Though a bit different, Renegade Hybrids in Las Vegas is kind of fun to visit if you want to see V8s stuffed into Porsches.

I’d second the suggestion of Canepa in Scott’s Valley. The Peterson Auto Museum night also be of interest (though not exclusively Porsche related).

Now, if Jay Leno would just turn his collection into a museum.........

+1 for Canepa. They may not have a special event when you are here, but if you contact them ahead of time maybe you can get a tour.

I also suggest considering a quick stop by JWE to say hello-- about 20 minutes from Canepa.

Feel free to send me a PM if you want some other suggestions for NorCal.

The EASY Porsche meetup (Emeryville) on the 1st Saturday of the month is amazing for early air-cooled cars. Nothing else like it in the bay area

Oh man, there you go. Bastards wouldn't leave me alone about my car. Sent a buyer to my house over and over and over again. Climbing my gate isn't a good introduction.

Go to TRE. Dave is my all-time favorite Porsche dude.

And ya, Canepa is a must. There were five 959 in the shop when I was there in March.
