Porsche Factory Museum Pictures posted

Hey guys,

My wife and I spent some time in Germany in August and made a stop at the Porsche factory museum. I tried to take a picture of at least every car, and many I took multiples, including the plaques that described the car and or its history.

http://gtmbuild.com/galleries/porsche-factory-museum/

Heres a couple:





Hope you enjoy them... and if you have any questions, let me know.

David

Nice photos.

Who is the nice young lady in the background of the first photo?

Frau Borden?

Did you have fun in the Fatherland, by which I mean the Nuerburgring Nordschlieffe?

Yup, Frau Borden! how'd you know? When we stayed in Rothenburg, she bought a little metal sign "Frau Power"

We made it up to the "Ring" Quite a day! Got a tour of the historic paddock, F1 track, press area, and track history. Great tour and only a few EU. Then bought the magic ticket and took a lap on the track. Really a remarkable experience!

Nice pics. Thanks. I got a kick out of the reference to driver "Theo Fabi" in the info sheet about the Porsche CART racer. Is he related to the driver "Teo Fabi"? It does correctly mention the car's only win at Mid-Ohio -- I was at that race.

Thanks.
