Just passing this along since I know there are a couple of us in CT.  Sadly I won't be able to make it tomorrow, but I'll be at the May event.  simply put: this is the best car show I've ever attended.  There's something that makes me tingle seeing a Triumph Spitfire parked next to an F40

No affiliation.  Free admission. Wild variety.

I will second Brotus7’s endorsement of this event. This is New Canaan Connecticut, which was once the wealthiest community in the nation. You will see cars parked on the street that are not just Pebble Beach quality, but that have actually been displayed at Pebble Beach. And there are hundreds and hundreds of cars here.

A few years ago at this event, I got into a New Canaan traffic jam: My 911 was stuck between a ‘67 Ferrari 330 and a Lamborghini Miura.

I'll 3rd the endorsement. I've been known to drive 4 hours each way from Vermont for this show, and its WELL worth it.

Was another great Caffeine and Carburetors!  Echoing the prior comments, this is definitely one of the best car shows around at any price.  Great cars and good family vibe.  I live in the next town over and have been taking my kids for years.  I was parked in the lot with the M (Z3) Coupes.
