A huge percentage of the best of the best of the automotive universe is on the Monterey peninsula this week, and kicking off the festivities is the McCall Motorworks Revival at the Monterey Jet Center.

Mixing airplanes with automobiles and plenty of high-end hob-mobbing, the McCall Motorworks Revival is the place to see and be seen in the days leading up to the 2013 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It's also a great place to see some of the hottest cars in the world, from both the past and the present.

Among the cars on display were the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S and Vanquish Volante, both making their U.S. debuts, plus a selection of classic race cars and one of our personal favorites, the latest addition to the Singer 911 fold.

Painted in a muted representation of the Gulf Oil colors, the newest Singer 911 is making the rounds before heading off to its owner in Dubai later this year.

Check out the gallery for more of the sights from the Monterey Jet Center, and stay tuned for even more automotive excellence throughout the weekend, which you can access via our Pebble Beach hub.
