 "It's not just the cars
-- it's the people."

Countdown to
 

 
Welcome to the Connecticut Valley Region of the Porsche Club of America. Our region was founded in 1959 and consists of over 1900 members in Connecticut and the nearby area. Our goal is to provide numerous opportunities for our members to enjoy driving their Porsches and socialize with each other.

Porsches are great cars, and we offer a very active schedule of events including social gatherings, concours, tours, tech sessions, rallies, autocrosses and driver's education at various racetracks in the Northeast. Browse the pages on this website to learn more about the variety of activities. We are all enthusiasts of the Porsche marque and find that the more we do with the cars the more we appreciate them.

If you own a Porsche and are not a member of the club, visit our membership page and sign up now. You will be glad you did. If you are already a member, check out our Calendar of Events, mark your calendars and sign up for the next activity that appeals to you. Then all you have to do is count the days until the time comes when you and other enthusiastic club members get together to have fun.

Enjoy your Porsche and enjoy the club!
