ULTIMATE 996 ROAD TRIP back to the Porsche production line… 25 years after they left!

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!

Another great video by Lee. Thanks for organizing this roadtrip and I will definitely join the upcoming ones! Was a great experience and best of all meeting everyone. Cheers!

[@9WERKSTV]

A pleasure to have you along, Abel! Thanks for joining us.

[@flatsixer70]

Love that...as a 996 driver 👌👌👍👍

[@enriclibert545]

Nice to see this beautiful 911, 996 the most special carrera👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻thanks Lee

[@Askgeez]

Did the same trip , and agreed , parking on Porsche Platz is an indelible memory

[@nickjones1677]

Thanks Lee! Great vid and rekindles some memories!!

[@stephenchapis268]

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.

[@mattdedasc]

Great video

[@bimbeano]

There is an ever better D996 in the South of France from Le Rozier to Meyrueis.

[@seniorscientist590]

Excellent!

[@benfuit]

Hope see you next time. Between Gueux circuit and German border, you passed on highway A4, near METZ, where I live. I hope I can join you

[@carfan3762]

Roadtrips, good opportunities to share car passion and make friends !

[@corychecketts]

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

[@blahblahblah3931]

It was an amazing trip, thanks Lee. Really glad I signed up and good to stretch the legs of the CSR! Onto the next one…

[@9WERKSTV]

Cheers Anthony! Equally, it was great to have you along (especially for your birthday!) and that CSR is special!

[@HawkMillFarm]

Nice one, slick presentation Lee, enjoyed that.

[@9WERKSTV]

Cheers David!

[@daggidding4478]

Great video, Lee. A road-trip with like minded people is always a joy!

[@9WERKSTV]

Cheers Dag, it really was a blast and it was the people who made it so awesome.

[@996Revival]

[@Bob-ut]

My 04 anniversary edition is jealous

[@cannonbawzrun]

Great video stunning cars amazing adventure

[@henryatkinson1479]

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.

[@markweisgram155]

Great video, very nicely done.

[@9WERKSTV]

Cheers Mark.

[@RalfGrun-vx4mc]

Sehr schön 🤩 super schöne 996er Danke 🙏🏻 für den schönen Beitrag.

[@nigelvergas6103]

Everything about the trip was above and beyond what I hoped for. Just amazing thanks Lee.

[@9WERKSTV]

My pleasure Nigel, it was great to meet you and have fun for a few days!

[@TobyD]

Great video. Great trip. Well done Lee and everyone. Looks like a blast 👍

[@kesterhewett1234]

I wish I'd been there!!! The porker has been back once but would be good to visit again one day.

[@martindean1205]

Great video Lee. Informative and very professionally produced.

[@9WERKSTV]

Thanks Martin.

[@paulneath7626]

Looks like I missed a great trip, well done to all looks like you all had a fantastic time.

[@shokrefumi]

Great video! Who makes the wooden gearshift knob?

[@fairfaxa]

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

Well delivered Lee (as usual 👍). What’s the significance and origins of your channel name again, please?

[@9WERKSTV]

Cheers Christopher. 9WERKS TV is an arm of my online Porsche community, 9werks.co.uk.

[@tonycoughlin911]

What the heck is "the full acruitment of 996 Carreras" @1:11 ??? Was this your attempt at Francais??? 🤣🤣

[@leehartshorn1479]

Whereabouts do you organise these on Lee? As I'd certainly love to come along to whatever ones I can make in the future

Sorry, not all euro trips start at the channel tunnel. Hull-Rotterdam is much easier from Lancashire.

[@Your_Digital_ID]

It's pronounced "RANZ"!

[@9WERKSTV]

What is?!

[@redgt3244]

Awesome video, I’m a bit jealous because I live in the US.❤

[@pablos3563]

No GT2, no GT3, no Turbo WLS, no Turbo S, no even just Turbo. And where is all of these?
