Porsche, which had a hard time deciding on the specifications.

That Porsche, the 911 Carrera T, is finally mine.

Yesterday morning, my family of five took the GLB to the dealer.

After arriving at the dealership, we talked about insurance, checked the documents such as the vehicle inspection certificate (I was surprised to see that it was an electronic vehicle inspection certificate with an IT tag) and specifications, and finally went to the actual vehicle.

My first impression of the Carrera T was.It is cooler than I imagined!It was."

I am sure that most people who purchase a car that they love.It's cooler than it looks in the pictures! My car is the coolest in the world!I think I was excited even before I got on the train, and I understood that feeling very well (laughs).

."You didn't choose PCCB?I have been asked, "What is the best way to do it?In this Carrera T, PCCB was not originally chosen.I wonder if it is the influence of semiconductors....

However, even if it were an option, I don't think PCCB would have chosen it because it's out of their budget (laughs).

As for the rear axle steering, I wasn't going to put it on at first because of the high cost of the option, but my husband told me

The rear axle steering is an option for the Carrera T, even though it was originally only available for the S and higher grades.The rear axle steering option on a base 911 is only available on the Carrera T, so you should definitely get it!"

I put it on because he was so passionate about it (laughs).

The Carrera T has door mirrors, trim strips, rear lid grille, "PORSCHE" logo, and "911 Carrera T" logo,Exclusive Aged GrayIt was also a cool accent.

Carrera T, First Impressions!

After being briefed on the navigation system, center screen, etc., we finally decided to leave the dealership. At this point, I still have no sense that it is my Porsche.

Like renting a car and driving home in a Porsche, but with a "I bought this car with my own money and I have a lot of feelings about it, so I mustn't damage it.The tension of "I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not" is mixed with a strange feeling...a strange sensation.

By the way.The sound of the engine starting up was crazy powerful.It was so loud that my oldest son was so scared he ran away (laughs).

Afterwards, I was seen off by the staff of the Porsche Center, while being told off by the staff of the "Porsche Center.You can't stall here...!and nerves sharpened, he set off.

But as expected of the 992, the clutch is light, the clutch meets easily, and the car is quite easy to operate as it automatically blows a little when the accelerator pedal is less agitated.It won't stall unless it's really bad.I wonder.

And my first impression when I started running was.Comfortable to rideIt was". The Carrera T is a sport chassis, so "I wonder how stiff it is... what if it's too uncomfortable to ride at low speeds?I was worried that the car would be too soft, but it was clearly more supple and comfortable than the stock chassis 992 Cabriolet we had at home when we took delivery of it.

Of course, it can be shaken in poor road conditions, but there is no problem at all if it is just going over a manhole, and it is not too hard and uncomfortable at all. However, as for the comfort of this ride, it is not at all difficult to say that it is "comfortable.I've got 18-way adaptive sport seats.My husband said that the reason "may be a big part of the reason.

At any rate, it is a relief to know that this will allow us to enjoy a comfortable drive in the city.

Another thing I felt was, "Quietness of engine noiseIt's really quiet after that. The engine is very quiet after that, as opposed to when you start it. Of course, it is quite loud compared to other cars, but compared to my 992 Cabriolet without a GPF (gasoline particulate filter) and my 981 Boxster GTS, it is quite quiet.

On the way to the "I guess it's quieter because the sport exhaust is turned off.I turned it on, but the volume did not seem to change that much. However, the car is still running at full throttle, and I am conscious of not exceeding 4,000 rpm (the manual says so).

After that.I was planning to go to a nearby Keeper lab to ask for a coating, so I went straight to Keeper.The shift lever is short (short stroke) and can be operated quickly, and unless the driver is very careless, there is no shift shock.

It's a really easy 911 to drive.

Later in the evening, after going to Keeper again to pick up my car, I decided to go to Ashiu for a bit.

I'm still breaking it in, so I can't run it that far,When I increased the speed a little, it was still crazy fast!(On the other hand, it didn't feel quite as light as it could have been). And I felt the terrific handling with the optional rear axle steering.

It starts out mild, but then turns in much more quickly. Even if you take a strange course, it will cut in without any blurring at all. It feels really good. It's just thatThis handling would be even better if it had a growly engine sound...!I couldn't help but think of the 981 Boxster GTS," he said (laughs).

After that, we went to the observatory in Ashiu, where my husband's acquaintances, Porsche owners, were there, and we chatted with them,

."This car will change drastically after 5000 km. The engine sound, feeling, and response will all change drastically, so please look forward to it!I received the information that "I'm so excited! I am so excited!

I still couldn't run much on the first day, but I would like to run as long a distance as possible from now on, so that I can finish my acclimatization drive as soon as possible and be able to run as fast as I can.
I also hope to report on my husband's first impressions and many other things.
