    Default Amelia Island Concours D'Elegance 2010...It's all here folks.

    Just got back, only about half the show, my battery died.

    Here's some snapshots.





































































































    Obviously these are quanity>quality, but hopefully you found something you liked. This is maybe 1/20th of the cars that were present.

    My camera died before we got to the showgrounds, and I had accidentally grabbed a spare dead battery. Photog Fail.

    Oh, and all that too say, they were giving Panamera test drives, and they don't look near as bad in person.

    First time in 55 years a Mercedes road car can be parked next to a 300SL and gather respect.

    MB is really showing off that SLS. I've seen them all over the place over the past few weeks. Great looking car though.

    I really wanted to go to this but I'm a little far away at the moment. Thanks for taking pics and sharing though!

    And I think the Panamera is hideous. I think they are starting to flock in my neighborhood because I'm seeing 4 or 5 of them per day. I see the front coming at me and get excited and then.... awwwwwwwwwww... major let down. dammit. lol

    Dude, you have no idea.

    We were sitting on a hill on the golf course and could hear the cars coming before they came down to set up for the show. There was a bright green Challenger race car that we literally heard for a full 3 minutes before we actually saw it. I would have literally emptied my checking out for 10 minutes with the car.

    But he probably already had that money crumpled up in his khaki pocket.
