Can't wait!! There's going to be a certain GT1 there as well if I remember correctly.

They had that red 901 in the vault when i was there a year or so ago. The tour guide was surprised when he asked the group what it was and i said 901 (humblebrag).

The big question is the overlap with Rennsport Reunion. Are cars going to be released for the weekend to go to Monterey?

Excited to go to this! It’ll be better than the Bugatti exhibit going on now lol

That's a good question... I would assume they would bring the cars up. This year they brought the 356 Continental out to Werks too. Wonder how many they'll bring!

Opening night reception at the Petersen is $356 for regular tix, and $911 for VIP ones! I always thought Porsche guys were cheapskates but hey, this is LA.

I will be in LA for Rennsport Reunion, really want to visit Petersen Museum when there are Porsches there. I visited the museum in May earlier this year, there was a 993 GT1.
