Then, a while ago, a dealer representative suggested to me, "How about the Style Edition of the 718?" But at that time, I decided that the Style Edition was not the right choice for my Porsche usage and preferences, so I turned it down.

And after a while, this time'Actually, I have one 718 Cayman T that was cancelled.I was told that I was going to be a part of the project.

The "T" grade is loaded with driving options, and I decided to give it some consideration for now, so I continued my research by reading reviews in Japan and abroad.

However, I felt that I couldn't drive the Porsche any more even if I owned it...and my feelings were at a low ebb for a while.

However, afterCompared a 718 Cayman with a 718 Boxster TI had a very good impression of the 718 Boxster T that I drove at that time, so I felt quite positive about it.

I had to leave the car for a day to change the oil filter on my wife's Carrera T, which had finished breaking in, so I took the Carrera T and headed to the dealership in the morning.

Once at the store, after signing the documents, receiving the keys, and other formalities, it is time to meet the actual car.
I had seen it displayed as a dealer's display car until the other day, so I have yet to feel that it is mine at all.

alsoIt's a lot cooler than it looks on the config screen.

Immediately, the engine is started. The engine sound is a little rough, with a slightly mellow starting sound of a four-cylinder turbocharged engine. The seats have thin, vertical, lizard green stitching, which is very pleasing to the eye.

We left the dealership, being seen off by everyone at the dealership, and went straight to the coating.

I haven't been able to ride it at all yet, so I'll let you have my impressions at a later date, but the legs are very good, even after a few runs.
for a whileI will enjoy it with two "T's", my wife's 911 Carrera T and my 718 Cayman T.
