Hilton Head Welcomes the Concours d'Elegance Motoring Festival

Concours d'Elegance
Sunday, November 7, 2010
9: 00am - 4:00pm

The first Sunday of November... the centerpiece of the Motoring Festival... the Concours d'Elegance. One Hundred and Fifty vintage vehicles, many of the finest in the world, will line the fields of Honey Horn, a historic Southern plantation, under the spreading oaks and flowing Spanish Moss characteristic of the South Carolina Lowcountry to compete for the coveted title of 'Best of Show.'

ResortQuest Hilton Head Island offers a full selection of Hilton Head vacation rentals and lodging packages for the Concours d'Elegance event.

Believed to be by many Concours d'Elegance judges, exhibitors and enthusiasts as one of the top few events in the country, Hilton Head Island will celebrate the iconic American marque of Chevrolet as the 2010 Honored Marque including a special class of Corvairs to celebrate its 50th Anniversary. In addition, Hilton Head Island will also feature Brass Era Cars, Motorcycles and Micro Cars as well as offer special anniversary classes for both Jaguar E-Class (50th) and Alfa Romeo (100th).

2009 Best of Show was awarded to a 1933 Rolls-Royce Couple owned by Frank & Milli Ricciardelli of Monmouth Beach, NJ. Other top honors from the eighth annual Concours d'Elegance included People's Choice (1932 Packard Opera Coupe), Most Oustanding Pre-1948 Car (1914 Renault EF) and Most Outstanding Post-1948 Car (1957 Ford Thunderbird).
