    What should I expect for the BH Concours? Huge crowds? Any unlisted venues worth going to? Dad's coming to town from the east coast, so I thought this would be a cool event for us to head to. It's on Fathers Day, June 21.

    Welcome to Fchat. It's a nice way to spend an hour or two, then you can go have lunch somewhere in the area.

    Not huge crowds but good to get there early. I usually have breakfast and then stroll down the street. An hour or two will be more than enough to see everything.

    I stay in Koreatown (well, almost past tense--moving to the IE for work), but don't know the best breakfast spots in BH. Any recommendations?

    Well then, welcome to F-Chat and welcome to the IE!

    A couple of breakfast suggestions in that area: L’Amande is a great little French bakery with pastries and some breakfast selections. For a larger breakfast menu, try The Farm of Beverly Hills. You won't go wrong with either.

    Is this a good event to drive from Phoenix for? Thinking about coming out with some friends to get away from the heat.

    Breakfast at "The Blvd" inside the Beverly Wilshire. Pricey but entertainment value is priceless.

    This is usually a cool event - you may see something that you won't see elsewhere. But whether its worth coming all the way from Phoenix for, you'll need to decide. There's always Supercar Sunday to do beforehand.

    It should be fantastic this year. My F40 will be displayed along with some great cars. The food trucks provide a variety of yummy food.

    it is a very nice event and I go each year...but it is by no means a huge event and by no means a Ferrari only event. do know it is well attended and a very professionally put on event, befitting of rodeo drive. only you can determine if the drive is worth it but I do suspect you could make a lovely day of it!

    There's nothing worth driving to or from Phoenix. Head over to sky harbor and call 1-800-iflyswa.

    It is a fun show though.

    I usually arrive early and have breakfast but my daughter I morning plans so a lunch time arrival this year. Parking won't be any fun but more time with my daughter is always a reward.

    Great pictures Kevin. I got there around 9am and had a blast before the crazy crowd came. Crappy cell phone pictures of some of my favorites.

    Wasn't too impressed with the wide range of cars this year. Besides the F-Cars, only a few cars impressed me. Just My Opinion.

    Am I correct that yours was featured at the north end of Rodeo? If so, it was a gorgeous example. If you ever need someone to keep the passenger seat warm, I can help out, and lunch will be on me.
