    Nice capture, Chris, but your French leaves something to be desired. The term is "Concours d'Elégance". Dropping the accent may be acceptable in English context, but the "de' + space" is a barbarism (error in morphology).

    I took Spanish in High School and was miserably passable in that..French...I shall remove the e in d' as it was more an oversight than deliberation...and yes, to be honest, I am a barbarian at heart

    hehehe...Janis is my friend... (No she doesn't know what I am referring to...)

    That aside, yes --I did expect not just cars but a golfing venue somewhere in Amelia Island. Good shot.
