San Francisco Cars und Kaffee Debuts at Stunning New Location!

The San Francisco chapter of Cars und Kaffee celebrated a successful debut at its brand-new venue on Sunday, March 26th. The event moved to the impressive 4,000-square-foot Deeb Spec car showroom in San Rafael, owned by Michael Deeb — JP’s partner from the Bid Nerds.

Attendees were treated to far more than just the cars. The spacious showroom housed an outstanding collection of classic and collectible vehicles, while the walls featured Michael’s eclectic and sophisticated art collection. Instead of the usual vintage gas pumps and 1950s oil signs, guests enjoyed rare Porsche and Italian car prints that made the space feel like a true automotive gallery. Many remarked that the art on the walls was every bit as spectacular as the cars outside.

A huge turnout filled the area, with classic and collectible Porsches (and other fine cars) parked all around the building. Enthusiasts traveled from across the Bay Area to be part of this special opening event. Adding to the morning’s appeal were fresh Johnny Doughnuts and coffee from Oakland’s own Bassline Coffee, creating a perfect relaxed atmosphere from 8 to 11 a.m.

Making the journey even more memorable, JP and Romi drove up from Las Vegas in true Porsche spirit. They piloted a pair of air-cooled legends — a 1979 Porsche 930 and a fully race-modified 1989 Porsche 930 — both without air conditioning. The 660-mile trek across the desert tested their endurance, especially as temperatures climbed and fuel prices never dipped below $6.50 per gallon in California. By the time they arrived Friday night, they were tired and dirty from the long, grueling drive, but both agreed it was absolutely worth it. The raw, unfiltered experience behind the wheel of these iconic Turbos perfectly captured the passion that Cars und Kaffee is all about.

Back home in Las Vegas, the original Cars und Kaffee continued strong on the same weekend. With JP attending the San Francisco event, Gary Lea, President of the Las Vegas PCA, stepped in to host the local gathering in the Arts District. The Las Vegas event also drew a large crowd, with favorite spots like the Good Wolf Lifestyle Store and Akin opening their doors for attendees.
