Ranging from early production to mid-1960s Italian race cars, the winner of the inaugural Peninsula Classics Best of the Best Award will be announced at a private dinner during the Monterey Car Week on Tuesday, August 16, 2016.<\/p>\n<p>The Hon. Sir Michael Kadoorie, Chairman of The Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels, Limited, and parent company of The Peninsula Hotels, together with award co-founders Christian Philippsen, William E. \u201cChip\u201d Connor and Bruce Meyer, created this award in the spirit of celebrating the best of what defines the automotive world for the year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are delighted to pay homage to the finest attributes of the motorcar as we celebrate this year\u2019s The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering,\u201d said Kadoorie. \u201cThe Peninsula Classics Best of the Best Award marks a new milestone as the first of many extraordinary presentations of the most elite cars on the concours circuit. We are proud that the success of the Quail Event over the years has given rise to The Peninsula Classics Best of the Best Award which will add to the prestige of the Peninsula tradition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The finalists chosen to be showcased at the event are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>1903 Mercedes 60HP Simplex: Royal Concours of Elegance<\/strong> &#8211; One of four in existence, having been preceded by the Mercedes 35hp, which had once been the fastest production car in the world. It remains Mercedes&#8217; top of the range model, having also been named Best in Show at the Royal Concours of Elegance.<\/li>\n<li><strong>1932 Isotta Fraschini Tipo 8A S Sport Cabriolet: Pebble Beach Concours d\u2019Elegance<\/strong> &#8211; This car has had only four owners from new, and it has lived a quiet life in Switzerland and France its entire life until coming to North America in 2014.<\/li>\n<li><strong>1930 Cord L29 Brooks Stevens Speedster: Amelia Island Concours d\u2019Elegance<\/strong> &#8211; Before taking home Best of Show at the 20th Annual Amelia Island Concours d\u2019Elegance, this hot rod was heralded as defining the mid-century American aesthetic in the automotive industry.<\/li>\n<li><strong>1937 Talbot-Lago T150C SS \u2018Goutte d\u2019Eau\u2019: Goodwood Cartier Style et Luxe<\/strong> &#8211; This coachwork by Figoni et Falaschi has won prizes at every major concours in pre-war Europe and is famed for having both redefined automotive style and having won top-level races. The \u2018Teardrop\u2019 became trend setting and motivated many other French manufacturers to consider a similar streamlined design.<\/li>\n<li><strong>1965 Ferrari 166 P \/ 206 SP Dino 0834: Cavallino Classic<\/strong> &#8211; This one-of-a-kind Dino was first entered by Scuderia Ferrari in 1965 and raced by Giancarlo Baghetti and later by Ludovico Scarfiotti to many wins over its long history.<\/li>\n<li><strong>1968 Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 Stradale: The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering<\/strong> &#8211; Since its restoration in 2004, this Tipo 33 Stradale has won four top honors, including Best in Show at the 2015 Quail.<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a
