The story of letting go of Porsche 981 Boxster Cayman and regretting

981 Boxster/Cayman

Last year, I decided to start something new.youtube channelThe company opened a

In the past, I have introduced the sound of a car's engine and driving conditions, but it is difficult to update casually because it is very time consuming to photograph and record, and editing is also quite time-consuming, so I have not updated this page at all recently.

Nevertheless, it seems that people are watching our videos on a regular basis, and we often receive comments on our videos. The other day, I received this comment on a video of the Boxster GTS engine sound.

'TheI truly regret giving up my 981.... Because Porsche will never make a car with this sound again (EU environmental regulations).'-' (used in place of '-')

I told my husband that I had received these comments

I guess that's true... I too have been on Twitter for some time now.I regret giving up my 981 Cayman and Boxster.or ".I can't let this goI've seen a number of tweets that say, "I'm not sure how many people are thinking that way," so maybe there are a lot of people out there who are thinking that way.

 and then found the actual Tweet and showed it to me (below are some of those who are not under lock and key).

I see...!

I certainly love the sound of the engine in my 981 Boxster GTS. It's not a pure mechanical sound, but it's staged," and there are pros and cons, but it's very pleasant and I like it.

I was so thrilled that I had previously been asked to write a letter to the "If you sell this, I will buy it back from you on the spot and I will never let it go from my home!My husband once laughed at me when I said, "I'm sorry, I don't know what to say. But that's how great a car it is.

And now my husband is.

I will never sell my Boxster GTS. It's a real classic, and the sound of the engine is amazing. I don't think there are many cars that give me such a high level of happiness when I drive them.

He said, "Last year, I realized that even though the loan was paid off long ago, I had not put the name of the loan in my name, so the loan company changed the name to my name and said, "This clears things up...I was deeply moved," he said.

Why I didn't let go of my 981 Boxster GTS

My husband looks at CarSensor every day to gather a lot of information about cars that interest him and that he wants in the future, and this is what he said about the 981 Boxster GTS.

There were quite a few 981 Boxster Caymans in good condition on the used car market until 2020 or so, but lately it's really dwindled down. At this point, there are even fewer of them than the 981 Spyder.
After the 718 was released a short time later, more and more people replaced it with the higher-performance 718, but "As for the engine noise, I liked the 981.I wonder if this is the situation we are in now, because many people started to say, "I'll buy a 981," and from there, more and more people started to buy 981s.
Also, mine is.Left-hand drive MTIf we give it away now, we may never get another one in good condition.
In fact, one of my acquaintances has asked Porsche dealers nationwide about used 981GTS cars, and they say there really aren't any. Even if they do, there are so many people waiting for them that they are sold before they appear on used car websites.
At the time I bought it, it didn't get that much attention and could be purchased normally, but I never thought it would become so popular now.

And.

My wife and I love our 981 Boxster GTS, but for a while, we were "in the mood" to buy a 981 Boxster GTS.I may not need a Boxster.There was a time when I thought, "I'm not going to be able to do that. It was.911GT3 (991 type) was deliveredsometimes911 Cabriolet (992 type) was delivered.It is time.

The performance of the 911GT3 is tremendous, and the handling of the car is far above that of a regular 911, making it a true racing car.

I knew the GT3 was awesome! This performance is out of a league of its own. This stimulation is addictive!I've been driving a GT3 for a long time now, so when I drive a Boxster for the first time in a while, I kind of feel like I'm missing out...I wonder if the Boxster is no longer needed.

and so on.

Also, later, when the 911 Cabriolet was delivered, the performance of the latest Porsche was truly amazing, and because it was a Cabriolet, the roof was open, and when I drove the Boxster afterwards, I found that "I'm not as impressed with the Boxster as I used to be, because the 992 is so much better in performance and the roof opens up.I thought, "I'm not going to be able to do that.

However, about six months later, the couple began to have a change of heart.

The Boxster's supple suspension is now more appealing than the GT3 and 911, which had a more solid suspension, and the Boxster's corner handling is different from the 911, which turns sharply, but turns smoothly, lightly, and rhythmically. The Boxster's driving is very pleasing to me.

The sound of the engine can be heard even at low speeds, the comfort and ease of driving in town, the fun that only a manual transmission can provide, and the wonderful feeling of being in an extraordinary environment when the roof is open, even in the city....

I have come to realize anew the appeal of the Boxster, which is fun in any situation. Therefore, my husband is

I'm glad I didn't go too fast then. When I test drive new Porsches and such, they are so far above what I own now in terms of performance that I think, "I don't think I need my current car anymore.But I think it's important to wait for six months or so and not rush to sell.
After six months, I can discover new charms again, and sometimes I'm glad I didn't sell it at that time.

He said.

The famous 981 Boxster GTS. when I used to drive my MT car every day, I could drive my MT Boxster as well as I wanted, but nowadays I rarely drive MT cars, and when I drive a Boxster, I think, "I'm not a very good driver.I often think, "I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.

I hope that my MT car will be delivered soon (they are still waiting for the production of the MT car due to lack of parts), and I will be able to drive the Boxster GTS every day and practice again so that I can enjoy the thrill of driving it as if it were my own hand and foot.
