Excellent video.

Uttering "Really?!" after nearly every statement was a bit annoying...

Would LUV a Part 3 to the "Porsche Museum Secrets" videos.

Hopefully Porsche will make good on this teaser closing Part 2:

Going back to the OP's "Workshops of Porsche Classic" video, I was jazzed by the garage's wall mural

Is to be sound like: " Porrschhee" with a bit agressive tone.

I have seen the garage where they keep the spare cars. It's very industrial looking and you can't see anything. A friend of mine worked at Porsche and had been there. He has some cool stories. Another friend works at Weissach and we have had no luck arranging a visit there.

Very nice... I'd really like to see that prototypes display at the Porsche Museum!
