With the doors scheduled to open at 9am on April 27, final preparations are underway to ensure Porsche enthusiasts and owners enjoy an unforgettable day at the second annual Air|Water show. Located throughout the sprawling Orange County Fair & Event Center, visitors will discover a number of highly significant landmark Porsche models representing both air- and water-cooled history on the road and track. In addition to the feature cars, approximately 1000 Porsche owners applied and were selected to be displayed throughout the grounds, placed in carefully curated collections.

By logging into bramo.co owners can update their car's profile, imagery and information. Show visitors can then scan the QR code on each vehicle's windshield at Air|Water to check out its profile, revealing specific information, leave comments, and vote for their favorites.

The winner of the Air|Water Audience Choice award voted on Bramo will be presented with a custom-painted Conifer helmet in association with Mobil 1 to commemorate the occasion.

ATTRACTIONS

Broad Arrow will be holding a live auction during the show. Exclusively featuring Porsche models, there is expected to be approximately 60 cars crossing the block from 12PM on April 27. This includes the sale of the Le Mans class-winning 1969 Porsche 908/02 Langheck Flunder Spyder, which has been valued at an estimated $4.75-5.75 million. Chassis 908/02-005 not only competed at Le Mans, providing Porsche with a 1-2-3 podium sweep, but also appeared in Steve McQueen's Le Mans movie.

As part of its activities at Air|Water, Pirelli will be offering two driving places at a two-day Porsche Track Experience in Birmingham, AL on May 21-22, including two hotel rooms at the Grand Bohemian from May 20-23, airfare, transportation and dining.
