I take it this general section is for any cars, while the sub-forums are the ones that are CB-only? I do a lot of car photography when I can; I'll get up some shots of this year's Tuner Mayhem at Bandimere Speedway soon.
Concours d'Elegance 2013
Littleton, CO
June 9, 2013
You can check out the full gallery on my Flickr I just set up, but here are some favorites from the show:
Shelby GT. I'm a huge Mustang fan, and if I were to get any fifth-gen - money no object - this would be the one.
I wouldn't actually want to own one... but it's gorgeous and makes a glorious noise. You can't not like it.
Porsche was the featured marque this year.
The only supercar I wouldn't want to wear a paper bag on my head if I owned one.
S2000 SCCA racer
I was making my rounds through the show, trying to do it in an orderly fashion to make sure I saw everything when this popped up in the corner of my vision. Had to run over and see it. Merc 190E 2.5 16... Cosworth! These cars were originally created with the intention of racing in WRC Group B rallying, but then Audi came out with the all-wheel-drive Quattro that dominated everything, and then Group B cars got so fast they were killing drivers and spectators and the whole program was shut down. So these (well, the Evolution models) were used as Touring Car racers.
Lola T70 Mk3 B
A legit Lotus Seven. The blue one is a Caterham, the popular replica that you can either buy complete or as a kit and build yourself.
C 63 Black Series
McLaren 722 Edition
A Golf and a Jetta VR6 Coupe
Kit cars. The grey one has a new 5.0 in it.
Jaguar C-type. While it's not "real," it is an exact recreation with the exception of the all-carbon fiber body.
Diablo
Jaguar's new F-type. F****** gorgeous.
AMC Javelin AMX
Fairly large group of NSXs. While the one in the background is supposedly a rare original black-and-white car, the Type-R parts are all Seibon.

This Shelby Mustang GT350S is the 1966 prototype supercharged GT350 and the first Shelby Mustang to be painted a color other than Wimbledon White. It is the only GT350-S made by Shelby American.
This Cobra, one of only two in the world, was built for autocross and high performance street driving. It was set up for SCCA racing in the late 1960's and eventually became a vintage race car. A restoration was recently completed using the original body with an oil cooler scoop and early 289 competition flares added as a nod to its early race years.
