7/2/202012:24 estFiled to: Porsche MuseumBy: Bradley Brownell4 Comments

Deep in the bowels of Porsche's PEC Atlanta facility lies a very special room where only very special people can tread.

Take A Tour Of Porsche Cars North America’s Heritage Collection

5/13/202011:30 estFiled to: Porsche MuseumBy: Bradley BrownellComment

Porsche's North American headquarters, known colloquially as One Porsche Drive, has a delightful selection of historically significant cars on display at all times. The cars rotate every couple of months, and there is usually a theme. The last time I was there, it was packed with prototypes and I got to lay eyes on the early-1990s Boxster concept …

3/9/20201:00 estFiled to: Porsche MuseumBy: Bradley BrownellComment

The new Brumos Collection in Jacksonville, Florida has not been open long, but it is already one of our favorites. Obviously that is going to be true, because it's packed to the rafters with some of Porsche's best race cars over the years. Thankfully, while in town for the Amelia Island festivities, Brett Sloan of Sloan Motor Cars got an …

Visiting The Porsche Museum In Stuttgart

11/27/20182:16 estFiled to: Porsche MuseumBy: Bradley BrownellComment

When my wife came to me a few months ago with an inexpensive flight package to Europe and a gleam in her eye, I couldn't say no to a week long vacation to the Netherlands, Germany, and Belgium. I only had one stipulation, that I was able to visit the Porsche museum in Stuttgart. After a few days in Amsterdam ambling through art museums and checking …

This Is How Porsche Cares For Thousands Of Original Porsche Engineering Drawings

Weissach Development Center

A 70-year collection of documents sits in a climate controlled beehive of a room in the basement of Porsche's Weissach Development Center. The windowless room is created so that the fragile documents aren't harmed by natural light.

Porsche Built A Wonky Full-Sized 911 Turbo Out Of LEGO

4/20/20187:57 estFiled to: Porsche Artwork, Porsche MuseumBy: Bradley BrownellComment

Porsche's 911 naming structure has gotten a bit out of hand lately, with things like 911 Targa 4 GTS becoming the norm, but they've stepped up that lengthy name convention with the new LEGO Big Brick 911 Turbo 3.0. LEGO recently introduced a scale model version of Porsche's iconic 3-liter 930, which comes alongside a brand new 911 RSR kit, as part …

Porsche Museum Displays Its Oldest 911; 901 no. 057

12/13/201711:08 estFiled to: Porsche MuseumBy: Chris Cushing3 Comments

Before a trademark dispute with Peugeot created one of motoring's most iconic badges, Porsche produced 82 901s. These cars were primarily treated as pre-production cars, and were reportedly not officially sold. Despite this, several have found their way into private hands. Alois Ruf owns number #037, and Ruf restored #018 for a private customer. …

Now You Can Tour The Porsche Museum From the Comfort of Your Home

11/24/201711:49 estFiled to: Porsche MuseumBy: Chris CushingComment

Unfortunately for many of us, the Porsche Museum is simply not well located for a day trip. For most, extensive planning is required just to get there. Dipping out for the afternoon to see some magnificent and historically significant Porsches is just not practical. Thanks to a new real-time audio-visual tour offered through GoInStore, popping in …

Genius on Wheels: Porsche Honors Walter Röhrl at 70.

3/8/20178:25 estFiled to: Porsche MuseumBy: Chris CushingComment

Walter Röhrl began driving with Porsche nearly as soon as he could do so legally. Though not yet a professional driver, young Walter began driving with a Porsche 356B 1600 making just 75 horsepower- after he sourced an engine. This engineless 356 was just the beginning of Röhrl's remarkable career. To honor the man Niki Lauda called a "Genius on …
