The 1,200-hp F80 represents the pinnacle of Ferrari’s automotive innovation and performance, following in the footsteps of Prancing Horse legends such as the 288 GTO, F40, F50, Enzo, and LaFerrari.
Cavallino Classic returned to South Florida for its 34th annual event celebrating the beauty, speed, history, and art of all things Ferrari. Collectors from all continents gathered alongside thousands of experts, enthusiasts, and tastemakers of all ages to celebrate Ferrari’s excellence. Since 1992, the Cavallino Classic has served as the temple of the preservation of Enzo Ferrari’s legacy. It also featured Enzo Mattioli Ferrari, the great-grandson of Enzo Ferrari, joining the Cavallino organization. Interviewed on the main stage of the show, Enzo said of the cars on display:
Other notable attendees included fashion designer Tommy and Dee Hilfiger, influential guests including Palm Beach Mayor Mayor Danielle Moore, Logan Horne, Devorah Ezagui, Georges “Monsieur” Coupet, Christie Ferrari, Claudia Caminero, Peter Ostrega, Rick Rose, and Herbert Wertheim.
The four-day event included the iconic Tour d’Eleganza, the highly anticipated Party Under The Stars, and the historic Concorso d’Eleganza where the beautiful lawns of The Breakers in Palm Beach flourished with over 150 of the world’s rarest and perfectly restored or carefully preserved Ferraris. Over 70 cars received awards for the vehicles based on originality, authenticity, condition, and overall style.
The event also featured dynamic sessions with experts and collectors, in addition to exhibitions in partnership with Riva Yacht, Bang & Olufsen, Schedoni Modena, RM Sotheby’s, Richard Mille and Hedley Studios.
The weekend closed with the Classic & Sports Sunday car show and charity brunch at the legendary Marjorie Merriweather Post mansion in old Palm Beach, Mar-a-Lago Club. Stunning classic cars of all marques, and rare modern luxury, or sports cars of Italian provenance were on display.
