The Space Coast Region of the Porsche Club of America
The Space Coast Region (SPC) of Porsche Club of America (PCA) includes over 1,800 Porsche enthusiasts as members that live along the east coast of Florida in Volusia, Brevard, and Indian River Counties. SPC is one of eleven regions in PCA’s Zone 12, which includes Florida and the southern portions of Alabama and Mississippi.
SPC spans three counties and 145 miles, and we organize three separate Kaffeeklatsch’s (Cars and Coffee) monthly near the center of each county to make it easy for all members to join in the fun.
Our Original Charter name of 1968 was changed to the Space Coast Region in 1986
The Space Coast Region, initially Cape Canaveral Region, is one of PCA’s oldest chapters. The region was chartered in February 1968, one week after Porsche’s legendary 1-2-3 finish at the 24 Hours of Daytona. In 1968 the space race was in high gear; NASA launched Apollo 8 – the first manned spacecraft to orbit the moon – and “The Cape” stood as the undisputed epicenter of aerospace science and engineering. For over 40 years, the Space Coast Region has thrived at this juncture of speed and technology.
Event and Member Focused
PCA likes to say, “It’s Not Just the Cars, it’s the People.” We at the Space Coast Region bring that spirit to life.
Space Coast Region welcomes members from neighboring regions to join our events. We rarely have a Kaffeeklatsch or big event without members of adjoining regions joining us! In fact, we have more than a few families in which one spouse keeps a PCA membership in their “home region” and the other joins the Space Coast Region to ensure they benefit from everything the SPC region is up to.
In 2025, we had a very active year with 117 activities. Some highlights include: multiple Autocrosses, Sunrise to Sunset Rally, Happy Hours, Movie Nights, Visiting a Trident Sub Base, Breakfast with Tanks at AMCM, Quarterly Meetings at Porsche Melbourne, and our Street Survival Program.
Our 70th PCA Anniversary Party, Octoberfest Concours & BBQ, and Holiday Party all had over 130 attendees.
We host large multi-regional events each year. We typically contribute over $20,000 anually to charitable organizations. And we publish and mail our glossy, award-winning newsletter, Escape Velocity, to our membership each quarter.
SPC Region Recognition
SPC is one of the fastest growing regions in North America, winning PCA’s 2007 Membership Factored Growth Award. Over the past 15 years, while the National PCA Club doubled its membership, the Space Coast Region quadrupled ours.
The Space Coast Region was also recognized as “Region of the Year” for 2009 and 2023 and presented with the Ferry Porsche Trophy at the annual Parade in 2010 and in 2024. We were also Runner Up for Region of the Year and received a Public Service Award in 2013. This website has won many 1st, 2nd, 3rd in class PCA Web Contest awards over the years.
To leave our mark on the Ferry Porsche Trophy, we had two of our SPC logo pins flown aboard the last flight of Atlantis, STS-135. One of them was affixed on the trophy and one is a cherished part of the Region’s memorabilia, and was on display at Porsche Melbourne. This means SPC has taken the trophy higher, 100 miles above earth, farther, it traveled 8 million miles, and faster, over 17, 000 miles per hour, making it a difficult task for any other region to top.
