Porsche museum



Today Jim met with my grandparents and I at the Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof. We caught the S-bahn out to the Porsche Museum.









There were, of course, lots of Porches, of every era.




The bit that Jim really liked was the car that they cut apart right down its length.


Porsche was pretty thorough with this specimen, going as far as cutting the band-aids in emergency kit in the trunk (at the front of the car) in half, along with the user's manual, and a keyboard they had installed onto the glove box for testing purposes.




I also came across an '87 944, which Jim's sister might find interesting (More likely: Appalling) since she currently owns this model of car.



























The V-Rod engine was developed with Porsche

Overall this little trip was mostly for my grandpa because he's always dreamed of owning a Porsche and in a small way he was able to visit this place and see them where they were made.
