Photos: Porsche Museum opens its doors

While Ferrari fans have had a flashy museum in Maranello, Italy, to make pilgrimages to for years, Porsche fans have had to be satisfied with a small, 20-car, rotating exhibit near the company factory. Not anymore, though -- the new Porsche Museum at the company's headquarters in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen, Germany, opened on Saturday.

On Wednesday, we got a sneak peek at the interior, which contains 5,600 square metres of exhibition space, as well as a restaurant, a rooftop terrace, a 'Porsche Archive' library, conference facilities, a workshop where mechanics tinker with cars, and a shop that will, at times, offer collectors' items.
