Welcome to the Monterey Bay Region of the Porsche Club of America
Whether you drive a vintage 356, a daily-driver Boxster, or a high performance 911, come and join us. The Monterey Bay Region is one of 149 regions of the Porsche Club of America and geographically a part of Zone 7, one of 14 zones. It encompasses Monterey County and San Benito County in California. PCA is the largest single-marque car club in the world with over 170,000 members.
Our motto, “It’s not just the cars, it’s the people…”, encapsulates the goal of the club to bring together Porsche owners with their shared interests in all things Porsche. It’s a great way to make new friends, enjoy social activities, exchange technical expertise, and engage in friendly competition with like-minded enthusiasts.
In addition to admittance to Monterey Bay, Zone 7 and PCA events, membership benefits include a subscription to Porsche Panorama, our award-winning monthly magazine, and access to The Mart, classified ads for members only, as well as Technical Q&A, PCA’s source for expert advice.
Driving tours are a main staple of the club’s activities. We are blessed with many miles of fabulous roads across the Central Coast including Big Sur, Santa Cruz Mountains, Carmel Valley, Monterey Wine Country, San Juan Bautista, Salinas Valley and many more destinations. Tours can be of a few hours or day long in duration, or over a weekend.
