Tour Auto 2010 and Suixtil are all about high end lifestyle.

C’est parti! This week, starting in Paris – Jardin des Tuileries – this Monday, the 19^th Tour Auto Optic 2ooo will drag its participants towards the Mediterranean, through a brand new itinerary.

An impressive list of some 280+ cars will take the auto racing tour in either competition or regularity class. Three of the five stages will be totally new to the Tour Auto.

First stop in Vichy, the route will then lead to Lyon and Megève before reaching Aix en Provence, which will be the last break before the finish in Beaulieu-sur-Mer.

The grid will be worthy of a special celebration, as seventeen Ferrari 250GT SWB ‘s will pay tribute to the 50th anniversary of their first victory in the Tour de France Automobile. It is the Ferrari 250GT Berlinetta however, which is indisputably one of the cars making a lasting impression on the French rally; three years of total domination in the early sixties.

Another icon that will travel the 19^th edition of the Tour Auto will be Suixtil at Life Speed, the heritage lifestyle line selling pants, jackets, sweaters, shirts, polo’s and accessories. The Suixtil team endeavors to create their ‘Heritage Line’ with styles that are faithful to their original designs of the 50 ‘s.

Their designers strive to achieve the highest degree of comfort by crafting garments and accessories made of select high quality fabrics and tailored to give one a perfect fit and constant enjoyment. This was already recognized by great heroes of the past, for example  Fangio gladly gave away his Suixtil racing pants and shirts to other Formula One challengers and as a result the Suixtil racing gear soon became the ‘must have’ outfit for any racing driver in Europe and the Americas, as it was the very first generation of a professional racing gear.
