Didn't see any De Tomasos in your pics, but a Mangusta won the Best Car of Show award (a first for any model De Tomaso)
Great News from the Concorso Italiano - Topic

Wish I could have made it this year and joined the other 26 Panteras that made it. Shooting for next year!

Sorry... If it makes any difference, my slideshow from last year's event had allot of De Tomasos. Concorso Italiano appeared to have much less cars than last year. Maybe due to the private, owners only 70 years of Ferrari event.

Every single venue was at least 2-3 times bigger than last year...I'm pooped and still recovering.

Car Week was a lot of fun as always. It was nice to see prices coming down at a few of the auctions - most notably Ferrari's which had gone stratospheric the last few years and some Porsches went for less than ranges indicated. E-types (nice ones) appeared to be holding their own.

XJ220...oh man. I've seen one in the exact same color in Moscow in the 1990s. Amazing!

I got to sit in the Project 8 SV. Very nice. Price of ~$187K is a surprise.

The orange project 8 specimen had the track setup (roll cage in lieu of back seats) - apparently not available that way in the US
