Sportscar Together Day – a day coined up in 2018 to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Porsche. It was a day to celebrate sports car fascination, uniting Porsche enthusiasts in sharing experiences and forging unforgettable memories.

Models including the 911 GT3 Cup race cars from Porsche Carrera Cup Asia, 8 generations of the 911, the 919 Hybrid and the Mission E 1:3 scale model were on display. The fans and enthusiast also had the opportunity to learn the historical milestones of the brand in the Fascination Porsche showcase which provided insights in to the past, present and future of Porsche.
Track side, adults had the opportunity to participate in the Porsche Experience while the children had their go in the Porsche Junior Experience programme. The day also witnessed a new Malaysian Record for the ‘Largest Porsche Gathering’ on Sepang International Circuit with a total of 320 Porsche cars.
