Historic groups covered everything from 1950s GT cars and Formula Junior through IMSA GTO and modern Le Mans prototypes.

Porsche Werks Reunion Monterey 2022
. 3 min read.25
Annual gathering of Porsche owners during 2022 Monterey Car Week. Ever modern and fashionable Porsche cars from 50s to our days. Mostly original and in "better than new" condition. Every generation of every model! Rainbow of colors, especially on models from 70-th but new 20-th are trying to get back into the color game. My favourite 911 body of this year is 912.
