On Saturday, March 14, the Automotive Addicts team joined the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance in hosting Cars & Coffee at the Concours, presented by Heacock Classic Car Insurance. The Cars & Coffee show runs the day before the annual Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance, and this year’s event featured almost 350 classic and exotic cars from local clubs, displayed on the 10th and 18th fairways of the Golf Club of Amelia Island.

Cars & Coffee at the Concours allows individuals with clean vintage, exotic and collectible vehicles to gather on the same field used by cars entered in the concours d’elegance, without the need for historical significance, absolute originality, or perfection-level detailing. Showing a vehicle costs nothing, and the event is free to the public. Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance president Bill Warner views Cars & Coffee as a gift to the community, a tangible “thank you” for supporting the event and making the award-winning show, now in its 20th year, a reality.

Special thanks go to Bill Warner, the Amelia Island Concours staff, and the hundreds of volunteers who worked together to produce one of the finest Cars & Coffee shows imaginable.
