Despite a smattering of rain and overcast skies, the turnout was awesome! Aaron of Porsche Jacksonville, hosted our event at their destination Porsche Dealership and made room inside the showroom for some exceptional cars owned by our PCA members. PJ’s Parts Manager, Austin Mills opened up his special inventory for some incredible deals on amazing Porsche merchandise and the Senior Techs organized multiple sessions to provide valuable insight on how they maintain our cars.
