The other day, I was talking to someone I know who said, "I write a Porsche blog and recently bought my first Porsche, the one I've always wanted.The conversation turned to "What is the best way to do it?
And in doing so, the "I bought it without a test drive.They were very surprised about the fact that "the
What?"Normally, if you're buying a car, don't you take it for a test drive before you buy it?And Porsche is a very expensive car, but you don't buy it after test-driving it? A Porsche is so expensive that you could buy a house if it were an expensive model..."
And.
Indeed...
The Porsche I recently purchased was a Carrera T, a so-called low production model. As expected, there were no Carrera T test drives available, and I was not able to test drive it, and in the case of a car with a small production quota, it is called aWhat to do, buy or not to buy...While we are struggling with the "how to buy a car," the reservation right may be given to someone else, so we need to make a bold decision, which is quite different from the usual way of buying a car.
Although, certainly when I was still not interested in cars at all and didn't know much about Porsche,I buy expensive cars without even test driving them."I was very surprised to learn that there were people
If you buy and "This is not what I expected...What will we do when it comes to "what if"? It's too late to regret it, but I wonder if it's still okay.... (Well, I wonder if they have so much extra money...)
So I could not understand the idea at all.
But now, little by little, I think I understand the mindset of those who buy a Porsche without test-driving it.
The state of mind is.I absolutely trust Porsche.The "I" in "I" means "I" in Japanese.
."The newest Porsche is the best Porsche.As the famous saying goes, Porsche always exceeds the owner's expectations (in terms of performance), and in terms of driving performance, I think it stands out from other cars. (Although the interior is not as spectacular...).
I have experienced such things in my past Porsche purchases, so even if there is no test-drive of the very model I am planning to buy, I may buy it without any hesitation.
But on the other hand, I also think this. There may not be that many people who are that particular about the way they drive."And.
My husband is more of a driving enthusiast than a car enthusiast, so every time he gets in a loaner car, etc.This is a suspension...or "The handling is...Or, even though the video isn't even going around, he talks about it like it's a car youtube channel (laughs).
As I watched my husband, who had never been interested in cars in the first place, I thought to myself, "I'm not interested in cars.He's like a car enthusiast = husband.I had thought that my husband was a car geek (driving geek), but recently I began to realize that his car geekiness (driving geek) is a bit out of the ordinary....
So, normally, people don't seek such detailed driving performance, so even if Porsche is an expensive car, they may buy it without test-driving it (I think many people would rather buy it as an ornamental car).
However, thinking about it calmly...even if I couldn't test drive the car, I would still want information about it.
How does it ride, how does it drive, how does the engine sound, how does the engine feel, how does it handle, and do these meet my requirements for a car...?
Reviews that are candid and without any discernment are still very helpful, and the more such information, the better.
In that sense, I would like this blog to continue to be as useful as possible to readers who are considering purchasing a Porsche, even though they cannot test-drive it, and to provide information that they would like to know.
