This has been a long week for many of us here at MSN Autos: Not only have we been hard at work getting this blog ready for launch, but we've just returned, bleary-eyed and over-stimulated, from the massive celebration of all things automotive that was the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in Monterey, Calif.

The week had something for everyone: concept cars, performance car test drives, new model reveals, auctions for mind-blowing classics, and, of course, the culmination of the week for many, the awarding of the Concours’s coveted Best of Show honors.

Believe it or not, those were only a few of the articles, slideshows and videos we managed to create during our stay in the small Northern California town. Check out the full gamut of MSN Auto’s Pebble Beach coverage here. But before you go, make sure to take a look at this awesome time-lapse compilation video we put together, which uses still photographs to capture the entire awards ceremony – all five hours worth of winning classics – in a little over a minute and a half. Truly amazing stuff.
