The Hill Country Region PCA Concours d’Elegance is a gathering of Porsche automobiles and enthusiasts where the beauty and cleanliness of our Porsches are rated and scored with other cars in your designated division.

The term Concours d'Elegance is a term of French origin that means a competition of elegance and refers to an event where prestigious vehicles are displayed and judged.

Our events are based on the practical reality that most of us have many other priorities, limited time, and may well use our Porsches as daily-drivers. The odds are that most of the cars shown locally are prepared in a few hours and generally driven to the event prior to a final cleanup.

Participants will be judged on the cleanliness of their Porsche looking at the Exterior, Interior and Storage only, originality will not be judged, and neither will the Engine nor Undercarriage. This is not a Pebble Beach or Amelia Island affair!! The best way to approach the event is to imagine how your car came off the assembly line, floor matts and owner manual. If you have anything other than this, please take it out of the car prior to judging start. Scoring sheets will be made available prior to the event to help you prepare your car.

Everyone should have a good time enjoying their cars and meeting other enthusiast members. Our goal is to create a great social occasion for the entrants, their spouses and/or kids, who can also enjoy the company of others with similar interests.
