are factory tours available in august? i'll be in germany from 4 august to 14 august

my dealer told me the factory is closed then have any of you visited zuffenhausen in august? what did you see? <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

You can phone Stuttgart directly. Contact person for tours there is Ms. Ina Schlegel Her number: 0049 711 911 53 84 (you will have to add the prefix for international calls from the States, think it is 0011)

thanks for the information. do you know if she has an email address or fax #?phone calls are a problem with the large time difference <img src="graemlins/sleep.gif" border="0" alt="[sleep]" />

Fax 0049 711 911 51 11

For what it's worth I also arranged my tour through Ina Schlegl but I have written down slightly different numbers: Fax 49 [phone removed] Phone 49 [phone removed] I don't know if they're correct but I did get through to her on the phone. Extremely nice lady and speaks english a lot better than I speak german. regards Jon

thank you both for your kindness! <img src="graemlins/wave.gif" border="0" alt="[byebye]" /> i will get in touch with the nice lady by fax and i will report back soon what luck i have had

I was there in august as well. factory was closed, but the Museum is still open and worth a visit. have fun

i just sent my faxes tonite to both #'s above. i'll report back when ina answers. <img src="graemlins/yltype.gif" border="0" alt="[typing]" />

The mont of August is the traditional European vacation months. Many businesses are closed; roads are packed with vacationing tourists.

Ignacio, are you coming with your C4S ? Nice way to try the autobahn!!

unfortunately the c4s will not fit properly in my suitcase <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[crying]" /> i will be leasing a new mercedes e class sedan from europcar for 1300 euros for 26 days including 3000 km. we will also be visiting switzerland and austria. probably the highlight of our vacation will be the "porsche austrian experience" from 16 august to 18 august in the tyrole through the porsche travel club on the porsche website. both my wife and 19y.o. son are also participating as drivers. we hope to be able to sharpen our technique there <img src="graemlins/jumper.gif" border="0" alt="[jumper]" /> <img src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" border="0" alt="[hiha]" /> <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" />

[quote] unfortunately the c4s will not fit properly in my suitcase <hr></blockquote> Ignacio, Some people ship the car by boat (..price??) so is funny to see some(rarely) plates from Usa and Canada around here!. Enjoy your trip, if you come to Switzerland try to visit the Swiss central region (Berner Oberland) Also the tyrole region in Austria is nice. Lots of green great landscapes. About the Porsche Austrian exp. I heard is a very reputable drving stage. Good luck. <img src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

bilstein returning a porsche to europe would be like taking coal to newcastle! in any case, on this trip i need a 4 passenger car. i intend to return in the future and take advantage of other porsche travel club holidays. <img src="graemlins/jumper.gif" border="0" alt="[jumper]" /> the swiss tour package in a 911 sound particularly attractive! <img src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" border="0" alt="[hiha]" />
