Porsche Museum

[APXD 30]

It took us 3 visits but we finally saw the inside of the new museum last month.

The first picture, taken from the customer Kasino, shows the site work/foundation in May of '06.

cars

993 concept.  Note the 2+2 rear window on the 911 in the background.

Boxster concept from 1993 (note the Miata's launch in 1989 and Z3 thereafter).

The interior was remarkably close to the production car.  The fan/vent in the door didn't make it though.   As the 986 and 996 had essentially the same interior, it's incredibly dated considering is was designed in the early '90s and stayed in production through 2004.
