Flashback Friday: Eibach's 2nd Annual Euro Meet
All of the vehicles here are lowered just as the host would want it to be.
What's going on?
Down in Corona, California's industrial district is Eibach Springs and it's a sizeable parking lot that's perfect for large gatherings. The SoCal headquarters of the suspension parts maker opened its doors up to all brands of German performance with the likes of Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, and Audi showing up. Events like this enable customers and online friends to put names to faces, discuss future endeavors, give some tours of the production process, and see the latest offerings from the company. Oh, and there was, of course, drinks and bratwurst available being that this is October. Thanks to SuperStreet for all of the event coverage on this rainy day meet.

A little rain couldn't keep them away
Unlike last year, this Eibach October event was met with a heavy downpour that had started the night before and lasted into the morning. Despite the unfavorable weather, everyone was in great spirits and the atmosphere was laid back. The vehicle turnout was mostly air-cooled Porsche but newer models did make the trek out also.

Using the space for good causes
Since May of 2004, the parking lot of Eibach has served as a destination spot for Honda enthusiasts who would go so far as to arrive in the dead of night and camp out to get the best spots once the gates opened up. Since then, the crowds have become more varied with even a few off-road vehicle meets as well as hosting Targa Trophy event launches.

Everyone loves free stuff
In 2017, the Eibach staff started Eibachtoberfest in order to unveil the brand's newest offerings for Porsche models that included springs and sway bars for air-cooled models. To entice folks out of staying home, everyone who showed up was automatically entered into a raffle to win suspension pieces for their car.

Taking it way back
Sleeper Speed Shop brought this 912 to show off the quality of their work to fellow enthusiasts. The business has quickly taken off and made quite the impact within the Porsche community with its attention to detail. In fact, many of the Porsches at Eibach's Octoberfest had a small window sticker that shows they had been worked on at the shop for some sort of work.
