The 964 Carrera 2 Has Arrived Last Friday, our long-awaited air-cooled Porsche (964 Carrera 2) finally arrived at our home. I plan to share a detailed review of its specifications and driving impressions here on the blog soon. Actually, with the arrival of this air-cooled Porsche, we decided to part ways with the Mercedes-Benz SL500 (R129) that had been with us until now. So, this time I’d like to share my husband’s impressions after owning...
To Nakabayashi Kogyo Previously, at Nakabayashi Kogyo, a long-established manufacturer of automotive body covers, I arranged to have a body cover made for my Panamera. At Nakabayashi Kogyo, if a body cover pattern doesn’t yet exist for your car model, you can bring in the actual vehicle, and after measuring and pattern making, they will gift you the finished cover free of charge.(Some models are excluded) Luckily, my 971 Panamera Turbo didn’t have a pattern...
Finally, I got to drive the GT3 At the recent “Sunday Morning Gathering at Royu“, my husband was ecstatic after test driving the Porsche 911 GT3 (991.1). A few days later, I asked my husband for his impressions of the GT3 once he had calmed down, so today I’d like to share his thoughts. GT3 Test Drive Review ① Getting Started Before driving it, I had the image that cars made for the track tend...
What Day is October 12th? Last year on October 12th, a Panamera Turbo arrived at our home. Has it only been one year? It feels like it’s been about three. Here’s the mileage and other details: 〘One Year Review〙 ・Mileage: 13,749 km ・Oil top-up: once ・Oil changes: three times (initial inspection, at 6,500 km, and one-year inspection) ・Flat tire: once (minor puncture fixed during the one-year inspection, so no tire replacement) ・Breakdowns: No major issues,...
The Open Two-Seater’s Trunk “I’ve heard many people say that the Boxster’s trunk can’t hold much luggage,” and since (I used to think so too), I decided to put that to the test. Because the Boxster features a “mid-engine layout with the engine placed in the middle of the chassis,” it has trunks both in the front and rear. To open the trunk, you either pull this lever under the driver’s seat, or press the...
One Day, a Call from the BMW Dealer The other day, my husband received a call from the BMW dealer. They said, “The previous sales representative has left, and the new one would like to introduce themselves and invite you for a test drive at the dealership.” Well, we haven’t even bought a single car from the previous rep… lol My husband asked me, “Why don’t you come along?” but unfortunately, our youngest daughter had...
Test Driving the New Cayenne The other day, I finally got to test drive the new Cayenne. I wasn’t particularly planning to buy one (sorry, Mr. H at the dealer…), but the reviews in motor magazines were good, and having previously learned in detail how the new Cayenne is made on the Discovery Channel, I was curious. ポルシェ 新型カイエン、工場の製造工程を総力取材!(したTV番組をまとめてみた) However, I thought, “Even though it’s made by a sports car manufacturer, it’s still an SUV,...
My Brother-in-Law’s Macan Turbo Previously, I wrote an article about test driving my brother-in-law’s Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo, but before that, he drove a Macan Turbo. I borrowed that Macan Turbo for just one day back then, and “even as a compact SUV, it truly felt like a Porsche!” So, I want to jot down a review based on my husband’s impressions before I forget. 2015 Model Macan Turbo My brother-in-law’s Macan Turbo is a...
