I’m in Columbia SC, about 2 hours west of Charleston. There is a very well attended cars and coffee in Greenville SC (upstate, 3-4 hours from Chucktown) - not to say there isn’t one in Charleston, but I’ve not been to one. We have a monthly cars and coffee in Columbia that is mostly Mopar and younger, but they love the older Porsche’s. There are a few events in Charlotte (cars and coffee, cars and cappuccino).
You will find a few indies in town, as well as in Columbia and in Charlotte, NC. Docs garage in Columbia has been highly recommended (I do all of my own maintenance, and have not been there). For performance work I can recommend Black Forest Racing in Denver, NC.
You will need to schedule some time for the Blueridge Parkway in the Smokies, and of course the Tail of the Dragon. You will have to drive further to find some of this stuff, than you might in CA, but it’s out there and the trip can be half the fun.
