Family Touring with Porsche 911 GT3 and Boxster

With the 911 GT3 and Boxster The other day, our family took a trip to nearby Arima Onsen in the 911 GT3 and Boxster. We decided on a whim just before leaving, and when we checked, there were still rooms available, so we went for it. It was a rare sunny day. We packed our luggage into a slightly larger suitcase, and when my husband tried to put it in the car trunks, surprisingly, it...

Should You Get Porsche’s Popular Option: Air Suspension?

What Is Air Suspension? The other day, I wrote that if anyone wanted me to review a certain Porsche option, please leave a comment. I received a request saying, “please write about whether air suspension is necessary or not,” so today I’d like to talk about that. Thank you so much for all the other comments as well. It might take me a little time, but I hope to write review articles in order. Air...

Taycan Next After Panamera? Or Cayenne? Or Could It Be the Unexpected 911?!

The Next Car After the Panamera Since last fall, we’ve been talking about replacing our Panamera, as I mentioned in a previous article. The Panamera’s inspection is due this October, so we’re considering switching to another car by then. However, even though we say “just switch,” it’s not that simple. It’s been about half a year since last fall, but we still haven’t decided on the next candidate car. It’s not that we haven’t thought...

Nissan Note e-POWER NISMO S Delivered! What Does a Porsche Owner Think!?

My husband had been looking for a used car for his commute since last year, and at the end of last month, our home welcomed the Nissan Note e-POWER NISMO S. Since he’s been using it not only for commuting but also for touring Shikoku and driving the Royu Driveway, I decided to ask him about his impressions of the NISMO. The NISMO Arrives at Our Home Delivery day was unfortunately rainy. That day, my...

What You Notice When Driving a Panamera After a Porsche Boxster

Panamera and Boxster Come to think of it, I haven’t written much about the Panamera on the blog lately. Since our home parking space only fits two cars, we rent several other parking spots elsewhere. And because the Panamera has been parked for a while at a spot a bit farther from home, it hasn’t seen much use recently. However, to avoid the battery dying, the other day we decided, “Maybe we should swap the...

Should You Get Porsche’s Popular Option PASM?

About PASM Following my recent posts, Should You Get Porsche’s Popular Option Sport Chrono Package? and Should You Get Porsche’s Popular Option Sport Exhaust?, this time I’d like to write about the PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management) option. PASM is a chassis (suspension-related) option. According to Porsche’s official site, The electronically controlled damper system PASM enhances driving stability, comfort, and performance.

It’s Not ‘Going Touring by Porsche,’ It’s ‘Going Touring wi...

Alone in the Boxster on the Royu The other day, my husband was talking with an acquaintance. When he said, “I often go on long tours up to Tohoku,” he was asked, “Do you go with your family?” and he replied, “No, of course I go alone!” which surprised them. When he got home, he said with a grin, That’s obvious. Going solo is the best way, lol. He often says, “Touring is best done...
