The fourth annual Pinehurst Concours d’Elegance, scheduled for April 29-30, 2016, on the fairways of the Pinehurst Resort in Pinehurst, North Carolina, will feature Future Japanese Collectables, such as the Toyota 2000 GT (above), among its 12 judged classes.
Those classes include: Pre-War American (Open & Closed Until 1942); Post-War American (Open & Closed Until 1974); Pre-War European (Open & Closed Until 1942); Post-War European (Open & Closed Until 1974); Ferrari (Until 1975); Porsche (Air-Cooled Cars) Until 1988; Corvette (Until 1972); Pre-War French Curves; Future Japanese Collectables; Racing Cars; Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Coupe & Roadster (1954-1963) and Indian Motorcycles.
“There really is something for everybody, young and old,” said the Concours’ chief Judge, Nigel Matthews. “The Ferrari class will continue to be absolutely amazing with just multi-million dollar cars. That’s where the collector car market seems to be right now. And the interest in Porsches is really strong as they are commanding skyrocketing values now. There is always interest in the pre-war American classics — that’s just a part of American history and culture. What we’ve tried to do is capture all of the different eras and interest in automotive history with our 12 classes.”
Tickets to the 2016 Pinehurst Concours are now on sale online at www.pinehurstconcours.com at an introductory price of $30 per ticket, which includes entry into the post-awards concert by Motown legends The Commodores.
