Thank you for the nice pictures. I visited the old museum in the 90's and remember that it was a pretty interesting place back then, although the sorroundings were not nearly as nice. My most vivid impression was seeing Porsche No. 1, the mid-engine roadster built in Gmund. Good memories!

I went this June. Was great to see the photos & see how they change some of their cars so makes me wanna go back!

Did you get to do a factory tour? I didnt know my dates to Stuttgart early enough and couldnt get a tour. But at least have something to look forward too

+1 on the museum and the factory tour. Also, don't forget to eat at the gourmet restaurant on the top floor.

I went to the Museum in September, but couldn't get a factory tour as I too didn't know the dates of my trip far enough in advance. I'll go again, so no issues. I did make the Mercedes factory tour which was awesome!

Thanks for posting reminded me of my visit two years ago, recognize many of the cars. Another cool thing was just standing outside and seeing the different Porsche cars drive by, the dealer across the street had a nice showroom as well.

The RS 4.0 was actually parked at the dealership across the street in the service area. They had 2 Carrera GT's in that dealership, a yellow one for sale and a customer's car with Florida plates.
