The Porsche Museum in Zuffenhausen (no 56K)

Alok · August 25th, 2006, 6:56 PM

This was the first day of my visit and I didnt have a cam with me (I know, class A stupid), but I did managed to click some using my cellphone cam. The Porshe Museum is by far very very small, just one small hallroom, but its really cool. a few years back they had a cross sectional 911, but now its a Cayman S cross section. Also, unlike the Mercedes Benz museum that costs 8 euros if you are an adult and 4 euros if you have a concession, the Porsche Museum has free entry. I think I have some family friends here working for Porsche in Zuffenhausen, maybe I can use him to get a guided tour of their factory. I also made friends with a guy called Chritian who works for AMG in the Nurburgring. I hope to get there once as well.
Sorry for the low quality pictures, but I will be going there again, and then I will snap better. Here's for now.

Yeah, but they are building a new one. It'll be finished next year.

sweet, will it be also around Zuffenhausen? I also am intending to visit Leipzig and Weissach factories in the near future.

Yes, it's build in Zuffenhausen as well.

It looks like it hasn't changed (yet) from where it was in 1988 when I was last there. What was cool was that you could stand right next to and peer into all these incredible cars...

It had better be free. It wasn't all that good. This is the first I've heard of a new one being built, so I'll be making another trip to S for it next year.
