We'll be attending!
My wife and I decided to make it a long weekend. Never been to one of the big shows so really looking forward to it. Won't be taking the 914 or the TT unfortunately....I'm a bit **** about my cars. May drive her DD 2011 Cayman down. Really looking forward to it. Staying in Jacksonville Beach.
Most looking forward to the cars and coffee event.

the Amelia...definitely a must
FWIW, as I lived in the JAX area for 7-8 years, I attending "the Amelia" nearly every year and each time couldn't wait for next year's show. Hands down, this show is World Class and a huge bargain compared to many other Concours venues.
A couple of suggestions:
>Book a motel room in "the beaches area", like Jacksonville Beach, as there are many reasonable possibilities.
>Rent a car at airport or locally.
>Get up early on Sunday morning, like around 6A, and drive to Amelia Island via the Newport ferry route...trip = about an hour. This drive is picturesque and the rising sun will really charge you up for the show.

Did the factory bring over Piech's 914-8??? Sure looks like it in those pix.
And a real 916... is that one Peter Gregg's that was on the R&T cover??

A lot of great pix also over at 914 world. The factory did bring the 914-8 over. What would have been worth price of admission 
)
And that is the Brumos real only original 916 brought over as it's the only one with the horrible side marker lights...
