Autostadt - A bit of history I say !

Have been thinking of posting these pics for a very long time now (Dec 2010). Here you go, pics from my visit to the Big Fat Mama - VW HeadQuaters and the AutoStadt!

The Autostadt has always fascinated me, especially that parking system of theirs for cars that are ready for delivery. I think they could probably have chosen a better display concept for the Veyron, but the Diablo looks just fabulous. I hope to make it there soon. Maybe visit all the museums of the German carmakers

Now that will be a trip!

Fantastic pictures, greaky!

Visiting this place is a more like a dream coming true. So much history to gulp! As FlyingSpur rightly said, a visit to Germany is on my travel list, just to visit places such as Autostadt and Stuttgart!!!

Love the yellow Miura! What a car... one of my all time favorites. I am able to identify a couple of others too. What car is between the Countach and Diablo, the matte black one? And if it is not too much to ask, could you please enlist rest of the identities as well?

The Veyron looks more like clicked pics of a scale model. lol.

P.S. A Honda S800 too! Interesting.

It's some sort of a racing car by VW..

I totally agree with you, I was disappointed to say the least. Same was the case with the Lambhorgini (they have a sound and laser show which is totally unimpressive.)
