LAPIS Opens Porsche Livermore to Anchor Tri-Valley Luxury Retail

The event drew a crowd of local business leaders and Porsche executives, including Porsche Cars North America CEO Timo Resch and COO John Cappella. Beyond the ribbon-cutting, the evening functioned as a curated exhibition of the marque’s history. Attendees viewed rare models such as the 916, 959, 904, and the 918 Spyder, juxtaposed against newer additions to the lineup like the Cayenne Electric. This blend of classic engineering and modern electrification highlights the dealership's stated goal: to act as a community hub rather than a traditional retail point.

For Blue, the Livermore site is a long-term play in Northern California, where LAPIS already manages a portfolio including Ferrari and Audi locations. By targeting the affluent Tri-Valley region—encompassing communities from Pleasanton to Blackhawk—the group aims to leverage Porsche’s recent success in the 2026 J.D. Power U.S. Initial Quality Study. Operating from a facility on Las Positas Road, the team intends to emphasize personalized ownership experiences as a cornerstone of their growth strategy.
