My Family's Car Life

Is a car "unnecessary" or "necessary" in life? A Wife of Porsche Driver Husband's Opinion

Cars are not necessary in life.

Until I met my husband, I was a "I don't need a car to live.I thought, "I'll never own a car in my life. So I was convinced that I would never own a car in my life.

Growing up in the country, my family lived in a car.I have been a paper driver since I got my driver's license in my first year of college, and I use public transportation such as bicycles, buses, and trains to get around.The company was

In addition, since I started living alone, I have been living in an apartment near a train station in the city.Once at the station, trains come every few minutes and you can get anywhere on time.I was so accustomed to living in a "traffic-free" lifestyle that I never thought of wanting a car at all.

So at the time, I didn't understand people who owned cars.It costs a lot of money, so why waste it like that? If I want an occasional ride, a rental car would suffice.I thought, "I'm not going to be able to do that.

I met and married my husband about 10 years ago, and we now have six cars in our house.

Now I don't feel any discomfort when my husband says things like, "I'm going for a run in Kagoshima," "I'm going on a business trip to Tokyo, so I'll take the car," or "I've driven 2,000 kilometers, but I haven't driven enough.Every car has its own charm and I can't let it go.Whenever my husband said, "I know what you mean... they are all great cars.I've started to reply with "W" and so on.

Of course, things have changed since I was single, largely because I now have three children and my home is in the suburbs, but "I guess human thinking can change 180 degrees.I am surprised myself," he said.

Well, it would be like saying, "My husband has brainwashed me well..." (-_-)

However, over the past few years, I have been working on myMy sense of value for cars has changed.I'm sure it is.

I used to be a "Cars are just a means of transportationI thought it was a waste of money to spend money on it. But as I met my husband and experienced life with a car, I gradually came to realize that "Cars can enrich our lives.I began to think, "I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.

In addition, theMy husband owns a car because he values the emotions and experiences that the car brings to him more than the car itself.I learned that it was a "one-stop shop".

I would like to try to sort out a few things about this area today.

What comes through the car

Travel time turns into "fun" time.

Driving a sports car like a Porsche is pure fun and happiness. I used to be a "Driving a car for a long time is tiring.I had an image of a "Porsche," but when I drove a Porsche

I wish I could ride longer..."

This is how I feel.

In the pastI drove 1000 km round trip from my house to Fuji Speedway and back by myself in a Panamera.Even at times, whenI drove 800 km round trip to Hokuriku and back in a MT Boxster.time, as home drew nearer.

'Oh, this fun time is already over...I'm kind of sad...'

I felt like I was in the right place at the right time.

I am amazed and impressed by the handling, acceleration, lane changes, braking, high-speed stability, engine noise, and many other aspects of driving, soExhilarating feeling of being in a sport, rather than feeling like you are "on the move" even when driving long distancesYou can taste the

My husband used to

If you think driving long distances is tiring, maybe you haven't had the experience of driving a good car on a good road. I think once you have that experience, you'll change your mindset.

But I really think that is true.

Create memories with your family.

With a two-seater car, it is honestly difficult to make family memories...but when we had a Panamera in our home, we took many road trips in the car.

Kyushu by ferryto orFuji and Fuji Speedwayto theWent to the circuit to watch the race.The hotel is located in the center of the city, and is a short drive from the city center to a hot spring...

Children in the back seat.I'm hungry," "I have to go to the bathroom.It was difficult to take frequent breaks at SAs, but now I have good memories of all of them.

Especially now that it's harder to come and go freely in Corona."I'm glad I went, even if I had to push myself a bit at the time.I think."

I also asked the children about those days.I had a blast and would go back!I guess those are still good memories for them, because they still say, "I've been there.

Of course, many family memories can be made by traveling by train or plane instead of by car.

But in my family's case, it's just...My husband is the kind of person who loves to drive anyway, so car travel is a prerequisite.And since both the couple are the type who like to move freely at their own leisure without worrying about train departure times, I am glad that the whole family was able to enjoy themselves and make many memories through the car.

Circle of People Expanded by Cars

My husband bought a Porsche and started going to Ashiu Driveway a lot.From there, the circle of people expanded greatly.As we get older, I think we meet fewer and fewer people outside of work, but I look at my husband and think how wonderful it is to be able to share time with people who share the same values and respect through hobbies.

I have also met many people through Twitter. There are many people I have yet to meet in person, but I find it very interesting that so many connections are being made across generations.

."Your life depends on who you meet.As the word "car" often means, meeting wonderful people through cars and expanding your world makes your life richer and richer, and on the other hand, "car" is a great way to get to know new people and to learn new things.We're not even close ourselves! Let's go for it!I think I have also received many opportunities to be inspired.

Increased motivation to work

My husband said, "Maintain the cars I have at home now, and buy the car I want.is a great motivator in my work.(although they don't have many cars they want these days, and they're reducing the number of cars they currently have)

And I, too.Buy your own Porsche with your own money.I am taking steps toward this goal. Basically, I don't have much of a desire for things, and my husband has given me

Why do you have such a dirty little thing? Why don't you buy one?"

It is often said that we use our clothes, bags, shoes, etc. until they are torn and tattered.(Shabby...)The following is a list of the most common problems with the "C" in the "C" column.

I am such a person, but when it comes to my Porsche, I want one.

."If you are in a situation where you can drive a Porsche now, why dare you still want one?It may sound like "I want to get a Porsche," but I would definitely like to get one by myself in the future, because I think the joy, excitement, and feeling of driving a Porsche that my husband bought and that I got with my own money are completely different.

Well, it's still going to take some time... (-_-)

I had thought for a long time that I did not need a car, but I never thought that buying a Porsche would become my goal.
