Like most premier vintage car shows, The Quail: A Motorsports Gathering during the annual Monterey Car Week is an arrangement of precious cars on luscious lawns, museum cars sans museum. It’s also $600 per head to attend. But anyone who’s ever been to The Quail also knows that the show doesn’t wait to start until you walk through the gates—no, the spectacle begins as soon as you drive into the “parking lot,” the manicured fairways of the Quail’s golf course, where you’ll see hundreds of rare and occasionally priceless automobiles mixing it up with rented Dodge Journeys and Kia Optimas. And it is there that many of the most interesting cars of the day can be seen and enjoyed . . . for free.

And so this year, in addition to bringing you coverage of the show itself—which was fabulous, of course—we also spent a good couple of hours prowling the parking areas to capture some of the four-wheeled fantasy rides that the fancy folks left outside. Think of it like an Easter egg hunt, only with finding vintage Ferraris and rare Aston Martins as the goal.
