java foreach skip first iteration

Is there an elegant way to skip the first iteration in a Java5 foreach loop ?

Example pseudo-code:

for ( Car car : cars ) {     
   //skip if first, do work for rest
   .
   .
}

With new Java 8 Stream API it actually becomes very elegant. Just use skip() method:

cars.stream().skip(1) // and then operations on remaining cars

I wouldn't call it elegant, but perhaps better than using a "first" boolean:

for ( Car car : cars.subList( 1, cars.size() ) )
{
   .
   .
}

Other than that, probably no elegant method.

for (Car car : cars)
{
   if (car == cars[0]) continue;
   ...
}

Elegant enough for me.
