THREE.8.WERKS History:
Since December 2003 the idea of creating a close-knit group of VW and Audi enthusiasts/friends began with the intention of growing into a small and quality Car Club. Of course back then, our name was VWFixx New York Chapter, and there was more interest in hanging out, than participating in car shows and events it seemed. The ultimate goal for Tania Santos, the founder, was 1st. dedicated members and a close 2nd. quality cars. A re-start in 2006 with dedicated friends, a name change to THREE.8.WERKS in 2007, and today you see one of the most prominent and respected VW/Audi Car Clubs in the Northeast Region, now spreading to the FL area as well. Our goal is to maintain positive camaraderie, participate in the community and enjoy our Volkswagens and Audis to the fullest. We carry on more like a brotherhood than a car club at times, but that's just how we like it.
What does THREE.8.WERKS stand for? The literal version is quite simple. When we were considering an appropriate new name in late 2006, Ruben Rodriguez explained his suggestion and everyone quickly agreed it was not only perfect, but truly symbolic. THREE.8 stands for 1938, when the first Volkswagen Factory mortar was laid. WERKS fit perfectly. Ferdinand's Crew is the subtitle paying homage to Dr. Ferdinand Porsche, our founding father of what was yet to come.
We also present the annual eurothon in June, now on it's 7th year with more than 250 show cars. Every year we give upwards of $1000 to local Charities. The event is very laid back and fun, with a nice family oriented atmosphere. There are People's Choice awards, and the coveted Dr. Ferdinand Porsche PROPER Award chosen by us, 3.8.W. It's a guaranteed good time. For more info visit the events page.
We hope to see you around!
Keep Dubbin'.
