Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance

The 2012 MINI Cooper Coupe (and its S and John Cooper Works variants) have been revealed in detail already, and we know they'll start at $22,000 in the U.S., too. But as yet, we haven't seen the hardtop two-seater in production form in the U.S.--a fact MINI USA will be fixing at Pebble Beach in...

The rare 1955 Ferrari 750 Monza Spider up for sale at the 2011 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance was once owned by Fred Astaire and featured in the film 'On the Beach'.

This prototype stretch limousine, built specifically for the safety of Pope Paul VI, was also used as a parade vehicle for Apollo astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Jim Lovell. Astronauts, the pope, and a 1964 Lincoln Continental. It's like the most random, yet awesome, trifecta...

The 2013 Lexus GS 350 will be unveiled later this month just ahead of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, complete with a live stream via Facebook. Today, we get the first official teaser image of the car we've spied so many times. We've also seen the new GS showing its stuff on video, even...

If you're not already free the evening of August 18th, you might want to shuffle some things around: Lexus will be broadcasting the unveiling of the 2013 GS live, with a special preview to Facebook fans starting 30 minutes early. The debut event will happen in Pebble Beach, just ahead of the...

Question: what does a 2013 Lexus GS look like attacking an autocross-style course in full camouflage? Answer: see below. Despite the rather weak music overlaid on the video, we do get to hear some sounds of mild tire scrub in the video below, though the engine/exhaust note is too muted to make it...

The Ferrari 250 GTO sculpture is just one of Swiss artist Dante's golden creations, the others being a Mercedes-Benz 300SL and Aston Martin DB5.

With a classic collector car like the 1959 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL, there's always a good reason to buy the car: the car itself. But this time, there's an additional incentive to keep bidding, and it doesn't have anything to do with collectibility or simple aesthetics. The proceeds will go to benefit...

After the LF-Gh Hybrid Concept at the New York Auto Show and the spy shots we've captured of the car in testing, the shape of the next Lexus GS sedan is taking pretty clear shape. We only have about a month left to wait to see the final product, as Lexus officially announced today that it will show...

A 1969 Chevrolet "Stars And Stripes" L88 ZL-1 Corvette will be crossing the block at RM Auctions Monterey event.

When it comes to rare classic cars selling at auction, few can match Bugatti’s ability to draw in the multi-million dollar bids as we’ve seen in the recent past. The current record for a car sold at auction goes to this 1936 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic, which fetched an undisclosed sum...

Your chance to own a piece of automotive history will take place this August at the 2011 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. Auction company Gooding & Company will be selling what’s believed to be the very first production Bentley, a 1921 Bentley 3-Liter with chassis number 3. Bentley...

Today's Ferraris are often raced, and even those that aren't can lay strong claim to the racing heritage and ongoing F1 development within the company. But the tradition of building special models just for homologation in sports car racing has largely died off, leaving icons like the 250 GTO to...

We first heard about the possibility of a new model from Infiniti dubbed the JX last August when it was revealed the premium Nissan division had trademarked the JX name. Now, on the eve of the 2011 New York Auto Show, Infiniti has released a new teaser of an upcoming luxury crossover that will be...

Something's up at Infiniti. We're just not sure what. Compared to its Asian luxury rivals, Lexus and Acura, Infiniti is usually pretty quiet. But over the past week or so, the brand has popped up in conversation several times -- notably, in rumors about more hybrid models and a new Essence sports...

  Man With Steering Wheel: ...And this, of course, is the steering wheel. Jay Leno: Ordinarily, that's connected to the car, right? MWSW: Ach! You Americans. Such kopfschmerzen you give me. How do you put up with it, Arnold? Arnold Schwarzenegger: ...Huh? MWSW: I asked how you put up with all the...

We're saving the write-up for tomorrow, but we thought we'd share some photos from the drive with you today.

Ancient cars, owners nearly as old, straw hats and pink trousers. While this might be the appearance of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance from the outside, that's not the whole story. It is, to a degree, an accurate stereotype, but nestled in amongst the Delages, Delahayes, Talbots, and Tatras...

There's more to see at Pebble than the Bugattis and Ferraris, though these representatives have few constituents. From the odd to the outstanding, and occasionally both at once, these cars represent the happy oddballs of one of the world's most important concourses. This 1958 Facel Vega Excellence...

There are so many simply beautiful Ferraris at Pebble Beach it's hard to pick any as a favorite, but these are some that caught our eye.
