The Significance of the Barrett-Jackson Car Show: A Family Bonding Experience

April 13th – 15th, 2023

The Barrett-Jackson Car Show, known as the “World’s Greatest Collector Car Auctions,” is a significant event in the car world. It brings together car lovers, collectors and families, providing a unique chance to admire the beauty, history, and craftsmanship of cars. It’s also a special time for kids to bond with their parents and grandparents over their shared love for cars.

This event showcases a wide variety of classic, vintage and rare vehicles that capture the attention of both car enthusiasts and curious visitors. Some notable cars seen at the show in recent years include the 1969 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, the famous 1967 Shelby GT500, the stylish 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL “Gullwing” and the stunning 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray. Additionally, some of the most desirable European cars included in this year’s docket was an 885-horsepower 2018 McLaren 720S (Lot #738), a 2017 Ferrari 488 Spider (Lot #737) and two 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS models featuring the Weissach Package, including Lot #744 with just 80 actual miles. These cars not only represent impressive engineering and design but also hold a rich history in the world of automobiles.

One of the wonderful things about the Car Show is how it brings generations together. Families can explore the event as a group, sharing the excitement and amazement that the cars inspire. For kids, it’s a unique opportunity to learn about the history and craftsmanship of cars, nurturing an appreciation that can last a lifetime.

Parents and grandparents also have the chance to share their memories and stories connected to the cars on display. They can talk about their experiences with similar models, giving insights into the cultural and historical importance of these vehicles. These conversations deepen family connections, creating lasting memories and traditions that bridge the age gap.

Additionally, Barrett-Jackson offers interactive activities for children such as simulators, games and mini racetracks. These activities not only entertain the young attendees, but also provide opportunities for hands-on learning and exploration. Kids can participate in friendly competitions with their parents and grandparents, creating a sense of shared excitement. But, to get the ultimate experience, a must for older guests was a visit to Ford Motor Company’s Hot Laps experience. There, visitors got to enjoy the thrills of sitting passenger for two laps in a Mustang Mach 1 or a Mustang Mach-Eas as drivers from Ford’s Performance Racing School maneuvered them through hairpin turns and even a fun burn out.

The Car Show holds great significance beyond being a top-notch car event. Its ability to bring generations together through a shared passion for cars is truly remarkable. By displaying exceptional cars and providing engaging activities for children, the event strengthens family bonds and fosters a love for the heritage of automobiles. Through this shared experience, children develop an appreciation for the artistry and history of cars while building stronger connections with their parents and grandparents.

“This experience is really breathtaking, from the auction block, dealer booths, test ride track, down to the individual vendors,” said visitor Charles Toliver. “As a former U.S. Army Drill Sergeant, I possessed a “hawk eye” when it came to acknowledging deficiencies. However, to personally see the “attention to detail” applied to each and every vehicle is unlike any other craft. These vehicles are spotless and without wrinkles, leaving your tastebuds yearning for more. Ranging from old school to new school automobiles on site, you can’t go wrong no matter where you are at. Make sure you follow Barrett-Jackson Auction so that you too can experience the greatest car show on earth.”

The Barrett-Jackson Car Show stands as a remarkable celebration of automotive excellence and the unity of different generations. After going strong for 20 years, it’s exciting to see what comes next.
