On a normal day you will see plenty of $100,000+ vehicles in Greenwich, Connecticut, but a special annual event there this weekend will bring in vehicles that cost more than a Thimble Island. The 2025 Greenwich Concours d'Elegance (Competition of Elegance) is a three-day event (Friday to Sunday, May 30 - June 1, 2025) will take place on the Gold Coast in Roger Sherman Baldwin Park. This is the 29th Annual event, (Since 1996) and it kicks off today with 'The Grand Tour', where entrants wheel their incredible machines away from some of the most congested roadways in the United States through Greenwich, Port Chester, and even Stamford if you're lucky. Attendees could also sign up for a Ride & Drive to get behind the wheel of a BMW, Maserati, Lotus, or Cadillac.
