There were more in front of that first Veyron, but I didn’t record the whole procession

I’m not an all-out Koenigsegg stan, but the CC850 is my favorite car in the current lineup!

Those are class hosts in the orange hats (which I learned thanks to intel from one of them!)

480 horsepower, curb weight around 2600 lbs., five-speed manual. A modern take on Edsel Ford’s Model 40 one-off from 1934

The black car was used by Clark Gable, the gray one by Gary Cooper. I briefly met the owner of the former, Harry Yeaggy, who won Pebble Beach’s 2026 “Best of Show” afterwards. He also owns the Mormon Meteor Duesenberg. That’s a different animal to these, obviously, but seeing the two sportiest production Duesenbergs was a treat!

This is Tucker no. 30, owned by the Petersen Museum in Los Angeles. I took this clip today in the aftermath of Monterey Car Week’s Quail event

Created in 1948 by the firm better known for the Divan. Three prototypes were built on the Divan chassis for military consideration, as a last-ditch effort to save the company

This is the Bring a Trailer listing: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1983-lamborghini-countach-lp500s-2/ — ownership details match the info in Doug’s “I Bought a Lamborghini Countach!” video and it’s the engine number seen in the documents he flips through, 12548

I’m writing a piece concerning Duesenbergs, and I was able to shoot photos of/ride in this one, J269, for my work. Quite an honor!
