German Porsche Activites

[motogman]

I am going to be in Germany for the weekend of the Sept 13-15th in the area around Frankfurt,, NW and maybe Stuttgart. Can anyone on this site suggest PCA or other P CAR or other activities in that area that weekend that could be if interest to an enthusiast?

Not sure what you want to do, however, the Sinsheim museum is always something to see.

Or take a trip the Stuttgart to the Porsche Museum.

is Frankfurt auto show this year ?

Run in the odd years so yes - 2013 (10-22 Sept.) and next year Paris... Hours + drive to the Ring... Hochenheim is not too far away... And of course Porsche Museum Stuttgart is a reasonable distance.

I highly recommend the Porsche museum. They have display of 5 cars that are on rotating platforms that are flush with the floor. The cars rotate in sync but at a very slow speed so that you walk across it and not get tripped up. They also have a 917 engine blown apart like you would see in a parts manual. Another nice thing is that give you a head set that plays in your given language. So when you approach a display you can hear/understand the commentary. The museum is literally across the street from the factory. This is me in front of the museum. When I say in front, I mean the picture was taken with me facing the museum. If you look carefully at the sky bridge you can see 911 bodies going across.

Though, from Frankfurt, Stuttgart is a looong drive, even at autobahn speeds. However it's worth the drive.
