Over the weekend, some of the most impressive and beautiful classic cars in the world headed to Monterey, California for the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, held on the 18th fairway of the famous golf course.
The annual contest is designed to highlight and reward the best preserved or restored, most historically valuable vehicles. Every competing car must be driveable. This year, 248 vehicles vied for first place.
But to win its class, let alone Best of Show, a car must above all be elegant, which the Concours calls a "matter of the eye and the heart."
The classic car show is a magnet for brands like Aston Martin, which celebrated its 100th birthday with the US debut of its CC100 Speedster Concept (right).
Lincoln chose Pebble Beach to introduce new 'Black Label' premium versions of its current models.

There's no set dress code, and the Concours website says 'styles range from dressy to resort casual.'
