Over 1,700 Classic Cars Roll Down Mexico City Street

Classic car enthusiasts have broken a Guinness world record for the biggest parade of classic cars, lining up 1,721 shining Mustangs and Cadillac as well as cheerily decorated Volkswagen Beetles.

"It's amazing, we seek the extraordinary in the ordinary," Guinness World Records adjudicator Evelyn Carrera told AFP.
Sunday's feat eclipsed the previous record set in 2002 in Zandvoort in The Netherlands, with 948 vehicles.

The Mexico City government said in a statement that the parade turned the Paseo de la Reforma avenue that runs through the heart of the capital into an "authentic and rolling museum".
