Concours Entry

To enter your car in the Concours for judging or “display only”, you must register as a “Primary FCA member”. Space is limited to the first 200 cars.

Cars will be placed on the field between 6:30 am and 8:30 am on Monday, June 29, and judging will take place from 9:00 a.m. until noon. Class awards will be presented on the field about 2:00 pm.

Concours Seminar 2026

Whether you have a present or future interest in entering a car in the FCA Concours, you should attend the Concours Seminar, which will be held at Resorts World near the Registration Reception on Sunday afternoon, June 28th at 2:30 PM. Led by Chief Concours Judge, Leslie Blinn, this is a unique opportunity to learn more and ask questions about the entire Concours process.

Concours

Judged Concours

Ferraris that are at least 5 years old (built in or before September 2021) will be judged against a standard for originality and authenticity. If you are interested in knowing how original/authentic your Ferrari is, please enter your Ferrari(s) for the Concours when you register for the Meet.

Note: Cars compete against a standard for originality, not against other cars in the class. All cars earning 97 points or better win a Platino and are considered for a major award.

The IAC/PFA Guidelines for Concours entrants from the International Advisory Committee for the Preservation of the Ferrari Automobile will give you greater insight into how cars are judged.

Be sure to bring documentation on your car. Most Ferraris are unique. Many older cars have been restored — bring documentation in case judges question the originality of the restoration. For newer, unrestored cars, bring the original/copy of the build sheet or delivery documentation.

Preservation Class

For Ferraris that are at least 30 years old (built in or before September 1996) and have been kept as original as possible.

Cars can enter for either the regular Concours Class judging OR for Preservation judging, but not both. Cars in the Preservation Class are held to a different standard — priority is given more to unrestored originality and less to overall condition.

It is recognized that most cars have had some repair over the years. We look to see how much care was taken to preserve as much of the original paint or interior as possible.

Futuro Classico

Exciting News! Our concours day event, Futuro Classico, is evolving. This event designed for modern Ferraris (5 years or less) is changing from an evaluation of total originality to a showcase of the latest and greatest examples of our members’ creative talents, taking full advantage of Ferrari’s Tailor Made Program.

We are introducing The People’s Choice Award. Cars will be judged for their sense of style and design recognizing the endless possibilities afforded by the Tailor Made Program. All attendees will have the ability to vote on their favorite example.

The field will be limited to 20 cars in its own corral on the concours field. The cars must be in their original form as delivered from the factory, with no aftermarket personalization. There will be a People’s Choice Trophy awarded during the Concours Class Awards Ceremony. All entrants will receive a dash placard and a commemorative medallion.

Coppa Events

Coppa Bella Macchina

This is a 100% pass or fail test to see if everything on your Ferrari operates as it should, both while parked and while being driven over a short road course. Only cars that first receive a Platino award in the Concours earlier in the day will be judged in the Coppa Bella Macchina (CBM).

Requirement — Entrants must receive 97 points (Platino) or higher in the Concours or Preservation Class before they are eligible to compete in the CBM.

To enter the Coppa Bella Macchina, you must sign up for both the Judged Concours (or Preservation Class) and the Coppa Bella Macchina when you register for the Meet. Entries for the CBM are limited.

The Coppa Bella Macchina evaluation and road test will take place starting about 2:00 pm on June 29th adjacent to the Concours Field at Monticello Motor Club.

Coppa GT

The Coppa GT Award is the highest award an individual can receive at the FCA Annual Meet. To qualify, the car must first receive a Platino award in the Concours and then pass the Coppa Bella Macchina evaluation. In the Coppa GT, the car’s owner must demonstrate driving capabilities on the track. No more than three (3) Coppa GTs are awarded each year.

The Coppa GT awards are generously sponsored by Dennis and Susan Garrity.

If you intend to do well in the Coppa GT, you will need to practice and gain track experience with your car during at least a few track events prior to the Annual Meet.
