"The styling was a bold departure from the traditional Pininfarina restraint of hand. Here was a car to compete with the Lamborghini Countach on road, track and the bedroom walls of teenage boys." Source: Program Guide

The Concorso has raised more than S1 million for the Connecticut Children's Medical Center. There is a "Parade of Kids." The kids are picked up at the Children's Center and ride to West Hartford Center in the show cars and then return in them. They each recieve a stuffed teddy bear and become honorary Italian Citizens.
