PCA-SAR Overnight Tour to AZ Concours D'Elegance
The Arizona BiltmoreAbout this event
IT'S TOUR TIME !!
As you may have guessed from the BIG orange logo above this year our January 14-15th over-nighter will be a visit to the stunning Arizona Biltmore and the world class cars of the Arizona Concours D'Elegance!
But wait… there’s more –
The concours is on Sunday so how do we make it an overnighter you ask. Simple, we go up to Scottsdale Saturday morning via Florence (no I-10 this time :) ) and hook up with some of our friends from the AZ Region. Then we proceed to the incredible
for a private catered lunch and guided tour of a Phoenix landmark and "Point of Pride."
Overnight accommodations have been arranged with the Holiday Inn Express Scottsdale with a special PCA rate. Rooms are limited so book early once registration opens in mid-November.
Now, on to Sunday –
We meet that morning @ the Biltmore Golf Club. The kind folks the Adobe Restaurant are providing us with a sumptuous buffet breakfast and RESERVED PARKING! If you have been to this event in the past or have joined us on our outings to Barrett-Jackson you know that parking of any sort is a pain. So, special parking just across the footbridge from the show field is a real coup! The rest of the day is all about enjoying an unparalleled display of some of the finest motorcars on the planet. Among this year’s features are Lincolns of the Classic Era, Coachwork by Vignale and the Cars of Ettore & Jean Bugatti.
The homeward journey is at your discretion.
This, like our past trips to Barrett-Jackson, is a truly special opportunity and would be next to impossible to recreate on your own. This is one of the many benefits of being part of a club with the reputation and respect accorded the Porsche Club of America. We get inside “ the velvet rope”. Stay tuned to the PCA-SAR website, Facebook page, etc. for more details as they become available. Registration with be through Motorsportreg.com. So take advantage of those dues you’ve been payin’ &
DON’T MISS OUT ON THIS ONE !!
This tour will be offered a la carte, meaning that you can sign up for just the Wrigley Mansion lunch/tour, just the breakfast/Az. Concours portion or the whole shindig. Whatever interests you.
See You There !
Due to popular demand we have devised a meeting place in Scottsdale on the morning of the tour. We will meet the AZ Region folks @ Four Til Four, a Porsche themed coffee shop in Old Town Scottsdale at around 10:00. See link below for location. After a bit of refreshment and schmoozing we will proceed to Wrigley Mansion as a group. Stay tuned for further details.
