With the 2016 events scheduled for October 28 to November 6, the HHIMF is one of only a few national automotive gatherings to combine collecting and racing with enthusiast and lifestyle activities in a single, action-packed week.<\/p>\n<p>Working strictly on the Classic Car Club of America\u2019s designation, marques such as Bugatti, Hispano-Suiza, Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz and Alfa Romeo (above) will line the fairways of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hiltonheadgolf.net\/port-royal\/\">Port Royal Golf Club<\/a> on South Carolina\u2019s Hilton Head Island during the final Sunday\u2019s Concours portion of the festival. Three classes have been dedicated to this year\u2019s Honored Marque, one each for Roadsters, Phaetons and Sedans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe artistic styling, overwhelming elegance and rich history of these cars made them, as a whole, a worthy selection as this year\u2019s Honored Marque,\u201d said Carolyn Vanagel, president of the HHIMF. \u201cBy celebrating this era in European history, we\u2019re celebrating some of the amazing survival stories of World War II. The fact that these cars survived such destruction and devastation is, in and of itself, miraculous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time the HHIMF has selected a grouping of cars as its Honored Marque. In 2008, Brass Era Cars were featured, and in 2006, the Cars of Indiana paid tribute to that state\u2019s place in automotive manufacturing before the days of mass production.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s HHIMF will also celebrate American Cars of 1956, 60 years of the Fiat 850 and 124 Spider and, for display only, offer a special tribute to the Anderson, a South Carolina-made car celebrating its Centennial this year. Other signature events on the 2016 HHIMF schedule include the Savannah Speed Classic, which kicks off this year\u2019s HHIMF on the weekend of October 28-30 at The Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort &amp; Spa with more than 175 racers, and the Hilton Head Island Auction by Auctions America.
