Default So I went to Stuttgart..

I was recently in Germany and had to make the pilgrimage.

What a fantastic experience it was. It was more art gallery than museum . I loved how all the cars were basically in the open.







I will share some pics but not all as I took about 500.

Excellent shots. Did you get one of the car with Kees Nierop's name on it? He is the only Canadian driver in the museum with his name on a car.

And yes got to agree those 70s RSRs are my favorite as well, here's the one that was at Hershey PA last year.

No as it was Easter Sunday. A client of mine went on the following Tuesday but *sadly* I was in Italy during that time. I must say that driving an A3 cabrio through the alps was great fun and a bucket list moment! Drove the Stevio Pass until the town of Trafoi, the road was closed to the actual "pass". However the other roads around were fun

This one? I will also note that this isn't the only car with a Canadians name on it in the Porsche collection...
