Nice to see a 599 GTO winning a Concours. Thanks for sharing!

I never really understood how you can compete in a concours competition with cars that are brand new?..

Are there rules that you have to have driven your car X miles before you can enter?
Otherwise you can buy a new supercar two days before the event, have a detailer come and polish it to perfection, and win. What's the point of that?

It is confusing...this car won its class called "future classics" and was up against two other brand new cars (Ferrari FF & McLaren MP4-12C). From what I am told it mainly depends on how the car compares to the rest, how clean it is and many other things. Like I said before it is very confusing.

Beautiful 599. I don't care about the event....although it's nice to win that's not my thing. The car is simply stunning.
