Here's a picture I took back in 2009 of the 996 Turbo on display at the Porsche Museum.
Having the 996 Turbo on display is no surprise at all. It's not like Porsche considers the 996 Turbo a red headed step child that they are not proud of, keeping it off the display floor.
Yes, as I wrote the 996TT has been displayed a couple of times before but never in the prominent center stage position it is in now. I consider its current placement an acknowledgement of its reccent renaissance.
In post number eight I wrote it was the first time it has been featured so prominently. Which means that it had been featured before but in areas of the museum I consider not as prominent. As for the rest, I don't care what you consider prominent or what is being read into something too much.

I don't see "a couple of times" anywhere in that.
How many times has the 996 Turbo been on display at the Porsche Museum, and where specifically was it displayed?
History has been kind to the 928 I think. In some ways it was a car far ahead of its time. The real shame test is whether any 924s were around.

I agree. For some reason, they always remind me of a spaceship. I'm glad I bought mine back in 2014 (when $9k could buy a nice one), even though I rarely drive it. They just have a "coolness" factor to them. I'd like to get a 914 for much the same reason, but have probably missed the boat on them since 914 prices have risen above what I can justify for garage decor.
