Can I Achieve My Goal of “Buying a Porsche with My Own Money”?

I Want to Buy a Porsche Myself Since around this summer, I’ve started a new challenge. An entrepreneur I know asked me, “Could you take on something like this?” and I jumped at the chance. Just like when I started this blog from scratch, this project is about creating something from zero and growing it. I didn’t know if it would succeed, and with parenting and blogging already keeping me busy, I knew it would...

Experienced the “Mid vs Rear” Program at PEC Tokyo: Mid-Engine vs Rear-Engine

PEC Tokyo: Starting Out in the Boxster GTS 4.0 The other day, I visited the Porsche Experience Center Tokyo (PEC Tokyo), and today I want to share my impressions of the “two-car comparison” program I experienced there. The program I joined was the 90-minute “Mid vs Rear,” which thoroughly explores the differences between mid-engine and rear-engine Porsches. The first car I got to drive was the Boxster GTS 4.0. I had expected to drive a...

Porsche Experience Center (PEC) Tokyo Report | Three Key Attractions I Discovered Firsthand

Visiting Porsche Experience Center Tokyo Last week, I visited the Porsche Experience Center Tokyo (PEC Tokyo), which opened in October in Kisarazu, Chiba Prefecture. The Porsche Experience Center is a Porsche brand facility with the concept of being a place to “unleash the true performance hidden within Porsche and maximize your instincts as a driver.” Actually, when my family traveled to Los Angeles before, we stopped by the Porsche Experience Center LA. Although we didn’t...

How My Wife Feels Riding Shotgun in a Sports Car | Grateful When My Husband Gets Better a...

There’s a Proper Form to Driving Sports Cars My husband often says this: Driving a sports car is just like playing a sport. In sports like tennis, golf, or baseball, there’s a fundamental form everyone learns first. People practice it repeatedly until it becomes second nature and they improve. But when it comes to driving sports cars, many people just wing it without learning the basics, right? Especially the driving position—so many people have it...

Why My Husband’s Income Rose and We Could Afford a Porsche | The Crucial Role of a Wife’s...

Our Wedding Anniversary My husband and I are pretty bad at remembering anniversaries and events. Also, neither of us is very materialistic, so when I ask him, “What do you want for your birthday?” he usually says, “I don’t really want anything.” So every year, I just give him a Porsche T-shirt. And when he asks me, “What do you want for your birthday?” I reply, “Hmm, I don’t really want anything, so I’m good,”...

Which Porsche Offers a Comfortable Ride and Fun Driving for Both Driver and Passengers?

A Porsche with a Comfortable Ride and Great Driving Performance The other day, I received this question on my blog. My current car is a late-model 991 GT3, but I’m a bit tired of the intense sports driving. Also, my family often complains that the ride in the GT3 is too stiff, so I’m looking for a sporty Porsche that’s comfortable enough for daily use and long trips. Ideally, something like the 968 I used...

Will Environmental and Noise Regulations Make It Impossible to Buy Gasoline Sports Cars?!

Engine Sound of the Porsche 911 (992 Model) I’ve been seeing more and more news about stricter fuel efficiency and exhaust emission regulations for cars. That said, I used to think, “It seems this trend is spreading in Europe, but it might be quite a while before it affects Japan.” However, it turns out we can no longer afford to be so relaxed—these impacts are already starting to affect us. Recently, I received a question...

What Every Porsche Driver Who Loves Driving Always Checks Before a Touring Trip

My Husband’s Porsche Touring My husband, who is well-known to love cars and driving, always does one thing before going on a touring trip. That is to thoroughly research the route beforehand. While route research before a tour might sound obvious, my husband’s preparation is exceptionally detailed. This is because it’s not just about getting to the destination quickly, but about choosing the best roads where he can enjoy driving his Porsche to the fullest....
