A visit to Canepa Design - 2

Album details

Capture Date: Aug. 13, 2009
City: Scotts Valley CA
Event: Canepa Design

I was in Monterey for 2 weeks, so there were a free days in between Laguna Seca, various concourses, displays, auctions etc. So what do we do a free day? Go to a Porsche workshop/showroom/museum, of course! Canepa Design is in Scotts Valley, north of Monterey. The showroom & museum are open to the public, and there's a catwalk to give views of the workshop. Which I might add is as clean as a hospital. There were a few gaps in the museum because the cars were at Laguna Seca, but what was there was still stunning. The blue Sunoco Camaro is for sale for US$1,200,000 and the black gullwing is US$750,000. The 959s, F40, green 911 RSR, slopenose turbo cabriolet are for sale. The red 911 RSR is part of the museum. I recommend a visit if you're in the area. The people there are very welcoming.

My GAWD. That place looks absolutely insane. THREE different 959s in the photos here ???

No, only the two, red & silver. You'll just have to be satisfied with that.

Isn't the silver 959 in the 4th photo of the top row a different car than the one in the 4th photo second row?

Oh man, there is an example of pretty much every iteration of Porsche royalty in that workshop! How did you sneak into my private garage without my knowledge??!! Ah.... we can dream.
