356A Speedster wins "Most Iconic Car" at big show | 356 Speedster, 550 Spyder, Replica, Automotive Community

I couldnt go to Concorso d'Eleganza this year, but I did follow the show and the winners. Ironically, this years winner for "Most Iconic Car" was a Porsche 1957 356A Speedster. See here: http://www.bbc.com/autos/story...lassics-on-lake-como

"Held annually on the shore of Lake Como in Italy, the Concorso d'Eleganza at Villa d'Este ranks as the world's most exclusive car show, featuring vehicles often not seen in public for years. This year, the top prize went home with designer Ralph Lauren and his 1938 Bugatti 57SC Atlantic, one of the world's most expensive cars".

I know, per the story these cars are not seen in public for years! I agree, I had to walk out to the garage, past the surly dog, the other cars, pull the car cover just to see one!

Does this make Carlisle:

"The Best Iconic Gathering of Replicas of the Best Iconic Car at the 2013 Concorso d'Eleganza!"

Put that on a T shirt with some art work. Maybe not.
