I thought that you all would like to see some pictures that I had from my trip to Europe last summer. These pictures are of what is called Die Glaserne Manufaktur, or better knows as the Transparent Factory. This is the assembly plant where the Phaeton is produced. This place was amazing. Unfortunately they would not allow pictures to be taken inside. We were able to get a private tour of the facilities. :D

This is a picture of the transfer tower where the cars are stored until shipment. Its was awesome. All I could do was stand there and count 90 thousand, 180 thousand, 270 thousand, and so on and so fourth. There were about 200 cars or so in the tower, maybe more.
