I did the factory tour when I was in Stuttgart last year, really interesting to see where my 986 engine was born. The factory lines are very efficient. Just make sure you don't go on a Monday, the factory is open but the museum is closed. Ask me how I know? I consider it my all-time biggest travel screw up.

A lot of the museums are closed on Mondays but open on Sundays when almost everything else is closed. Pretty common in Germany. Good day to take the cars out for a drive for a speed run on the autobahn or nice drive on a windy country road.

I love the bridge were you see new Carreras on the production line crossing the street.
