Porsche Museum welcomes 2 millionth visitor

Porsche Origin brings word that the company’s official museum in Stuttgart has welcomed its 2 millionth visitor since opening in 2009. Alas, we’re not in that number, but several AUSmotive readers have been lucky enough to visit the attraction.

Exhibits at the museum have ranged from the 1900 Lohner-Porsche Mixte Hybrid—the world’s first hybrid car—through many production prototypes and one-offs, such as the four-seat Porsche 928-4 presented to Ferry Porsche on his 75th birthday in 1984. Naturally, the company’s legendary racing successes are prominent, with many rare and historic race cars, such as the 1971 Porsche 917/20 ‘pink pig’, on display. Current highlights include the ’60 Years of Super Sports Cars’ exhibition, charting Porsche’s history of exceptional sports cars from the 550 Spyder through to the Carrera GT.
