My registration is completed. Jess & I will be driving our SRT 6, checking-in on Thurs and checking out Sunday for the drive home... See You There!
Crossfires should fit in well this year as the theme is "Original Hybrids".

I have been to the hotel Verdae in Greenville, it's very very nice. Is this just park your car and look at others type car show?

Yes it is. Showfield will be filled with Car Marques of nearly all European Sourced Vehicles, including several exotics. Theme this year is Original Hybrids. Based on this theme, I'm expecting quite a few Shelby Cobras, several SunBeam Tigers in the area & who knows what else. Copies of eMail correspondence I've received to-date are attached. Based on latest update, Embassy Suites is Sold Out!

Looking forward to seeing your SRT-6 up close. I know it's a show winner!

I was checking the schedule. I think I would like to drive up and see the show but not place my car into the show. Mostly because I will be going out of town the following week for a conference. So is there a viewing ticket for the non-showing people?

There should be, but I haven't seen a notice yet on the show admission price.

Considering the impact Helene had on the area I am not surprised. I had power within a few hours on Friday. My aunt living in Greenville got power a few days later. There are other areas that were hit harder. Maybe next year we can go.

Euro Auto Festival has been moved to a 2025 Spring Event after Hurricane Helene passed thru our area in SEP/2024. Event is now scheduled for the weekend dates of April 11th & 12th, 2025

Steve (zip439) & I attended the 2025 Euro Auto Festival yesterday in Greenville, SC. Over 200 cars along with 16-20 motorcycles. Steve brought his 2005 SRT-6 Coupe & I showed my 2007 Limited Coupe. We had lots of interest in the Crossfires and represented the marque very well. I'll post a link to pictures later.

Great pictures!
I don't understand something about the festival though. Why do they allow Japanese cars to participate? Just curious.

If you're referring to the Honda Beat cars that were present, I'm going to assume it was because the car was the original design of Pavel Hušek at Pininfarina. Hence a somewhat hybrid which was the overall theme of this year's show.

The Toyota GR Supra shown shares engines & other parts with the BMW Z4. The 5th generation Supra is assembled alongside the G29 BMW Z4 in Graz, Austria by Magna Steyr. Direct comparison to our Crossfires.

It was kind of surprising to not see any Shelby Cobras attending.

Thanks for the explanation. It's amazing how many crossovers are in the car industry!
