    In the first ever 9WERKS road trip, nine Porsche 996s embarked on a special pilgrimage back to the very place where they were first made in Zuffenhausen around 25 years ago.
    This epic road trip, celebrating a quarter of a century since 996 production started, took in a number of great driver's roads including the aptly-named D996 in France, before arriving back on Porscheplatz and taking pride of place outside the Porsche Museum, and right next to Werk II, where these fifth-generation Porsche 911s were once made.
    A big thank you to the Porsche Museum team for working with 9WERKS to deliver such a spectacular road trip for our party. Thank you to everyone who attended the road trip, we all left as friends!

    Cool video, butI was surprised t hear that Porsche owners never return to the factory. Quite the opposite of Corvette owners (we have a ‘79 and an ‘18) that can revisit the plant and the adjacent museum. We lived about 11 hours fromBowling Green but have been lucky to visit twice.

    The raspy exhaust notes of those M96 engines is superb! One of the best sounding 911 motors.

    Love the early arctic silver. My car is similar (arctic silver over space grey) and is from the first batch of US market cars, wish it would have been feasible to bring it out to Stuttgart.

    Brilliant Video Lee, thankyou! I want a piece of this... I have just bought a 10/97 build RHD Carrera Manual, cable throttle with no traction control and factory delete rear wiper. My car is arctic silver and was delivered new with 18" turbo wheels. Can you please put me in contact with the Swiss owner, Abel? I am looking to buy a set of the 18" turbo twists that had been removed from my car prior to my ownership. Would love to know the size and offsets of the wheels on Abel's car, as we literally have identical cars, and I suspect very close in production numbers. Cheers, from Australia. Adam
