A Marmon V16 Convertible Coupe, owned by Aaron Weiss, captured three awards, including “Best of Show” at the 2012 U.S. Bank Kirkland Concours d’Elegance at LeMay—America’s Car Museum on September 9. Described by Concours emcee Edward Herrmann as “an elegant and beautiful example of American coachwork and engineering,” the Marmon also was named winner of The People’s Choice award and placed first in the Classic Car Club of America (Early) class. “We’re just elated, we’re thrilled to win Best of Show,” said Weiss, of San Marino, California, accompanied by his wife Valerie as he accepted the trophy. “This is just a stunning day.”
