AJ the parking passes are not transferable, I was hoping to find someone with a 993 Guards Red C4S as that is what is stated on the pass. I do not know if they will check the name against an id.

I'm assuming thats why they want all the air-cooled cars in one spot near the main show. Kinda like a side show to the main show. In years pass they posted a submit your car for the show form. I submitted my car and it was chosen. They hand picked a lot of cars for the show. This year seems a bit different. Not sure how one would be in the main show. If I had to guess. You probably need to own something pretty special.

Something specially-teased for 2017's main show

The picture US Today chose to represent Luftgekuhlt on their list was a picture of 993's

Very frustrated over the changes this year. Last year we just showed up, paid, drove in when the gate opened, and parked with like cars. Now we can leave our cars on the streets of Long Beach and pray that the LBPD takes our calls when local vandals and pro grade GTA have their way with them. Um, no.

Don't worry. They leave the ones with the paint peeling off alone.

Hopefully the weather gods agree with the Porsche gods and the weather is all clear!

Guy's I just got an update email from Patrick Long regarding the event. I have never attended before so I'm not sure if this is normal or because of the new venue. He said due to the size the paid to park air-cooled car parking will be in an adjacent parking lot across from the primary show. He did not elaborate on access from the public attending or how close it is. I'm sure as others have said certain unique cars will be selected and moved into the primary show. You guys may know all this but thought I would add this info. Rain forecasted too for Sunday. We will be there rain or shine but debating on taking the car or not.

Not so sure I am happy with the photo credit. I did not take it, but found it and posted on my flickr account.
The artist that took the picture, Afshin Behnia, deserves the credit for the incredible shot!
