So i Tivoed this series on Nat Geo Hd channel they did Camaro & Lambo i think but just caught the Porsche one this weekend .An awesome hr on the whole 911 plant in Stuttgart where every 911 ever build was made They show great detail on the paint process to engine building & every aspect of building the car from the ground up,very interesting stuff & a must see for every 911 owner.

 

Saw the Porsche one on Youtube with Good Quality, loved it.

 

Nat Geo has been running that series for months. Let's see they have done: Porsche, Ferrari, Lambo, Camaro, UPS, Catapiller, Peterbilt, and a couple of others that I can't recall now. Really interesting series for the most part. The P, F, & L shows were my favorites.

 

Just watched the Porsche factory show. I found it very interesting. I didn't know there is 5000 wields on the car I drive every day. Its really a privilege to drive such a amazing car.

 

NG Ferrari segment was interesting especially during the sand mold process used in making the engine.

Here is similar coverage of a Ferrari build, but in print form from Motor Trend. Virtual Tour: Building a Ferrari 612 Scaglietti: http://www.motortrend.com/womt/112_0...er/index1.html

 

agree about the privilege

 

The Ferrari and Lambo ones were really good. They did Bugatti and Audi but I missed those.

 

I just saw a show on how the Veyron was built but I don't think it was for Ultimate Factory. This showed all the things that had to be overcome in building the car along with all the special steps and devices used during the build. Really fascinating show and makes EVERY other automaker look like early days of mass assembly.

An absolute must see!

 

Great Show. I still have the Porsche episode from October '09 on my DVR. Probably watched it 3 or 4 times.
