ABOUT NYC
CAR CLUB

NYC Car Club is an independent nonprofit automotive community and event organizer based in New York City.

We bring together collectors, drivers, photographers, designers and curious New Yorkers through Cars & Coffee gatherings, Porsche events, collector-car shows, drives and automotive experiences across the five boroughs and the surrounding metropolitan region.

Our events are Porsche-forward but proudly open to the wider car community. Most are free to attend, open to the public and welcome all makes and models unless otherwise noted. You do not need to own a collector car, a Porsche or even a car to take part.

NYC Car Club began in 2023 with small, informal gatherings of people who wanted to share good cars, good coffee and a few hours together in New York City.

Those pop-ups grew into a year-round calendar of neighborhood Cars & Coffee mornings, curated collector-car events, drives, exhibitions and collaborations with cafés, restaurants, cultural institutions and automotive brands.

Our events have brought air-cooled Porsches, Japanese classics, Italian exotics, American muscle, modern performance cars, daily drivers and ongoing projects together on the same New York streets. The cars bring people through the door. The conversations and connections are what keep the community growing.

NYC Car Club produces automotive events and experiences throughout New York City and the greater metropolitan area, including:

• Free public Cars & Coffee gatherings
• Porsche and collector-car events
• Curated car shows and exhibitions
• Scenic drives and member gatherings
• Automotive photography, design and cultural programming
• Collaborations with local businesses, venues and community partners
• Signature events including Porschefest and Looks Fast, Standing Still

Every event is different, but the goal remains the same: create welcoming places where people can discover interesting cars and meet the people behind them.

New York has one of the most diverse automotive communities in the world. We believe the club should reflect it.

At an NYC Car Club gathering, you might find a patina-covered Porsche 912 beside a BMW E30, classic Mustang, Japanese import, modern supercar or beautifully maintained daily driver. What matters is not the badge, value or condition of the car. It is the story, enthusiasm and person who brought it.

Photographers, families, first-time enthusiasts and people who simply stopped because they saw something interesting are welcome too.

Come for the cars. Stay for the people.

NYC Car Club, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Beyond producing events, our mission is to support youth access to automotive education and create pathways into motorsports, engineering, restoration, design, photography and modern vehicle technology.

Memberships, donations and community partnerships help us produce accessible events, support nonprofit programming and give the next generation opportunities to build, fix, design, photograph and experience the cars they love.

Membership is open to anyone who wants to participate in New York City’s car culture.

Members receive early access to selected events, invitations to members-only gatherings, access to club classifieds and partner benefits, and opportunities to help shape future programs.

Whether you own a collection, are working on your first project car or simply want to learn more, there is a place for you in the club.

NYC Car Club works with cafés, restaurants, galleries, cultural institutions, automotive brands and property owners to create thoughtful events in distinctive spaces.

If you have a venue, partnership idea or space that could host an automotive gathering in New York City or the surrounding region, we would like to hear from you.
