Recently, I published the first part of my test drive report on the Cayenne Coupe, and now, at last, I’d like to share my husband’s impressions (Part 2) that you’ve been waiting for. On a rare sunny break during the rainy season, we were fortunate to have the chance to test drive the new Cayenne Coupe.

What I Learned About the Porsche 911 GT3’s Charms After One Year of Ownership

Once Again, the Porsche 911 GT3 Lately, I’ve been driving the GT3 about once a month, and each time I get behind the wheel, I’m struck by the feeling of “Yes, this is it!” and a fresh wave of amazement thinking, “So this is another side of its charm!” It really makes me realize how profoundly deep Porsche is as a brand, and how truly special the GT3 is as a car. The other day,...

Test Drive of the Porsche Cayenne Coupe (Part 1)｜How’s the Ride and Usability?

Porsche Cayenne Coupe The other day, I had the chance to test drive the Cayenne Coupe. Now that June has arrived and the kids have started elementary school and kindergarten, I finally have some free time in the mornings.

Car Seats Matter Not Only for Comfort but Also for Safety

Panamera Seats The other day, while riding in the Panamera, my husband said, The Panamera is an amazing car, but I just can’t get comfortable with this 14-way memory electric seat no matter what… He’s often mentioned that the Panamera’s seats just don’t quite fit him. Until now, I’d always said, “Really? I find them perfectly comfortable.” But recently, when I got to drive the Panamera GTS with its 18-way electric adaptive sport seats, I...

How Ride Comfort Changes Dramatically with Tire Pressure, Wheels, and Tires

Ride Comfort of the Panamera The other day, I took our Panamera out for a drive after a while. Since I had recently test-driven the Panamera GTS, compared to that, the Panamera GTS felt more comfortable to ride than the Panamera Turbo. The ride comfort of the Panamera GTS reminded me of the smoothness of the current Cayenne… it felt so light and smooth, it was hard to believe it had the same V8 engine,...

How Does the Porsche Panamera GTS (971) Differ from the Turbo?

The other day, I wrote my impressions after test driving the Panamera GTS, and now I’d like to share my husband’s thoughts. The Meaning Behind the “GTS” Badge I was personally very curious and fortunate to have the chance to test drive the 971 Panamera GTS.

971 Panamera GTS The other day, I had the opportunity to test drive the Panamera GTS (971).

Porsche Panamera｜Reflections After 4 Years of Ownership

Car Life at Seven Months Pregnant Time flies—I’m already seven months pregnant, and my belly has grown quite large. Recently, I’ve really noticed how much my thought process has changed compared to before pregnancy. The human body is truly a fascinating thing. I’ve always been the type to enjoy new challenges and adventures, but now, those feelings have mostly faded. It feels like all the male hormones inside me have completely vanished, replaced entirely by...
