The parking lot of the Quail is a car show in itself

There are plenty of events going on in Monterey this week, from car shows to races to auctions, but you don't even have to be at one of these to see amazing cars. Even if you just hang out near the events you're bound to see rare exotics and coveted classics.

Take, for instance, the Quail Motorsports Gathering. You don't even need to be inside the show to get your fill of sports cars. Simply walking through the parking lot is like going to an amazing car show, with exotics like the Porsche Carrera GT, Ford GT, Ferrari 599 GTO and Porsche 911 Speedster strewn across the grass.
