The Porsche Museum
"Those who have the good fortune to turn their dream into a
business owe it to the world to be the custodians of such
dreams." This remark by Dr. Ing. h.c. Ferdinand Porsche could
be considered the very cornerstone - at least in spirit - of the
Porsche Museum. His dream did become reality.
themselves, and not by any external prompts telling the visitor
what they should think or feel. The museum furthermore
embraces an educational mission to fulfil a trendsetting cultural
function at the traditional Zuffenhausen location. Using
state-of-the-art museum techniques, the exhibition conveys a
wealth of historical and contemporary knowledge about the
Porsche company. Depending on their individual interests,
visitors can approach the exhibits and the company's history
from a variety of perspectives. Porsche deliberately avoids
marketing-led declarations in its communication with visitors,
instead placing the emphasis on its cultural mission to educate.
The 5,600 square metres of exhibition space in the futuristic
museum building created by Viennese architect Delugan Meissl
accommodate over 80 vehicles - from the first Porsche designs
in the world to the latest generation of the Porsche 911.
Porsche Museum: many visitors from around the world
In the first year after it first opened on January 31, 2009 the
Porsche Museum vividly evoked the appeal and diversity of the
Porsche brand to over 700,000 visitors from all over the world.
By December 2013, the Porsche Museum had welcomed two
million visitors through its doors. It serves as a meeting point
for international customers as well as many others from all over
the world who are fascinated by Porsche sports cars, even if
they do not drive a Porsche themselves. While the bold
architecture of the building reflects Porsche's distinctiveness,
confidence and heritage, the exhibition keeps the history of the
company every inch alive, with all the sports cars in the
"Museum on Wheels" fully functional and capable of springing
into life. That makes the museum suitable not just as an
exhibition space, but also as a platform for communication - a
core component of the regular dialog that Porsche maintains
with the general public.
The interior of the Porsche-Museum.
In keeping with its pre-eminent position within the German
automotive industry, Porsche uses the museum as a platform
for informing national and international visitors about the history
and achievements of the German automotive industry.
Alongside its thematic direction, the most notable attribute of
the exhibition concept is its flexibility, as befits the Porsche
brand. All vehicle exhibits are "mobile" in a very real sense.
Unlike other automotive museums, the Porsche Museum
consciously rejects the "discovery zone" approach. At the
Porsche Museum, the vehicles should be able to speak for
themselves; the thematic thread is provided by the exhibits

Restoration Romantic III: Shipping the 912 to California
When the day came for the transporter to take my trusty steed
away, all of the necessities were packed and the 912 was
ready to be driven into the enclosed trailer. The shipping fee
has to be paid in advance, and you want to be absolutely
certain that the delivery address is correct. I was asked to
allow for three weeks to shuttle the car to its destination in
California, so I notified those involved in my trip about the
timeline.
number so I could keep tabs on my car's progress. During the
week, I received a call from the shipping company stating that
the car would be delivered very soon -- a welcome surprise
after being told to allow for three weeks. I reconfirmed the
delivery address and then called Brian to make sure he could
take the delivery.
The schedule worked for everybody, and within the next 12
hours, I received an email stating that the car had been
delivered. It took just four days for the car to travel from Illinois
to California! Brian confirmed the delivery and sent some
photos showing the car and its new roommates.
On pick-up day, I received a call that the transport truck would
arrive at my home mid-afternoon. And right on schedule, it
arrived as planned. I attribute this partly to my choice in
shipping companies, so be sure to give due diligence and
choose one carefully.

The driver informed me he was ready to load, so I pulled the
car out of the garage and drove it to the base of the trailer.
Before loading it up, he went over the car with a fine-tooth
comb making notes of any imperfections and the contents
inside it. The transporter's objective should be the same as
yours: to unload the car at its destination in the exact condition
as it was sitting at the base of the trailer before the trip. That
said, it's a good idea to take your own photos and make your
own notes.
After the driver fills out the paperwork, I had the option to verify
his notes. They were correct, so I simply signed on the dotted
line and allowed my baby to get loaded into the rig. You can
stay to observe or wave goodbye; I took a few photos then
continued my preparations.
Later that day I received a status email notifying me that my
912 had been picked up. I was also given the driver's phone
