  • How to Reach Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille
    CHANTILLY ARTS & ELEGANCE RICHARD MILLE 9 & 10 SEPTEMBER IN THE PREMIUM LEAGUE! The fourth Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille will be held in 2017 and it has already earned prestigious accolades starting with the Historic Motoring Award of the Year for the first Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille by Octane, the benchmark British magazine, which gave it the same award the following year, and it was again nominated in 2016. Since 2015 it has enjoyed the honorary sponsorship of the French Ministry of Culture and Communications. And it has just been nominated by the Peninsula Classics Committee for the Best of the Best Award for 2016, 2017 and 2018. All these prizes have crowned the concept of this event that has revived the Concours d’Elégance of which France was the cradle in the 1920s, as well as celebrating the French Art de Vivre, an inestimable richness of which our country can be justly proud. Boosted by this success and still on the lookout for improvements to enhance the excellence of the event, Peter Auto is enriching and refining its concours to make it even more magical and captivating in the eyes of its public and partners. Thus, the 2017 event will have certain evolutions including new dates (a week later than in previous years), the Bonhams auction moved to Sunday, an even bigger spectacle with the return of Mario Luraschi with a new equestrian show, and a richer manufacturers’ village with Bugatti, DS Automobiles, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Tesla and others to be announced in the near future. And of course, the motorbikes! The ingredients that have put this newcomer in the premium league and thrilled more than 13 000 visitors in the last two stagings are still the same.

  • Pagani and Sonus Faber Press Release
    Pagani and Sonus faber announce partnership with the introduction of an exclusive premium high-end audio system for the new Pagani Huayra Renowned high-end luxury audio speaker manufacturer Sonus faber and sports car manufacturer and design atelier Pagani have developed in co—design an exclusive premium high-end audio system for the Pagani Huayra. This achievement marks the first step of a partnership between two iconic Italian brands. The Pagani vehicles have always been known for their every day car capabilities, despite the performance they regularly demonstrate on the world’s most prestigious racetracks. The Pagani Huayra has been praised for its smooth supple ride, light cabin interior and confidence inspiring handling. Creating a high-end audio system that would improve on both extremes of his two-sided nature was a challenge for the expert audio engineers at Sonus faber and the creative team at Pagani. Technical specifications Sonus faber has transcended its music reproduction skills for this supercar challenge. From the immutable harmony of interiors to the rhythm “on the road”, a set of new paradigms has been created. Power versus featherweight, is the leitmotiv. New, innovative, Carbon cones have been developed, marrying extreme rigidity to lowest weight, inspired by the Carbo-Titanium nature of Huayra. Neodymium magnets are used throughout for highest performance and lightest weight possible. Reverberating the car extreme performance, the new Sonus faber audio system provides an amplifiers’ structure which delivers a total amount of 1.200 Watt power output, tripling the performance available in the Huayra ‘s standard sound system. When the mighty AMG V12 engine is not singing the song of power, a Digital Sound Processor creates a refined atmosphere where both driver and passenger can enjoy hearing a rich sound experience not normally expected in a hypersports car.
