Driving to Fuji Speedway in the Cayenne The other day, I wrote an article about my husband participating in a track day hosted by the magazine “911DAYS” and driving the 992 in wet mode. As for me, I followed along in the Cayenne E-Hybrid, driving nearly 1,000 km round trip from home to Fuji Speedway (including transfers to the hotel, etc.). Most of the journey was on the highway, but it was my first time...
Porsche 911 @ Fuji Speedway The other day, a circuit driving event hosted by the magazine “911DAYS” was held at Fuji Speedway, and my husband participated in his 911 Cabriolet (992 model). When he signed up for the event, he said, Which car should I take to the next event…? I’ve never driven a GT3 at Fuji Speedway, so maybe I’ll go with the GT3… However, since I, the “Rainstorm, Typhoon, Fog, and Snow Woman”,...
My husband had the rare opportunity to test drive a Porsche 356 and wrote a report about it. Please take a look if you’re interested. Porsche 356: The First Model to Bear the Porsche Name Porsche was founded in 1931. Its official name is Dr.Ing.h.c.F.Porsche AG, which in Japanese translates to “Ferdinand Porsche Honorary Doctor of Engineering Corporation.” The first car to carry the “Porsche” name was the Porsche 356, produced starting in 1948. The...
My husband is a well-known car enthusiast, and his younger brother shares the same passion. Their tastes in cars are completely different, and their replacement cycles vary greatly, but over the years, my husband has had the chance to test drive his brother’s Toyota Alphard, Ferrari GTC4 Lusso T, Mercedes AMG G63, Ferrari 488 Spider, Porsche Macan Turbo, and Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo. Now, with his brother having purchased yet another car, my husband got...
Back When I Frequently Scratched My Cars The other day on my blog, Which is easier to drive, the Porsche Cayenne or Panamera? I received a comment asking Mina, who has driven both, to share her perspective as a woman. The commenter’s wife currently drives a Panamera, but because of its large size, she sometimes ends up scratching it. I, too, used to frequently scratch or bump the Audi A3 we had at home before....
The Joy of Driving the Cayenne The other day, I was driving our Cayenne E-Hybrid and found myself thinking again, “Why is driving the Cayenne so much fun?” Then I asked my husband sitting in the passenger seat. Why is driving the Cayenne so enjoyable? I get that the Boxster and 911 are thrilling with their engine sounds, especially with a manual transmission where you really feel like you’re driving. But the Cayenne feels easy,...
911 Turbo Cabriolet The other day, I received this comment from a blog reader. Having previously driven a Macan Turbo, they fell in love with the charm of the 911 after test-driving the 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet (992 model), and ended up purchasing the 911 Turbo Cabriolet (992 model). They were amazed by the significant differences between the Carrera 4S Cabriolet they test-drove and the Turbo Cabriolet, so I’d like to share a bit about...
My husband recently had the chance to test drive a friend’s Porsche 911 Turbo S (992), and he wrote a report about it. Please take a look if you’re interested. Porsche 911 Turbo S (992) The Porsche 911’s flagship grade, the “Turbo,” has reigned at the top since the 930 generation, standing apart from the standard trims. The model we had the opportunity to test drive this time is the latest 911, the 992 Turbo...
Porsche 911 Carrera or Carrera S Today, I want to share a question we received on the blog earlier, along with my husband’s response. Currently planning to purchase a 992, but I’m torn between the Carrera and the Carrera S. I’m switching from a Macan GTS and don’t own any other Porsche models. The blog highly praises the base Carrera, but could you explain a bit more about the differences between the Carrera and Carrera...
