Anyone going to the Greenwich (CT) Concours, June 2 and 3?
The show has an interesting format, imports on Saturday and American cars on Sunday. Their updated website is not yet done but you can see cars from prior years at: http://www.greenwich.com.

Indeed. Miami week before, then immediately after to Prague for a week then Hong Kong. Shall I look up and stop by Gary of eBay Gary's Model fame?
Tom, I didn't know you were interested in Concours events.

Absolutely. Went to Pebble Beach in 2009- excellent & heightened interest. Have wanted to attend
Amelia Island for at least past 5 years (thanks in no small part to EM's reports) but timing invariably doesn't work. Same with Meadowbrook/ Plymouth - now through June is annual work 'busy season'. Additionally, 'Chasing Classic Cars' has highlighted Greenwich and other East Coast events over past few years. Certainly piques interest.
Annual Woodward Dream Cruise is during August and, while not such a pristine event, is of a similar underlying nature- many motor vehicles of varying types gathered in a common place along with attendees sharing similar interests. I do try and go every year - as should all of you.
If you like cars, you gotta love concours events!
The last few years Amelia Island has even had a few model dealers, primarily 1:43's.
