Default Ultimate Factories - Porsche 911

National Geographic Channel's "Ultimate Factories" series visits the Porsche 911 factory this week (Thurs. 10/22).
Set your DVRs for 8:00 p.m. (Eastern).
The show repeats several times during the week following the Thursday new episode premiere.
Previous episodes have been pretty good.

Get the right one - you don't want 2010 Camaro - well you might, but just a head's up.

Last Saturday night Speed Channel had the Porsche Panamera on their "Speed Test Drive" program. Lots of pretty helicopter shots along the Oregon coast. Meh.

The History Channel’s Modern Marvels episode this evening is entitled, “Superhighways.” Early in the show, the Autobahn is profiled with related attention being placed on the new Panamera. Some Porsche history is presented while the Panamera maneuvers both on the Autobahn and on a test track. If you missed the 7:00pm airing of the show, you can still catch the second airing tonight at 11:00pm (Central).

Thanks.

I caught the Lambourghini Factory show, and it was really interesting.
