Five years as a Porsche owner - What has changed and what has not

My Family's Car Life

I've owned a Porsche for 5 years.

for the first timeMy husband's first Porsche, a Boxster GTS, arrived at our home in November 2015.It was about the

Porsche Boxster GTS

At the time, I had no interest in cars, but I had heard of Porsche as a quintessential name.

However, the "Porsche is a car of the cloud world, something for celebrities to buy.I had an image of "luxury" in my mind, so when my husband said he was going to buy it, I did not feel it at all. At that time, we were not interested in fashion, gourmet food, or brand-name goods, and we were not interested in luxury items.

Although, "People who drive luxury sports cars are getting more and more fancy in their lives.I had a selfish prejudice that "if we own a Porsche, our lives will change, too..." I wondered idly.

Five years have passed since then. My husband has purchased several Porsches and I have been allowed to drive them on a daily basis, and I decided to write a little about what has changed and what has not.

With and without Porsche

First of all, "theWhat has not changedRegarding.Our family's lifestyle has not changed at all from five years ago.Back then we had one child, but now we have three children, and things have changed in that sense.

However.As usual, the couple's clothes are mostly UNIQLO, and the children's clothes are from Nishimatsuya.I eat out at Conveyor belt sushi, Gusto, Jolly Pasta, and McDonalds. Eating out is either conveyor belt sushi, Gusto, Jolly Pasta, or McDonald's, and I go to a hundred different places frequently.(I've been going there every week lately.)The house I live in is the same, and the supermarket I frequent is the same.

I mean, I'm surprised that you haven't changed...in fact, you could change a little more (laughs).

Our lifestyle hasn't changed partly because we are the type of people who don't put much emphasis on food, clothing, and shelter, but also because we are the type of people who "don't put much emphasis on food, clothing, and shelter.Porsche is a sports car that can be used in everyday life without a problem.It seems to me that the element of "I'm not sure I can do it" is also a big factor.

."Race on Sunday, drive on MondayAs they say, "a Porsche can be used for a wide range of purposes, from driving on the track to shopping at the supermarket.

We had a Panamera at home for a long time, so it was certainly a Porsche that was easier to use on a daily basis than a two-door or two-seater, but even so, we sometimes went shopping at the supermarket in a 911 or Boxster, and since the car is not that low and can carry quite a bit of luggage, there was no particular place we could not go.

I think that in the case of supercars, there will be quite a few places you won't be able to go due to the glamorous appearance and the height of the car.Porsche was not much different from our lifestyle in that we could use it in our daily lives without any problems.I wonder if this is the case.

Changes brought about by Porsche

On the other hand, "What's changedwas that he was even more motivated to work. Her husband was, at the time

I decided to buy a Porsche and have been working hard, but even though I bought a Porsche, I am so busy with work that I don't have time to drive it now.
I love to drive, so I want to spend as much time as possible in my favorite Porsche, and I want to go driving on various roads. That's whyI will focus on creating a system so that the company can run without problems even without me.
On top of that, I earn so hard anyway that I have no problem owning more than one Porsche!

and worked hard to get there andIn the last year or so, I've been in a situation where I have a lot more free time.It seems. If I hadn't bought the Porsche, it might not have turned out this way, or if it did, it might have taken longer.

And I, by chance, started this Porsche blog, and gradually became a "Porsche Blogger".Buy a Porsche with your own money.That's the goal, and we're on our way there step by step.Lately, I've been carrying my son in my arms, standing and swaying, and blogging at the computer.and(And that's exactly what I'm doing right now.)Even after giving birth to my third child, I am still driven from the depths of my heart by the existence of Porsche.

And there is one more thing that has changed before and after owning a Porsche. I think this is the biggest change.The people I meet have changed.That's what I mean. My husband has been going to the Ashiu Driveway lookout every week for several years and(He chose his current home location partly because he wanted to visit Ashiu easily)I have interacted with Porsche drivers and car enthusiasts there, and it seems that I meet many wonderful people every time.

My husband is a man who, by nature, rarely goes out to dinner with anyone.(He has dinner at home every night), ,I went out to dinner with car friends, was invited to go touring, went to the circuit, showed my garage, and was allowed to ride in a famous car.I have had a lot of experiences with them.

He says that 90% of his conversations with everyone are about cars, but he also talks about life and work in between.I'm learning so much!He often says, "I'm not sure I'm going to be able to do that.

Many of these people I would never have met if it had been business-related, so I am glad that we have been able to expand our relationship so much through Porsche, as I watched from the sidelines.

And as I listened to their stories, my values changed a little. I used to be a workaholic, running around the clock with work as the only thing on my mind, but now I think it is wonderful to live a rich life while enjoying hobbies and family time.(Maybe he's burned out from too long of a period of gung-ho running w)

As for the blog, I would like to consider various developments in the future, and I would like to grow old together with my loved ones, freely, unrestrictedly, excitedly, and always with the curiosity of a child.

They say that meeting people changes your life, and I truly believe that to be true.

I am sure that the day I buy a Porsche with my own money, I will be able to see a different world, and I will continue to walk hard, one step at a time.

    Nice to meet you.
    When I went to Ashiyu after taking delivery of my dream Macan s the other day, many people (including the owner) conversed with me favorably, and I felt a marked difference from when I was driving a BMW. At the same time, I was made aware that I still have a long way to go and my motivation has increased.
    I am now struggling daily to reach my next goal, but I couldn't help but comment on the enthusiasm that would not appear unless I bought a Porsche.

      Thank you for your comment!
      The other day my husband wandered over to Ashiu.
      Is this the person you have met?

      Many of the people who come to Ashiu are really friendly and warm.
      My husband is quite often in Ashiyari on warm days when the weather is nice and warm, so please let us know if you see him again.
      I will try my best to buy a Porsche for myself soon ^_^.
      Thank you for your continued support!

    Nice to meet you, I always enjoy looking at your site. I too am a Porsche enthusiast, but my career is new: I bought a used 997 and sold it after 2 years, and bought a used Macan Turbo and sold it after 3 years. Now I am waiting for delivery of a new Cayenne GTS. I went to Ashiu 3 times with my second car, Mazda Roadster RF, but no Porsche or super car appeared because it was Wednesday afternoon. I would like to go there regularly when the road condition improves. I really enjoy your blog and I hope it will continue forever. Please keep up the good work.

      Thank you for visiting my blog!

      >Currently we are awaiting delivery of a new Cayenne GTS.
      Oh yes!!! Cayenne GTS!!! That's amazing!!!

      There are no cars at all in Ashiari during the daytime on weekdays.
      I still wonder if it's concentrated on Sunday mornings.
      My husband wanders to Ashiari several times a week, so we may meet soon ^^.

      I would like to continue blogging at my own pace.
      Thank you for your continued support!
