One thing any first time ED-er should keep in mind is driving over here is very exhausting mentally. IF you are use to driving say 200 miles in on day in the states... plan on trips of 200 ~ 300 kms or so. Think of 1 Km = 1 mile (even though its not! 1 km = 0.6 miles) but driving over here is really hard on your body and mind.

Plus you have a new car and its best to stick to the back (Bundesstrasse) roads (100 kph) and take it easy for the first few days. Don't exceed 170 kph and your diff will thank you later.


Porsche has put together some nice scenic drives for their ED customers.

You can also check out my ED museum & 1addicts @Stelvio threads below on my signature. My other tip would be travel anywhere South of Munich and you will have a blast! Italy is only a little bit over an hour away. Austria and Switzerland also very close by.
