Hi folks,

I'm sure many of y'all know this already, but just an FYI there's a monthly Porsche Cars & Coffee on the 1st Saturday of the month at the old EASY Porsche Salvage Yard in Emeryville, CA.

I went over this morning for the first time in years (it was well before Covid since I last attended). As of 9 am, I counted about 80 cars in attendance (about 2/3 were air-cooled) -- note that you start to see people trickling away from about 9:30 am...

It's great to see this C&C is still going strong, even though EASY wound down their salvage business in late-2018/early-2019.

If you're looking for a Porsche C&C in the Bay Area, you should check this out. Here's a few pics from this morning...

Thanks, do you know who organizes it? Since it’s a bit of a drive, wouldn’t want to show up to an empty lot/street should it ever get moved

EASY is the organizer, and it's been running at their location for several years. Even though the business has shutdown, they still open the door on the 1st Saturday and serve coffee & donuts

If they ever move on (e.g. they sell the building), then I think it'd be a case of someone else setting up a replacement.

I was there for the first time on 11/6. It was an awesome event. A lot of nice cars and nice people. Hope to meet you guys there next time. I was driving my midnight gold 997.

Does this still happen each month?

Yes it does. Should be happening again this Saturday.

What time do these begin? Assume there will be something this weekend?

I think it starts at around 7am. I usually get there around 8-8:30am. There should be one this Saturday but I don't plan on attending this month.

Today was a good one, no rain. My buddy and I left around 10 though. Second time for me attending one of these, definitely enjoyed the community vibe and just chatting with nice folks.

Take any pictures? I'll have to attend this sometime.

Sure, here’s a few my buddy took. I somehow managed to keep my phone in my pocket for this one, just soaked it all in.

Unsure why they are pixelated here, they look normal in my photo album

Anyway, great stuff!

A number of us (north bay & peninsula) have been planning to go but schedules and weather have not played nice, as will be the case again for the March event so we're looking at April...

Do you know if they hold it in bad weather? (My car looks best in the rain!)

See you in April!
