Re: In the bylanes of Stuttgart: The Non-Touristy Auto Enthusiast way!

This reminds of my visit to Germany in November 2005. I was staying in Cologne. Over the 1st weekend I travelled by train (changing 3 trains) to Stuttgart. I went to Badd Canstatt of Stuttgart where the pilgrimage centre of every follower of car lover's religion like us. I was my dream and God helped me fulfill it. I had to wait at railway station called Giesen in sub degree temperature but never realised its effect due to excitement until I was back in my hotel room in Cologne. I will never forget it. Its an experience of my life time and would like to go there again. I was back in India and in 6 months was also able to buy a W123 300D.

Edmund,

I hope you dont mind me posting some Stuttgart snaps in your thread. I was there last year and visited only the Mercedes and Porsche museums. Most of the snaps I took at the Mercedes museum got wiped out my disc. So never had the heart to post a thread of my visit. But the Porsche snaps are there and pretty detailed. In case you have visited the Porsche museum and would like to post snaps I can request moderator to move my snaps to a separate thread

Re: In the bylanes of Stuttgart: The Non-Touristy Auto Enthusiast way!

You will need a whole day to do the mercedes museum. Half a day for porsche. The merc museum is a real joy and an architectural marvel. outstanding.

Also a bit OT but if you like beer there is this little micro brewery on the plaza forget the name. look it up. fantastic wheat beer. I am not a beer drinker but really enjoyed it

Just in case you have to make a choice, Go for Mercedes. Its worth it.

Also Merc museum is closer to the city centre than the Porsche museum.

Re: In the bylanes of Stuttgart: The Non-Touristy Auto Enthusiast way!

Awesome pics!! Thanks for sharings guys. The Porsche musuem pics reminded me of a chapter of my life when I was crazy over NFS 5 PU, getting excited over every subsequent picture as if unlocking cars of different eras in the game!!! Brought back a lot of memories and made me happy that Ferdinand Porsche and Karl benz were born!

cheers
