Thanks for the great pictures. I really enjoyed driving down and seeing all the great cars. However I did not think I would speak to and have my picture taken with Jay Leno as he drove through the crowd. That was awesome.(what kind of car was he driving anyway?) A great day admiring the cars and meeting fantastic people.

Sorry I couldn't make it, but it's a bit of a way from Salt Lake City. Anyone take some "etceterini" photos?

I have been going to the Best of France and Italy show for the last few years and I always enjoy it. I did attend today, and even though there are always mostly the same cars I still like seeing them. I also very much enjoy the French cars, and believe that those owners are even more brave than those of us who own Italian cars.

BUT, I am very disappointed that around 1:00 the exodus begins, and more than half of the cars are gone by 2:00-2:30, That really blows. I thought the show was till 4.

My 2 cents.

Did anyone catch a pic of Jay Leno's car this year? I came a bit late and missed it but I'd still love to see what he brought this time.

I heard it was a Bugatti of some sort.

Here's Leno's Bugatti:

I wish I coulda been there with you guys today. I went to the airport early this morning so I can catch an earlier flight but that didn't happen. I got there in time for the early flight, but there wasa huge line at the metal dectors so the flight left before I got to the gate. This was the first (and last) Woodley Park show I missed. My dad said he had a good time and enjoyed driving the GTA around all day while be chased by his employee in the 1900 Carrera Panamerica car.

I was there - don't ask how exactly but I've been doing a lot of driving this week. The unrestored Ferrari was a treat to see.

Was the owner of the 1900 Carrera car (Dirk) at the show? We were looking for him to say hello.
