- Comments Off on LVR “WINEDOWN” A BIG SPLASH AT PCA PARADE!
By Reid Smith
As I compiled the list of LVR members signed up to attend the 2023 PCA Parade I was surprised that there were a number of them who I had never met! Being president of the region, I felt we needed to take action. First Lady, Dana and I looked at the Parade schedule and noticed an evening that had no activities or awards banquets planned. Realizing that many would be dining off-site and would be returning later, we began planning for WINEDOWN. The Board approved expenditures and so we were able to purchase wine and bites for that day. One of our biggest issues was finding a location without having to rent a room. As it turned out, our 2nd story room had a large balcony that easily accommodated our party.

By Reid Smith
The Factory one-off special request Classic Club Coupe No. 001/001 was auctioned last month. This incredible car was on display for PCA Parade attendees in Palm Springs. Guess who made an impromptu appearance? The highest bidder who arrived to drive his new Porsche home. None other than Porschephile Jerry Seinfeld! It has been reported the successful bid was over 1.3 million!
LVR members Mark and Trudy Wilson happened to be in the right place at the right time and snapped the two photos.

GAUDIN PORSCHE CELEBRATION
By Reid Smith
Gaudin Porsche held a 75th Porsche birthday celebration on June 10th. With our Porsche cars filling the parking lot and the challenges with getting inventory, I’m sure the sales team was fantasizing about selling every one of them! A special thanks to Julie Cane and the Gaudin team for hosting a great party!
Note the picture of Salomon Braun glued to his cell phone watching the closing bids of his beloved GT4 on Bring a Trailer exceed his expectations.
