Porsche 928 Rendezvous is a unique, annual event that began 4 years ago at the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta when the first-ever produced Porsche 928 – the Number 1 VIN preproduction press car – was on display at the Porsche Museum. The event is the brainchild of 928 enthusiast Scott Martin and has steadily grown each year since then, traveling to various parts of the country. The second Rendezvous was held at Mt. Rushmore in South Dakota in the summer of 2020. In 2021, the third Rendezvous was held during the Porsche Werks Reunion at the Amelia Island Concours and was appropriately called “Sharks Circling Amelia Island”.
