Wink Excellent Porsche Factory Tour Videos On You Tube

National Geographic has produced an excellent video tour of the Stuttgart Porsche factory that explains in detail how the 911 is made from start to finish. It's approximately 60 minutes long so it's broken into 5 separate videos on You Tube. Below is the link to part 1 of the 5. Just before each segment ends, you will see an icon in the top right corner of the screen that is the link to the next segment. Just click on it to go to the next segment. I have a 2013 991 on order and expect an October delivery here in South Carolina USA. This is an excellent and very informative piece that helped me appreciate what a marvelous piece of machinery the 911 is. Enjoy.

There's an episode on that series that covers the Panamera as well. It's on iTunes in HD here: http://itunes.apple.com/us/tv-season...-2/id519825869

These are great videos. Also, can't help but comment on the paint technician in the 2nd movie around 5:45 in..... Did the get a model to stand in or is that an actual line worker?

"The 911 is the icon of the sports car industry. It's the shape, it's the engine in the back, it's the feeling it gives you, it's the emotion..."

Great quote.

Having done an European Delivery, the video doesn't do it justice.
It is a taste of what is a gourmet experience!
Order your next Porsches and do the ED!!
