However, all of the cars were excellent, and it seemed difficult to rank them.

Car of the Year 2023!

No.3 Toyota GR Supra RZ "Matte White Edition

New Supra

Just the right balance between a sports car and a grand touring car. The comfortable and supple legs and suspension are quite excellent. It is soft enough to support sporty driving, and yet it is wonderful in that it makes the driver feel good while operating the car.

There are other cars that are simply fast, but the reason for the award is that the set-up of the car gives the driver a solid sense of quality as well.

2nd Porsche 911 Turbo (997)

Porsche 911 Turbo (997]

The "Turbo" grade is a car with a strong duality. At low speeds, the ride is comfortable and pleasant, but once the whip is turned and the turbo boost is applied, the car has a furious sense of acceleration and excellent cornering performance.

Nowadays, the compact body makes people forget that it is a four-wheel-drive or turbocharged car, which was also a point of high appreciation.

1st Porsche 911 Dakar (992)

Porsche 911 Dakar

The first place with a reflection was the Porsche 911 Dakar (992).

It's not just a tall, leisurely 911." The fact that it was built as a true rally car is immediately apparent when you drive it. The special Pirelli tires are excellent, and while they are all-terrain tires, they have more than enough grip, comfort, and high-speed stability. The sound performance and blipping control of the PDK are also excellent, and I think the Carrera T and this Dakar are the only 992s that are fun to drive in the low speed range.

The primary reason is that the 992 offers not only high performance and speed, but also driving pleasure.

Thank you again for your support this year.

Thank you very much for letting us drive your cars this year. Also, thank you for supporting our blog, "A Porsche Came to Our House.

This year, I've been updating at a particularly slow pace.youtube live streamingis done almost every Saturday from 9:00 p.m. (This year's distribution is over, and will be again at the beginning of next year,)

Thanks to all of you, we are able to continue to enjoy blogging together as a couple, and we are truly grateful for your support.

I have actually been thinking a lot about my own car life over the past few weeks and have made a decision. I hope to report more about this in an article later in the year.

We look forward to your continued support of "Porsche Comes to My Home" in the coming year.

Have a Happy New Year!

    Mina, Hiro

    I always enjoy looking at your site.

    I also vote for the Porsche 911 Dakar (992)!

    I also vote for "why not be a regular model?"

    That way we can drive the 911 all year round, even in snowy areas.

    Thank you for another year of hard work.

    Have a Happy New Year!

      It was a car that my husband raved about, as if it was a shame that so few were produced.
      We look forward to working with you next year!

    I always look forward to seeing them.
    I would like to vote for the 911 Turbo.

    I was driving a 911.1. It was my dream, I had driven a Boxster and a Cayman, and now it was time.

    It was a good experience, although I ended up giving it up without knowing how far the 911 I admired was capable of going.

    I guess the 911 Turbo has a different place than the Carrera.

    Please be sure to post your various experiences next year. We look forward to seeing them!

      >I guess there is something different about the 911 Turbo than the Carrera.
      My husband also said, "Turbo is different. It's totally different, and it's only because it's called a turbo! He raved about it.

      I would also like to drive a 911 Turbo someday.

      We look forward to working with you again next year!
