I'd do the same.

 

Flights booked!

 

 

4 more sleeps!

Where does the time go?

 

I'll be in Germany for two weeks this october. Rented an M140i, so Ill have to make due with my own adventure

 

 

Lufthansa's product is old and dated. We stick with AC first class and get access to this (which is pretty good)

Looks nicer than the maple leaf lounge. I've never seen First Class offered by AC.

 

We just returned home from this trip.Overall, I would describe it as outstanding and exceptional. It was also surprisingly good value. There was enough freedom to travel where and when you wanted. The Avis-supplied 911s were perfect. We all had cabriolets, ranging from a Carrera 4 to a couple of GTS's. Most were C2S and C4S models.

The hotels were truly exceptional in all regards. All 5-stars, in great locations, with staff who were genuinely happy to find ways to make your stay perfect.

The organisers did an amazing job handling problems. Jamie140 can speak more to that as he was one whose car needed mechanical help. Mostly, drivers destroyed the right-side wheels and tires. The roads up in the high passes are narrow (less than 2 cars wide), very tight, blind corners, with virtually no shoulders, sharp rocky curbs, speed limits often higher than you maintain. I would have no problem recommending Autobahn Adventures. Many of the group on this tour are repeat customers, we all talked about coming back, and some couples have multiple future tours already booked.

 

How the hell are you guys destroying rims and tires?? I've been on the Glockner twice and all over the black forest and numerous small regional roads without so much as a chip. Of course if you play boy racer pretending to apex every narrow mountain road without caring it can happen...

 

 

I've gone on the organized trips (the competition) with Porsche's as well as renting a 991 on my own from Avis de. When I returned the car back to the train station in Munich after a week, the girl checking the car over went around every rim, checked the body intimately and then checked the whole windshield. She spoke really good English so I flippantly asked her if she would be using an electron beam microscope next. I got a very sour face from her and she tore the sheet off the clip board (signed) and handed it to me without a word. They really like to deduct damage from that deposit.. That's why I treated the car with cotton gloves and was very precise when driving and parking. I also only parked it where it was hard to get a ding in the doors - Munich being way worse than Stuttgart for crappy looking cars parking near you. But I was warned ahead of time about Avis return inspections from Peter Sontag when I mentioned I was going to return and rent on my own. His heads up on green painted traffic cameras in the bushes around Stuttgart or at the entrances to tunnels paid off as my VISA survived any additional charges. I have friends that can't say this after driving in Germany and Austria!
