Event Coverage Pebble Beach 2011....

A friend and I Flew to California last Thursday to take in several car events during 'Car Week'.
Went to 3 auctions with cars ranging in price up to $16.39 million.
Took in the 'Concour's D'Elegance' ,Laguna Raceway and visited several local towns and small show and shines.
In my opinion as stated earlier this is without question the most impressive car collection on the planet and is something I would recommend everybody try and take in.
One thing I never got a picture of was the first night we went to eat at Cannery row and there were 6 Bugatti Veyrons parked on the side of the street with an estimated value of 10 million.
Lots of pictures.
Laguna was celebrating a Ferrari and rumour has it at one time there was close to $100 million driving the track.

Great stuff Bob, you mind if I add these to the "Old Cars on a Golf Course" thread I started, keep em all together that way....

I got pictures of this last year...its mega $$$$ apparently

 

No problems here..move them where they should be.
I saw that truck..it was unbelieveable.

 

The guy who drives is says its one of maybe 5 built so far, as its somewhere round an extra $25000 on top of the price of a top line rig!

I'll add the pics...Thanks

Thanx for the pix. One question... who won the POS award? Somewhere down on the first link's pix were a grouping of cars that were, for the lack of a better word, unusual. The VW based Bugatti, the Opel GT painted like a vette, etc. Was there a show within the show then? Gary

 

How about a video...

Did you happen to get any photos of a Maroon 32 roadster with gold Halibrand wheels at Laguna, it was parked in the pit across from Edelbrock's truck? I took a couple photos but can't locate them...Thanks.

 

I could only find this one Pickle...

 

Thanks for looking...not the car I was looking for but it looks rather nice!

Cheers...
