The Ideal Specs for Buying the New 911 GT3 Touring Package! Should You Get PCCB? What Abo...

Until this spring, my husband owned a 911 GT3 Touring (991 late model). He was very particular about options and specs and agonized over selling it for months, but finally decided to let it go this spring. Recently, he said, “If I were to buy the new 911 GT3 Touring Package (992 model), this is how I’d spec it out,” and showed me his configuration. So, this is purely his personal preference and just for...

The Air-Cooled Porsche 911 (964) Is Simply Wonderful My husband has always said, when driving the 992 911, “The 992 really is great~,” and when behind the wheel of the air-cooled 964 Porsche 911, “The 964 really is something else~.” But lately, his words have started to change a bit. Recently, he’s been saying, “The 964 is definitely better! If I had to keep only one, either the 992 or the 964, I’d choose the...

Test Drive of the New Porsche 911 Targa (992): The Most Luxurious Way to Enjoy a 911

The other day, I happened to have the opportunity to experience the new Porsche 911 Targa 4 (992 model), so I’d like to share my report. Porsche 911 Targa 4 (992) This time, I test drove the latest 992-generation Targa 4. It goes without saying, but the Targa is neither a cabriolet nor a coupe. The Targa bar, which corresponds to the B-pillar, is located in the center of the body, enhancing rigidity and providing...

Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) Is an Absolute Must for Safety

Porsche’s Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) Most Porsches from the last decade come equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM). While it used to be an optional feature, it has gradually become standard equipment, and now every model includes it. The TPM displays tire pressure in real time while driving and alerts you if the pressure drops beyond a certain point. What’s great about Porsche’s TPM is that it tells you exactly how much air to...

Maintenance Costs for Air-Cooled Porsches: About 2.12 Million Yen Over 3 Years!

The Soaring Prices of Air-Cooled Porsches Recently, the prices of air-cooled Porsches have been climbing relentlessly. While used prices for domestic sports cars have also generally increased, the rate of increase for air-cooled Porsches is truly remarkable. Nowadays, even those in decent condition mostly come with price tags marked as ‘Negotiable’ or ‘ASK.’ Even for cars with listed prices, if they have under 100,000 km and are close to original condition, a 964 Tiptronic can...

What’s the Difference Between the Porsche 911 Cabriolet and Boxster?

Comparing the 991.1 Carrera S Cabriolet and the 981 Boxster GTS If you’ve ever considered buying a Porsche convertible, you’ve probably asked yourself this question at least once: “What’s the difference between the 911 Cabriolet and the Boxster?” I used to wonder about this a lot myself. I understand the difference between a 4-seater and a 2-seater, and I get the difference between RR and MR layouts. But how do they differ in terms of...

Touring in the Porsche 911 (992)! Cruising Okayama’s Wide-Area Farm Roads!

Heading to Okayama’s Wide-Area Farm Roads It’s been almost a year since I bought the 992, but surprisingly, I haven’t really gone on a proper solo touring trip yet. I’ve gone to Fuji Speedway with my family and joined group tours with Porsche friends, so most of my drives have involved multiple people. I haven’t really done much solo touring. This time, I finally took out the 992 to join the Hiruzen MT (Meeting) held...

Replacing the Rear Spoiler Wall (Bellows) on a Porsche 911 (Air-Cooled 964)

The hot days continue, but I’m still frequently driving my 964. Since it has Tiptronic, it’s easy to drive both around town and for commuting, making it arguably the best air-cooled Porsche for everyday use. One day, I casually lifted the rear spoiler to take a look and found that the plastic bellows (accordion-style) part had deteriorated and developed holes. While it doesn’t directly affect driving performance, it looks bad from behind and isn’t ideal...
