The Concours at Wynn Las Vegas: The New Crown Jewel of the Supercar World In the elite landscape of global automotive gatherings, the question of which event holds the ultimate prestige is a debate as old as the machines themselves. For decades, the Concours d’Elegance at Pebble Beach has reigned supreme, serving as the pinnacle of classic car artistry. Yet, the automotive world is not static. The definition of a “concours”—a display and competition judged primarily on aesthetic excellence and overall presentation—is evolving. As the interests of collectors shift, new contenders emerge, vying to dethrone the established hierarchy. For years, The Quail: A Motorsports Gathering was considered the heir apparent to Pebble Beach. It has long been the preferred appetizer to the main event, particularly for enthusiasts drawn to the latest hypercars and limited-edition supercars. The disappearance of the Geneva International Motor Show created a void in the supercar calendar, a vacuum that The Quail has filled admirably. The Lamborghini Aventador debuted at Geneva in 2011, and its successor, the Revuelto, was unveiled online, though its predecessor, the Temerario, debuted at The Quail in 2024. Similarly, the seven-figure Pagani Fenomeno made its world premiere at the 2025 Quail. Bugatti launched the Chiron in Geneva in 2016, but its exclusive successors, the Divo and Mistral, were first showcased at The Quail in 2018 and 2022, respectively. These are just a few examples in a long list of debuts at The Quail. Until recently, I believed The Quail’s dominance was unshakeable. Then, I attended the 2025 Concours at Wynn Las Vegas. My previous experience at the 2024 event had been underwhelming; it felt localized, featuring mostly familiar models. However, I was invited as a guest of Czinger, and I am profoundly grateful that I attended. The Las Vegas Concours has taken a massive leap into the big leagues. What Exactly Is the Las Vegas Concours? The 2025 show was a spectacular display of engineering and design. The Wynn showcased an astonishing 48 Bugatti Veyrons. Considering only 450 Veyrons were ever produced, and 100 were sold in North America, having 48 in one place is unprecedented. Bugatti also displayed the Veyron’s 20th-anniversary edition, the Vitesse Super Sport, alongside the Bolide, Centodieci, Chiron Super Sport, Divo, Mistral, and a model of the forthcoming 18-cylinder hybrid Tourbillon. Displaying more than 10% of all Bugatti Veyrons ever built is a feat that continues to boggle the mind. Paganis also had a strong showing, with over 40 examples present. Although I didn’t count them all—I was too captivated by the Bugattis—there were several Zonda models, including the ultra-rare Revolution (one of only five). There were also dozens of Huayras, a large contingent of Utopias, and, perhaps most significantly, the debut of the Pagani Huayra Codalunga Speedster. Pagani plans to build only 10 of these at $7 million each before taxes and tariffs. (The mint-green example belongs to Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook.) Even if these flamboyant machines are not to everyone’s taste, the fact that the 2025 Las Vegas Concours was the largest Pagani gathering in North America’s history—and that Horatio Pagani himself was honored onstage by emcee Justin Bell for his contributions to automotive design—speaks volumes. Moreover, Pagani and his team chose this event to introduce a new model, solidifying its importance. To put it in perspective, this assembly of over 40 Paganis is more than the factory produces in an entire year. The Lamborghini display was equally breathtaking for those who appreciate these masterpieces. The 2025 Wynn Vegas Concours featured the largest Lamborghini gathering ever. Again, I didn’t get an exact count, but the figure being discussed was around 230 cars, representing roughly 600 of the total vehicles present at the show. It was simply mind-blowing. Of these 230 Lamborghinis, there was a Veneno Coupe (one of only three sold to the public; the factory kept the fourth), a Sesto Elemento (one of 10), a Centenario Coupe and Convertible (20 each), and a Reventón (one of 21). The last time I saw all these “limited runs”—as Lamborghini now calls them—together was at the factory museum. It was a flabbergasting display of precious, high-horsepower Italian metal and composite materials. To keep this article reasonably brief, I will omit mentions of the Koenigseggs, Gumpert Apollo, Czingers, Nilu, the debut of the McLaren Project Endurance race car, all the judged vehicles (including a former and insane Pebble Beach Concours-winning 1929 Mercedes-Benz 680 S Barker Tourer 26/120/180 that won best of show for pre-war cars here), the HWA EVO, a Mercedes-AMG One, two Oldsmobile Aerotechs, and a McLaren F1. Yes, it was that spectacular. What Could Possibly Be Next? Two main topics of conversation dominated the floor at the Wynn Las Vegas Concours. The big question everyone was asking was: “How on earth will they top this next year?” No one has the answer, but all credit goes to the Wynn for setting such a high bar. The other, and frankly much more intriguing, query came from OEM representatives: “Should we even bother doing The Quail next year?” It’s a valid question. Perhaps we should also wish The Quail good luck in the future. Here are some facts you might not know about The Quail. A single ticket cost $1,300 last year. This discounted price was offered to past attendees, referred to as “legacy ticket holders.” First-time attendees had to pay $1,600. This is undoubtedly expensive, but it costs OEMs about $400,000 to secure a stand there, and that’s just for six hours. The Las Vegas Concours charges about one-twentieth of that amount. If you want to attend, tickets cost just $100. That’s roughly $2 per Bugatti Veyron. I spoke with three different car manufacturers who openly questioned the need to attend The Quail again. They speculated, “Perhaps Las Vegas and Moda Miami are enough?” Furthermore, attendees won’t face heart-attack-inducing hotel prices. A friend mentioned that a motel near Pebble Beach was charging $1,100 a night, with a minimum five-night stay required. Moreover, getting around in soul-crushing traffic is a nightmare, and finding dinner reservations is incredibly difficult. Conversely, Las Vegas is designed to accommodate large gatherings. This might sound far-fetched, but only a few years ago, Geneva was the epicenter of the supercar world. I cannot predict the future, but I can assure you that the Concours at Wynn Las Vegas is now on my must-attend list. You should add it to yours, too.
