To get the most out of the Porsche Boxster GTS (981).

Video of 981 Boxster GTS

Lately, I have been seeing a lot of talk about the 981 Boxster on twitter. The other day, my husband posted a video of a friend of his driving his 981 Boxster GTS. I was surprised to see that it received over 1000 likes.

In the clear weather, with the car open and bathed in the sound of the engine, the driver couldn't help but think, "I'm not sure I'm going to be able to make it.Feels good!!!!(laugh) I could feel the joy of driving the Boxster so much that it made me happy and I watched it over and over again.

But even though it's such a great Boxster, the other day when I drove my Ashi Ari.I couldn't drive the Boxster well.I told my husband about it because I felt that

Maybe it's been so long since I drove a manual transmission that I've forgotten how to drive, like the course and when to shift gears. Why don't you try riding beside the Boxster I drive once?"

So...the other day, I had the kids watch them and we had the opportunity to drive the Boxster together for the first time in a year and a half.

But, as usual, it rained on the day of the event... (I knew it, I knew it...) (I knew it! I knew it!)

First, my husband drove me to Ashiyu Driveway to get a feel for the course and gear shifting, and when I took over driving, my husband in the passenger seat said something like this.

You're driving well, aren't you? I'm taking the line in and out, and since it's raining today, I think this speed is just right. I don't notice anything wrong with the timing of the gearshift, and I think I'm driving well.

."Oh, really? But I don't know why I feel like I'm just driving, or why I'm not impressed like before...My husband said, "I'm not a

Well, it's raining today. I have to drive carefully, and I can't open the roof. This isIf it were a sunny day, it would be totally different.I think.
The rest.Now that I know the high-performance driving of the 992 (911 Cabriolet), I subconsciously compared them.Maybe the excitement is wearing off.
The 981 is also very bendy and has great performance, but the 992's high performance is tremendous.
On the same corner, the 992 would turn more and more, cut in and out, and even without engine noise, without flying, without rolling down the windows, just driving normally is impressive.
I couldn't help but compare it to that run.I'm less impressed than I was when I first got the 981 Boxster GTS.Maybe.
I think it is not limited to the 992 and 981, but also to Porsche and other cars, or even different models within Porsche... I think it is quite common that when you experience a high performance car, you feel that it is not enough.

And. That being said, that may indeed be true.

I want to drive my 981 Boxster on the Okayama Regional Farm Road!

Her husband continued.

But you know what?Not on a good road in a Boxster.I think that's the biggest thing. You haven't experienced the true feeling of the Boxster yet, have you?
I only run in Ashiari, and it is often cloudy or raining.
So, for example, once in a Boxster.Ran on a wide-area farm road in Okayama.I would be very impressed if you could do something like that.
I think a road like that is much more fun on a 981 than on a 992.
The 992 is too high-performance and feels a bit like piloting a robot, but the 981 has a supple suspension and handling that is not as high-performance as the 992, but still tasteful and fun.
And above all, that engine sound.It feels so good to run with that pleasant sound all over your body.The following is a list of the most common problems with the "C" in the "C" column.
So, I really need to go out on those roads once.

And.

It is true that even a great car cannot be truly enjoyed unless it is driven on a road where its performance and charm can be exploded to its fullest.

It used to be calledI wish I could go running on the extensive farm roads in Okayama...I had only a desire to go running, but now that my oldest son is one year old and things have settled down a bit, I'd like to arrange a day for us to go running together this fall!

Please don't let it rain (laughs).
