The other day, I drove an air-cooled 911 (964C2) with my family of four to my husband's parents' house. It takes about 3 hours round trip from my house to my parents' house via expressway. The morning of the day"I've never seen a family of four out in an air-cooled 911 before!"I was so excited that I packed all the souvenirs and stuff for my parents' house into the trunk of the 911, but even my bag with the kids' diapers and change of clothes didn't fit in it...'Then let's put it at the feet of the kids in the backseat!'But in fact, there is not even space for that....
I had no choice but to load them in the footwell of the passenger seat, so I had to sit cross-legged or cross-legged the entire way (laughs).
I guess narrow Porsches must be even narrower than this, since this is the case with a 964.
Also, at first my daughters were in a good mood and rode in the back seat, but then they started to skirmish... and then they both started crying and acting up, so I had to take them back to the car.A short break at a parking area on the way, then I sit in the back seat.To.
The back seat of my 911 (964C2) was smaller than I expected.Or rather, low....My head was completely on the ceiling of the car. And it wasn't just barely touching the ceiling, it was on the ceiling with my guts.If I could blow the ceiling off with my head at this rate, I'd sit up easier."I even thought it was a good idea.
Then what the heck, we arrived at my parents' house safely. However, since I was usually used to traveling medium distances in a Panamera, it was more difficult and tiring than I had imagined to travel with my family of four in a 911 (964C2).
We finished our errands and I was to drive home. I drove my 911 (964C2) for the first time in a long time that day.Even though it was my first nighttime ride, the feeling was very different from my previous ride.
Originally, my image of the 911 (964C2) was not so good and I thought it was "a battered and broken car.(Sorry)When I first rode it, I was amazed at how well it performed, and I was thrilled that it had been made more than 30 years ago.
That feeling didn't change at all.I was no longer "happy to drive!" I no longer felt like I was having fun.Rather, there were many scenes where I felt it was rather "difficult to drive".
Usually when I drive on the highway, I drive a 971 Panamera Turbo, but in the case of the PanameraEven if the driver's driving skill is somewhat poor, the car will run reasonably well.Thanks to its stability, power, acceleration, and ease of steering operation, the car can make uphill curves on the Chugoku Expressway at high speed without thinking about it.
If anything, I even got into the habit of accelerating slightly as I rounded a curve because I wanted to accelerate more and more as I rounded the curve!(Hey, you don't know the basics of driving.)
But in the case of 964, it just doesn't work that way.Good basic driving skills are required.I mean... of course, there's nothing wrong with normal driving.Basic driving skills are required for the driver to achieve Porsche's unique "running, turning, and stopping" performance.I think. I always felt like I was being taken out of a 911 (964C2) and into a
You drive a Porsche?
I even felt as if I was being tested.
When turning a corner, decelerating before that corner, accelerating after a corner, and in various other situations, I was more cautious and nervous than I should have been, andThe lights do not illuminate as crisply as the latest LED lights in the Panamera.because of ...(Chinese cars at night are dark)It was hard to see what was ahead and felt even more frightening.
I had that feeling the whole time, so I had to drive with stiff shoulders, gritted teeth, and stiff shoulders (laughs).
My husband couldn't stand to see it.What's wrong with you? You're so stiff! Relax more!"They said, "Oh no! I can't do it even if you say so!" I argued with him...
Also, in my case, when I checked the car following me in the mirror of my 911 (964C2), I felt that the distance was very close.(The left side on the driver's side felt closer, but the right side was normal)I was still in a hurry when a standard domestic car approached me from behind.
'Oh no! I'm getting agitated!"
and immediately gave way, my husband told me that he was going to
No, no, no, I'm not agitated at all. You may think you are close, but you are far behind me. And 100%, I'm faster than you, so don't worry about it and drive at your own pace. Your mental state is reflected too much in your driving. You need to be more level-headed!
I was told, "You're not going to make it home. After about an hour and a half, I managed to get home, but it was different from driving on the highway in a Panamera.
This is not to say that the 911 (964C2) is not good.In fact, if you can master it, it is a very fun car!I think. They run true to the driver's intentions and operations, andA true sense of oneness between man and horse.I wonder if this will be the case. But I felt again that it will take a long time for that to happen.
My husband, on the other hand, has been having a lot of fun with his 911 (964C2) lately.
I'm having too much fun. I think I'll take the 911 on my next holiday and drive around the country roads of Sanda all day long.
He was mumbling something about it. I love it...I still have a long way to go to become a Porsche driver.
