A spectacular showcase of sleek European exotics, vintage motorcycles and cutting-edge hybrid cars will on display at the Gaslamp Quarter’s second annual Fifth Avenue Auto Showcase this Sunday, Oct. 10 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. More than 120 cars, motorcycles, and horseless carriages will be on display on Fifth Avenue between E and K streets against the Gaslamp Quarter’s Victorian-style architecture. Attendees and exhibitors can vote on the most stunning or unique car to win the “People’s Choice Award.” Last year, the event drew a crowd of more than 10,000 people, and this year is expected to be even bigger. For the first time, the luxurious Keating Hotel is giving visitors a chance to win a weekend VIP package. The winner will receive a pampered weekend package that includes a one-night stay at the hotel the night before the show, two passes for complimentary entrance and drinks at SWAY lounge, and dinner for two at the MerK Bistro Italiano on Sunday. Avid car enthusiasts and casual admirers alike are welcome to stroll among some of the most stunning vintage and contemporary automobiles in San Diego at this free event.
