About the 1959 Facel Vega HK500

The HK500 represents Facel Vega at its absolute peak, the most powerful and refined expression of Jean Daninos' Franco-American dream. With Chrysler's potent 6.3-liter V8 producing 360 horsepower, the HK500 could outrun most contemporary Ferraris while coddling occupants in Parisian luxury. Only 490 were built during its brief three-year run, making it significantly rarer than many celebrated Italian exotics. The combination of genuine 147-mph performance, exquisite hand-built quality, and devastating good looks made it the choice of discerning enthusiasts like Stirling Moss and Pablo Picasso. Today's collectors increasingly recognize the HK500 as one of the great postwar GTs, with values climbing steadily as more discover this sophisticated alternative to Maranello's offerings.
