ELEGANCE IN MOTION
1956 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Alloy
A masterclass in subtle performance — the 1956 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Alloy took home top honors. One of just 29 lightweight “Alloy” Gullwings ever built, it blends motorsport pedigree with timeless design. A true icon in motion.
President’s Award
1973 Ferrari 365 GTS/4 Daytona Spyder
1 of 122 built. Delivered new to Geneva, still showing just 3,862 miles. Classiche certified and finished in Marrone over black leather.
Jury’s Choice
1938 Lancia Astura Gran Lusso by Pininfarina
