If there is one event a true aficionado of the automobile and aspiring collector must attend, it is the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, and lucky for us our member and photographer Stephan Bauer was able to attend on our behalf to shoot some incredible photographs. Jay Leno is even quoted as saying this is the best car show in the world and after viewing these images from Stephan we couldn't agree more.

As noted by the events official site, "Once each year, on the third Sunday in August, about 200 of the most prized collector cars and motorcycles in the world roll onto what is often called the best finishing hole in golf — the famed eighteenth fairway at Pebble Beach. Tire meets turf and transformation occurs: the stage is set for one of the most competitive events in the automotive world. The occasion is the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.

Originally a small social event paired with a road race through the pine and cypress forests of Pebble Beach, the Pebble Beach Concours has grown into the top-ranking collector car show in the world. People from all over the globe come to compete in or simply enjoy the event here at Pebble Beach.

The Concours is not a contest of speed, but of excellence. Automobiles and motorcycles are judged for their historical accuracy, their technical merit and their style—and the best garner reward and recognition."
