Monterey Car Week 2012
Next week is arguably the World's Largest Car Week of the year.
Anyone from around here going? If you have never gone and call yourself a "Car Guy" you owe it to yourself to go at least once in your life. I try to go every year, a small group of enthusiast will caravan and take back roads all of the way up and down with a ton of spirited driving. Driving Events:
Concours:
Auctions:
Other Events:

I'm watching Street Signs (CNBC) right now and they just had a segment that this car show will have the rarests/most expensive cars on earth. It must be a big deal to have coverage on Street Signs.

There is also a "rally" through the winding hills of Carmel Valley tomorrow. Several M cars, classics and exotics. Last year the highlights were a GT2, Lamborghini, GTR, X6M, ect.
I have to put my race wheels on for this kind of fun! And I am a Monterey local so have hookups for Laguna Seca tix. Usually I also have hotel hookups but they are all sold out now.

I was planning to drive down to Monterey Car Week from SF on Sat. If any other SF M's happen to be going down as well send me a PM and we can caravan. I'm open to leaving anytime from 11am to 2pm.

I'm planning to go to this next year and i have some questions.
Are most of the events free? I was looking at their website and it looks like tickets are $200? How much would you have to spend if you wanted to go to most/all of the better events? Thanks |
