The event's main sponsor, CFS Group RBC Wealth Management, presented their Best in Show award to David Lowen's 1959 BMW 600, the limousine version of their 300 Isetta.  David came up from Roanoke to display his eye-catching two-tone microcar.

The Classic category was the best represented this year, consisting of Lowen's 600, Michael Balling's 1979 320i (he's the original owner), and Steve Grumbach's 1980 320i.

Jose Rivera's first generation 1988 E30 M3 represented the 80s class.

Display Class ranged from Ton Sittichaimanee's 1999 E36 328is to Jeff Latka's 2024 G20 330xi.
