9 months from the delivery of Swiss Po

My car,The Swift Sport was delivered in October 2021.It's fast, and it's been nine months since then.

The parts that have been modified after delivery areHaving installed a lowdown springandI replaced the room lamp with an LEDAbout that.

I've been riding Suissepo almost every day for the past nine months, but the mileage hasn't increased much, partly because I mainly go to supermarkets and kindergartens in the neighborhood.

At the moment, it is about 4000km.

Suzuki Swiss Po

In my house, there are several Porsche of my husband besides Swiss Po, and I think that I know the wonderful performance, and my husband also said, "I wish I could ride more PorscheHowever, I always get on the Swiss Po.

Swiss Po is overwhelmingly easy to use

The reason why I want to ride Swiss Po is "Both overwhelming ease of everyday use and enjoyment of driving"It is in. (Of course, of course w)

Today I would like to write a little more about this area.

A feeling of compact size

Swisspo is very compact, with a total width of only 1735mm. It looks bigger than the air-cooled Porsche 911 (964),

Swisspo and air-cooled Porsche 911 (964)

It's quite rare to see a picture of these two cars side by side.

It's small compared to the size of a typical car, and you can go anywhere, whether it's a narrow road or any parking lot.

For me, who often rides in the city, this "A feeling of compact sizeIs a very important point.

A feeling of power that can be handled

This Swiss Po isEquipped with a 1.4L direct injection turbo engine, it has 140 horsepower.Looking at the numbers alone, it seems a little unsatisfactory, but when I actually ride it, I don't feel any lack of power.

The weight of the Swiss Po is less than 1 ton (my Swiss Po is 970kg in MT), it is very light, and the acceleration at the start is torqueful, light and relaxed, and it feels very good.

I don't feel any stress even in situations where there are many stop-and-go situations.

As might be expected,"Do you want to drive about 500km from your home to Fuji Speedway for a long time?I think it's a little painful (there is no problem in terms of performance, but it seems to be tiring in terms of wind noise, speed, road noise, etc.), but after driving on the highway for 2 to 3 hours. If there is, there is no problem at all.

I'm attached to it because it's a new car that I'm particular about

I bought this Swiss Po with a new car.

Originally I had no intention of buying a new car and thought about it as a used car, but "Changing tires or doing something is not much different from buying a new carI came to the conclusion that I bought it with a new car.

The exterior is a two-tone color with a black roof and a red body.

While consulting with my husband, I was very happy because I was particular about myself, such as putting decals on the bonnet and sides and making it emblemless.

As soon as I found Suissepo, when I came home after shopping at the supermarket parking lot,A cute buddy is waiting for you!I feel the indescribable joy.

This was my first time to buy a new car, but if possible, I would like to stick to the new car and buy it.

Ride quality is quite good

I think the ride quality is quite good. However, the comfort of riding is difficult because each person feels differently ... "Ride quality is uncomfortableI think there are few people who say.

I like it because it has a compact and lightweight body, but it has a feeling of ground contact, and it runs stably without fluffy shaking.

In the case of Porsche "It is smooth when driving on winding roads and highways at a certain speed, but the ride quality at low speeds is not very good.However, in the case of Swiss Po, it is very easy to use because you do not feel stress in the ride quality at the usual low speed.

MT is fun

After all MT car is fun. The Swisspo clutch is shallow and light, and the shift lever is easy to operate, so you don't have to worry about starting.Easy blipping when downshiftingSo it's fun just to slow down and stop at each red light (laughs)

There is no auto-hold function when starting on a slope, but if you get a feel for it, there is no problem at all.

The feeling of manipulating this moderately powerful car with my own hands is so much fun that I end up riding a Swiss Po rather than a Porsche w

What i want from a car

I have noticed it again since I bought Swiss Po.

that is,"What I want from a car is ease of use and fun of driving.That is to say.

I don't go touring at all and I rarely drive on the highway. So you don't need tremendous horsepower or power, and you don't need surprising handling.

Also, since it is difficult to use a large car, it is better to have a car that is a little smaller and has a size that allows you to go anywhere without worrying about it. And since I often travel with three children, I want them to seat at least four people.

At first also about Porsche 911"GTS is cool!" "I want to ride a turbo! I like those wings and wide body!"I had a longing for it, but now I say "It ’s more than enough for me, and it ’s the best match for me.I landed at the place.

The journey to choose a car that suits me will continue forever, but I hope that I can enjoy my car life even more through that journey.

    Hi, I always enjoy reading your blog!

    > The feeling of manipulating it in your own hands is so much fun
    I also ride a lightweight, low-power roadster, so I know this feeling very well.

    Lightweight, low-power cars like the Swisspo and Roadster will nurture drivers
    There is a good point

    If you usually practice at Swisspo (?) And enjoy Porsche from time to time, it seems that you can enjoy each goodness more strongly lol

      Thank you for visiting our blog!
      You're riding a roadster! ^^

      > If you usually train at Swisspo (?) And enjoy Porsche from time to time, it seems that you can enjoy each goodness more strongly lol
      Certainly, when I first got on Swisspo, I thought, "I'm not good at driving."
      I would like to be able to train with Swisspo and be able to drive to bring out the goodness of Porsche (laughs)
      Thank you for your continued support!

    I always enjoy looking at your site.
    I also bought a twingo as my second car in October last year. It's even lower power than the Swisspo, but it's enough for city riding, and it's easy to handle, so it's useful.
    The name is Alfa Romeo, so I use it when I use my arm at high speed, but I enjoy the goodness of each.

    Swisspo's color, red and black line is pretty cool.
    There is an event called the Red Festival in Hikone in August, and only red cars gather. If you are interested, would you like to join us?

      Thank you for visiting our blog!
      twingo is so cute and fashionable!

      There are still many attractive cars that I do not know,
      There are days when I want to ride more cars.

      We have an event in August!
      In August, things like the schedules of the children are so busy that it's a bit difficult...
      In addition, I think that I can see the twitter of those who participated ^ ^

      Thank you!

    Hello. - Hello.

    It's best to be able to "enjoy" riding in your own car without hesitation.
    I can't help but enjoy Cayman-chan.

    With a manual car, every time you do something,
    Look there, look there, predict, and
    If you can run smoothly, you will be satisfied with "Oh, you did it, me!"

    Heck, z...
    ( ̄ー ̄) grinning

    It seems that the disease of car lovers can not be cured (lol)

      Thank you!
      As you say, it's best to have fun and ride without hesitation ^ ^
      Cayman life, how you are enjoying it has been transmitted!

      When everything fits together well, I'm so happy that I can't help but grin (laughs)!

      I have a lot of people who like cars around me,
      I didn't like cars, I thought that I was an ordinary person, but I might be in the category of car lovers.
      I've been thinking lately (laughs).
