Your safety is our concern.” \nThe Cadillac luxury brand was founded in 1902 and named after Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac\, the founder of Detroit. The iconic Cadillac visual identity is instantly recognizable and is still based on the original brand’s logo from 1906. The famous logo was redesigned about 30 times since 1902. \nThe first Cadillac logo was designed in 1902 and featured a crest with swans and parallel lines\, with a crown on top and an ornate circle framing. The crest was inspired by the Detroit founder’s cat of arms. The wordmark “La Mothe Cadillac” was placed on the bottom part of the logo. The trademark was registered in 1906. \nA symbol of excellence redesigned\, it is inspired by the work of Piet Mondrian\, a European artist known as a very prominent geometric painter of the 1900s. \nThe crest of Cadillac was a design inspired by the French adventurer Antoine de la Mothe\, Sieur de Cadillac’s coat of arms. He is noted in 1701 for the founding of the city of Detroit and is said to be an ancestor of Henry Leland\, founder of Cadillac. The coat of arms was first used on Cadillac cars back in 1905 and was a registered trademark in the following year. \n\nABOUT THE GILMORE AUTOMOTIVE MUSEUM \nFirst Cadillac Logo from 1902 \nThe Gilmore Car Museum – North America’s Largest Auto Museum™ – is a collection of multiple museums displaying over 400 cars in a variety of examples of period architecture. \nThe cars include most every brand with examples from the earliest years to the muscle car era and beyond\, from million-dollar classics to modest four-door sedans; most all are fully restored.

The event will showcase over 150 classic\, vintage\, and exotic vehicles\, ranging from Ferrari to Rolls-Royce\, in a setting that combines automotive elegance with community charm. \nGuests can expect a day filled with more than cars—there will be live music\, vendor booths\, great food\, and social activities tailored for families\, collectors\, and enthusiasts alike. \n\nThe show is a fundraiser for charity\, helping organizations such as the Paulie Strong Foundation and the Scarsdale Police Department\,  as well as other local organizations from Westchester\, and also Habitat for Humanity. Funds are generated from donations from sponsors\, donations from participants\, and voluntary admission donations. \nSince 2004\, the show has raised over $350\,000 for charity. (reference) \n \n  \n\nCAR SHOW HISTORY \nThe Scarsdale Concours Car Show was started in 2003 by 2 students from Scarsdale High School out of their passion for cars. \nThe Concours Founders state\, “Since 2003\, we have raised over $350k. It has now become Westchester County’s Premier Auto Show featuring antique\, classic\, and exotic automobiles to benefit local charities.” \nNow in its 22th year\, the show was created in response to three ideas of the founders. \n\nA strong desire to showcase Scarsdale students as part of a constructive and giving community.\nA genuine passion for great classic cars both new and vintage\,\nThe opportunity to raise significant amounts of money for local charities.\n\nIn the fall of 2003\, the two founders talked about creating something car-themed and worthwhile\, involving a passionate love of cars. Soon after\, the simple idea of a car show quickly turned into the first Concours. Today\, it is known as the “Scarsdale Concours d’Elegance & Car Show”. \n \n“Annual Scarsdale Car Show Located in Downtown Scarsdale\, New York” \nEveryone with whom they spoke loved the idea\, and they received active support from numerous constituencies\, including the police\, local government\, local merchants\, and car collectors near and far. The event serves as a great lesson that anything is possible. \nBut the Concourse became more than a car show featuring classic cars and car collections. It became a major fundraiser. \nOver the past 16 years\, the event has raised over $430\,000.00 for charities across Westchester County. With Evan and Denis now pursuing business careers\, a group of accomplished local car enthusiasts has assumed responsibility for the event to ensure that the legacy established by Evan and Denis will continue for many years. \nEach year\, the board has continued to evolve\, with the torch passing from the graduating seniors to the younger high school students. With the same enthusiasm\, the current students strive to put on an exciting and memorable show that benefits the local community and area charities\, which brings valuable services to those in need. \n \nThe current Scarsdale Concours d’Elegance board of directors includes numerous car enthusiasts and father-son teams who share the passion and drive for vintage cars and a desire to give back to the local community. The Scarsdale Concours & Car Show members wish to sincerely thank the car show owners\, the official Concours sponsors\, the local advertisers\, and\, of course\, all the attendees\, as Evan states\, “as they are the heart of the show!” \nWith that clearly in their young minds\, in 2003\, two Scarsdale High School sophomores\, Evan M. Cygler and Dennis O’Leary III\, launched the Scarsdale Concours d’Elegance with the help of the Scarsdale Police Department and the enthusiastic approval of village officials. \nEvan and Dennis say\, “The Annual Scarsdale Concours d’Elegance will bring vintage and exotic cars together in a show that collectors and car enthusiasts can both enjoy. There will be great food\, live music\, spectacular displays\, and so much more!” \nScarsdale Concours D’Elegance \n\nEVENT LOCATION & DETAILS \n\nSee you on Sunday\, October 5\, 2025\nShow Hours: 10:00 am to 3:30 pm\nAdmission: Suggested Donation $15 (Donate here)\nSCARSDALE FACEBOOK LINK\n\nLOCATION OF CAR SHOW \nThe event will take place in the heart of Scarsdale Village\, on the corner of Chase Rd and Christie Place in Scarsdale\, New York.
