Legends Of The Autobahn® is an all-German marque Concours d’Elegance held in beautiful Seaside, California on Thursday, August 15. Legends is hosted by the BMW Car Club of America, the Mercedes-Benz Club of America, and the Audi Club of North America. The annual concours events offer both corral and judged areas, awards for all three featured marques, and an open class for all other German-made cars. The show field also features displays from manufacturers, sponsors, and vendors. Each year, the concours draws hundreds of cars and thousands of spectators that fill the show field. Spectators are regularly greeted by rare and historically significant models, as well as factory-prepared specials. The Legends Of The Autobahn® concours has become a national sensation among German car enthusiasts with widespread coverage in the automotive media. In 2011 the event gained international recognition with the North American debut of the BMW 328 Hommage concept car. In 2012 we saw the debut of BMW’s Zagato Z4 Roadster concept, and in 2014 we saw the unveiling of the highly-anticipated M4 GTS concept car and we are eager for more debuts in the coming years.

Dammit, all the good shows are on the west coast... 3K miles away. Maybe I should consider moving... nah, hurricane season is firing up, I'll have enough excitement for a few months.

Sadly I was not ready for MidAmerica or the Vintage this year, but I will be there next year!

We average 45-50 judged BMWs each year, this year we have 52.  This venue has more room and is where the event used to be held in conjunction with Concorso in 2007-09 as I recall.  The PG Golf Course wanted more money unfortunately but this show will be great.
