3rd place in the Inaugural Founders Region Inagural Concours d' Elegance
Congrats on the trophy!
I never thought I cared about awards but one year, I entered a car at the Monterey Legends of the Autobahn show. I only entered for the shirt and better parking but ended up winning something the second time I did it. I checked out all the cars, mingled with some buddies and drank some beer. I was ready to bail by noon but when I went to leave, I had an award notice on the windshield. It's always nice to have your efforts recognized.
I still only enter for the better parking but I do spend more time to make them look pretty.
Thank you and so true. My son said isn’t it great when you don’t expect something. I’ve been on the other side of the coin with sigfest and my former e30 m3’s.
We were in the same situation with wanting to leave. It was hot and we were like well no way we can win. Let’s just bolt, don’t want to wait another 2 hours… my son said maybe they will announce early and sure enough they did.

Beauty 530i. I owned one for a time back in the early 80's. Great touring car and really good on maintenance. I owned a 2002ti before the 530i and the 2002 was always in the shop. Bought it new too.
Well... popped my flatbed cherry today. Water pump gave out last weekend. At least she looks good up there!
The best part was learning that my front bumper is misaligned just enough suchthat the tow hook won't go in past the first thread or so. Grateful the operator had some 2x6's to help keep the front lip intact.
