In addition to heart-thumping horsepower, head-turning style, rugged capability and captivating interiors, our vehicles offer a special something else: bonds that unite us all.
There’s barely a weekend that goes by without a car show, race or other event that draws together owners who share a passion for Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram Truck, FIAT and Alfa Romeo. Or, even Plymouth, Hudson and DeSoto, and other heritage brands.
As Mopar celebrates its 80th year in 2017, there will be plenty of opportunities to gather with your fellow Mopar-or-no-car enthusiasts throughout the year. We have just a relative few below, with links for more details. While many are club activities (membership is required for many activities), often the car shows are open to the public.
