ack for a second year, the Ramapo Concours d’Elegance drew more than 750 automobile enthusiasts to view nearly 85 rare and luxury cars at the Ramapo College campus in Mahwah. Judges awarded prizes in a number of categories, highlighting vintage BMW models, ’60s American muscle cars, retired race cars, rally cars, microcars, and Lamborghinis and Ferraris, among others. Another portion of the two-day affair, the Sunday Concours Drive, took attendees in new and vintage cars on a scenic route from Ramapo College to a luncheon at The Thayer Hotel in West Point, N.Y. Proceeds from the Concours and Drive events benefit Ramapo College and the HackensackUMC Foundation. Event sponsors included The Prestige Family of Fine Cars, Konica Minolta, Lime Rock Park, Tiffany & Co., Garden State Plaza, Vanguard, Lincoln Tech, Sonic Tools, Petty’s Garage, Spindrift Classics, Garik, Infante Associates and Legends Car management.
