Ever visited the German Car Museums ???

Mr. ///M3 RD · 01-27-2012, 07:10 PM

You should go, sometime in your lifetime ... something NOT to be missed, all are fantastic ...

BMW, Porsche, Mercedes, Audi and of course the good old VW.

At Porsche you might even see one on the ceiling

I took this picture in May 2009.

Cool Display!

I've only been to the museums in Sinsheim and Spyer both great places though lots of aircraft on display

I lived in Zuffenhausen when I was a kid, made it back a few years ago and went to the Porsche museum. Great experience!

Yes one of the best I liked the new building and watching the area where they restore the older once real nice.

Taken almost 3 yrs ago. January 31, 2009.

armyav8tor · 01-30-2012, 09:08 PM

Back in 2008 when BMW was still in F1.

armyav8tor · 01-30-2012, 09:12 PM

And then again in 2009. The difference is there.

armyav8tor · 01-30-2012, 09:19 PM

Quattro!!!!!!!

Mr. ///M3 RD · 01-30-2012, 09:55 PM

I saw the BMW F1 in May 2009 in München at Die Welt

Yet another example of how when the Germans do something, they do it right. Thanks Rolf!

I'm planning a trip in September to hit all the museums plus a stop at the Ring for some laps in a TBD race car rental. The trip will end with a 4 day driving tour of the Swiss/Italian alps in a 2012 Porsche 911 Cabrio. This has been my dream trip forever and I've finally got the cash to do it!

Have a wonderful trip ... and if you are anywhere near Hamburg, take in the Miniature Wonderland Museum as well ... it is the largest in the world a taste of it can be seen in the video below. Allow at least 6 hours to see it all ... something not to be missed. It is so good that I will return to see it again on my next trip ... when I was there in 2009 they started to add the airport and planes ... now completed I understand.

Been to the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, Ferrari in Maranello and Lambo in Bologna! Ferrari one was disappointing and most expensive but the Lambo and Porsche ones are great. Will be heading to Munich this year to see the BMW one.

Moxie · 02-01-2012, 12:01 PM

Been in this area for 8+ years, driven by the Porsche & MB museum countless times & have yet to stop in. Maybe this year -

chili cheese · 02-01-2012, 02:33 PM

Yep, been to the Porsche museum. It is a must if you're in the area. If Apple computer designed a car museum, it would look like the Porsche museum....it really is an architectural masterpiece.

Also, the Porsche dealership across the street aint too shabby either.

Watching them restoring the older Porsches right there in the museum what a treat. Don't miss it.

Great place to make an appointment for a test drive and take one on the autobahn and open her up ohhhhh yessssss
