Although we describe it as simply a Drive Day, those of us on the MPG board think of it as the Magic of Motoring, with an inventory of today's most compelling cars in company with you, Southern California's automotive media. Last year's MPG Drive Day boasted some 50 vehicles and 75 MPG members - we hope to match or exceed those numbers this year.
There's a lot of movement in today's industry, and our Drive Day is moving, also. We're leaving Malibu for the majesty of Castaic Lake and its combination of paved roads and soft-roading. And the day - Wednesday, October 1st - is preceded by an evening reception on September 30th in Porsche Santa Clarita's Wunderground; there we'll celebrate 50 years of the 911 Turbo.
Full details are below. We plan to see you there.
The Motor Press Guild is proud to announce that it will hold its signature event MPG Drive Day 2025 at a new venue.
The MPG Drive Day will have all the popular features of previous drive days.
- Interesting vehicles to drive
- Terrific on-road driving opportunities
- Challenging off-road course
- Pleasant venue
- Great interaction opportunities with fellow journalists and PR professionals
- Lunch, snacks, coffee and surprises
It should be an absolutely unprecedented collection of great driving and great camaraderie at a great venue.
Additionally, we have secured a special Tuesday evening MPG event at Porsche Santa Clarita. Join us for a hosted reception and tour of their Museum the evening before Drive Day.
For those of you who plan to head up the evening before, we have secured a hotel rate of $149 at the Embassy Suites Hotel, Valencia.
