Porsche celebrates its classics with another Restoration Challenge.
Each year, Porsche encourages dealers across North America to give one of the many classic Porsche cars on the market some TLC as part of the Porsche Classic Restoration Challenge, where the best builds are judged and awarded, whether those be in the Preservation, Restoration, or Individualization categories. This year, the judging for the 2025 Porsche Classic Restoration Challenge, with winners from across the country being carefully evaluated by experts, took place at the Werks Reunion event at this year’s Monterey Car Week, selecting the first round of finalists.
With a new record of 73 vehicles entering the challenge this year, its growth indicates increased passion, appreciation, and excitement around Porsche’s classics and youngtimers, with a rich and growing legacy of vehicles to showcase in the competition each year. For the Area West: the competition winners include a 1985 928 S in the Restoration category from Porsche San Francisco, a 1988 944 Turbo S from Gaudin Las Vegas in the Preservation category, a 1973 911 RSR Tribute from Porsche Bend in the Individualization category, and a 1972 914 Off-Road taking the People’s Choice award.
After the Area West judging took place during Monterey Car Week, the competition will continue with Area East judging set to take place soon in New York City. After that, the National Championship of the competition will take place in North Carolina, at the Luftgekühlt 11 show that will take place in the city of Durham.
