I joined PCA in 2003 when there are a lot of folks who actually worked on their cars. At the end of our monthly meetings we'd all go out into the parking lot and talks cars, repairs, and auto-X. It eventually became a wine and cheese club and the meetings people just left. Unless you really loved Pano (the old one was terrible) did club racing, concours, or didn't have enough friends, there wasn't a big reason to be a member and I dropped it. The people were still friendly but were "checkbook mechanics" the only thing they knew was they owned a "porsh" and it was expensive.

I feel the same now about Excellence Magazine. It seems like all they want to talk about is EVs or the latest ultimate turbo whatever. I don't need a car that does 0-60 in 3 seconds. There is no place I'd drive it and I don't need a badge on the hood for bragging rights. I love my old and "slow" air cooled. It is more fun to drive at 9/10th slow rather than a super car at 4/10ths.
