. During World War II many were hidden and protected along with other priceless works-of-art. With production low and craftsmanship at their peak, these vehicles are well sought after in modern times. This particular model has won ‘Best of Show’ at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance several times as well as at various concourses throughout the country. This 500K Spezial Roadster was the featured car at the 1936 Paris Auto Show. Only two people have owned this car. Robert Day, a res- ident of California, purchased this car when he saw it at the show in Paris. Day owned the car until an Albuquerque resident purchased it in 1974 and has owned it ever since. The Spezial Roadster is considered one of the most beautiful auto- mobiles ever built. Source: Mercedes-Benz 7 The Garage #G1 2007 Ferrari F430 Spider Powered by Ferrari’s 490 bhp, 4,308 cc 90° V8.

  • A Half-Dozen Groundbreaking Ferraris Were Built for the Prince of Brunei
    7/4/2016 The Secret Six | The Verge TH CRT IX A half-dozen groundbreaking Ferraris were built for the Prince of Brunei. Only one made it out of the jungle alive By Ryan ZumMallen | Photography by Paul Barshon The order came from the Sultan of Brunei’s nephew. It was 1994, and Prince Abdul Hakeem, then 20 years old, had inherited two things: access to a $40 billion fortune, and his family’s penchant for spending it. http://www.theverge.com/2016/4/6/11371554/pininfarina­ferrari­fx­first­semi­automatic­transmission 1/19 7/4/2016 The Secret Six | The Verge In the ‘80s and ‘90s, the monarchs of this tiny, oil­rich nation in the South China Sea bankrolled a fleet of special custom vehicles, ordering the most coveted cars in the world by the half­dozen or more. Their notorious collection — located in nondescript concrete garages, surrounded by razor wire, and patrolled by armed Nepalese soldiers known as gurkhas — numbered in the thousands. Visitors described rows and rows of warehouses, filled to the brim with luxury cars, sometimes organized by make, model, or even color. In his online newsletter, Ferrari broker Michael Sheehan described one floor dedicated solely to black Mercedes SL500s, another to red Ferrari Testarossas, and yet another to bright yellow Bentleys and Lamborghinis. One particularly star­studded showroom included a Ferrari 288 GTO Evo, F40 LM, F50, and three McLaren F1s. VRAL OF TH CAR COULD FOUND NOWHR L IN TH WORLD Several of the cars in these warehouses were one­of­a­kind, built specifically for Brunei, and could be found nowhere else in the world.

  • Ping Open the Driver-Side Door — It's a High-Pressure Die-Cast Piece, All Metal and Yet Light As Carbon Fiber and It Does Indeed Open with a Resounding Ping
    Ping open the driver-side door — it's a high-pressure die-cast piece, all metal and yet light as carbon fiber and it does indeed open with a resounding ping. You're presented with a fairly challenging new cabin design, as Ferrari has been brave here and rethought many of the standard control functions of a sports car. It doesn't take long for the 4.5-liter V8 to come alive. Given the stratospheric specific output of 570 horsepower at 9,000 rpm and peak torque of 398 pound-feet at 6,000 rpm, it works from surprisingly low revs. Throttle response is razor-sharp, and the exhaust noise, as you'd expect from Ferrari, is sensational. Was it a mistake to fit a dual-clutch gearbox? Quite simply, no. The seven-speed automated manual transmission involves you to just the right degree, but retains that almost otherworldly smoothness and efficiency only present with a dual-clutch design. The 2010 Ferrari 458 Italia is not just a Ferrari; it's one of the most modern sports cars on the road. It says that Ferrari is not just about passion and performance but also about technology and leadership. Speed Is a Passionate Science The 2010 Ferrari 458 Italia is the ideal car with which to plot the remarkable performance increase seen in sports cars over the past two decades. If you can remember the 1975 Ferrari 308 GTB, it had a 255-hp 3.0-liter V8. After various iterations it gave way at last to the 1989 Ferrari 348 with a 3.4-liter V8 that produced 295 hp.
