Has anyone here ever gone to the Concours d'Elegegance of America? It's outside of Detroit in the suburb of Plymouth:

I wanted to go last year but got busy with work. I am planning to go this year but was curious if anyone has ever gone and what they thought of it. It's about a 4-5 hour drive for me, so gas, hotels, food, etc. Trying to decide if it's worth it or not.

Looks like good time. Remembers me of a Delahaye 235 convertible by Chapron

win such a concour in the 50's, still one of the most elegant convertible to me!

Delahaye in general were always stylish and trend setters. To bad there are not more around like them ...

Well, after war France was not good for luxury brands like Delahaye or Hotchkiss (plus some bad gestion), or Talbot. Delahaye had decent engine at the time.
