This is a Porshe Dealership My girlfriend bought me for Christmas. I have been wanting to snap phtos of it for a while. She ordered it directly off of Porsche website for $120, but its well worth it in my opinion. Enjoy the pics:thumbsup:

Their Porsches, what more is there to say! One of my favorite lines about Porches is from Risky Business when the shop owner asks about who owns the Porsche they got the water out of: "Ok, who's the U-boat Commander?":thumbsup:

I have been eying that up as well. You can order it straight from the dealers as well to avoid shipping.

Couple Questions - doesn't it have a roof and parking on top with a ramp or something?? That was my only concern as it look rather Kid toy like....

Is there a back wall or is that open??

Great pics!!

Looks pretty nice, but I'd want more detail for $120...

Hey Dip, It does have a roof with parking on top and a ramp. There also 3 Norev Porsche's included. A black Cayenne, Red Carrera and yellow Boxster. Im not sure about the back wall as I have never fully assembled it. I will check later and let you Know. Hope this helps Thanks for the compliment about the pics:wave:

Hey Jedi, I have to agree it is a lil pricey, but I just love buildings and Diorama. Thats my weakness lol. It Also comes with a couple of cars, some posters for the showroom, a roof with parking, tool chest and a couple of cars. Oh yeah and a dealership sign for the front where I have the Bentley Parked. It may look a bit better when I have the space to display it properly :).

I'm still debating to myself on getting one of these. I love Porsches but I just don't know if the $100 is worth it and what I would do with it after I get it. I really don't have a place to put it. :confused:

Great pictures!

Nice looking display. At least you didn't have to fork over the money for it either.

i think you better marry that girl l.o.l.
i like the little revolving door that is a nice touch and the turntable to put a car on . the building is kind of art deco and future world style . as far as the price goes its simple you like something you buy it , yes it is only plastic but try making something like that time and material you couldnt do it for 120.dollars i think it is neat

the dealership here looks about the same

what i meant was most car dealerships are boring square buildings a rounded building was when art deco buildings were first being made everything was being streamlined like cars, a square 30s car then look at 40s 50s cars the building has the old look and new style all in one .

this is from the 50s the look of the future l.o.l. my husband collects this kind of stuff hes a 50s guy this is a long time before i was born . l.o.l.

Very cool. I'm guessing thats what all the Porsche dealerships will now look like. They just finished building the new one like that here late last year. I think you would have to be pretty creative and resourceful to make something just like that for $120. Pricey, but well bought IMO

Stretchdog -

Hey just got the last one in my area - very cool indeed.

Have one part I am not sure about - if has some of the same silver siding that the front faschia of the building has abd is about 6" long and about a half inch square with a slight bend on each ned. I am not sure what the piece is used for???

I am using mine without the ramp to the roof and will be relocating to a different base but can not for the life of me figure out what the extra piece is for........ Any ideas??
