Greenwich Concours d’Elegance completed another successful event showcasing some of the most beautiful automobiles of yesterday and today. This year did not disappoint as Chairwoman Mary Wennerstrom showcased the Zagato designs. To compliment the occasion Andrea Zagato and Marella Rivolta Zagato were on hand to celebrate the design house’s 100th year and the Concours gave the public a chance to see a wonderful collection of the various Zagato designs.

The Zagatos on display included Porsche, Fiat, Nissan, Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Lancia and Jaguars and many others.

Day one was dedicated to American made autos and day two showcased imports. No matter your taste both days were a feast for the eyes not only for auto enthusiasts but also those who love unique motorcycles in this Northeast premiere event.

 

 

The Zagatos on display were joined by an amazing array of Bentleys, Arnolts. There was an Arnold Aston Martin, Arnolt Bristols and Arnold MGs.

It’s a wrap for this year. Join us next year for the ultimate Northeast car show. This show is a must see and if you have never attended you should set aside the first weekend of June 2020 for an event you won’t forget.
