The Ultimate Leather Seat Cleaner: “Easy Wipe”

Previously, while touring with my younger brother in a 911 Dakar, he mentioned an unbeatable leather seat cleaner. My brother isn’t the type to wash or maintain his car actively, but he was unusually enthusiastic about this cleaner, saying he’s bought several bottles over the years. He kept insisting, “You absolutely have to get this too!” So, I decided to give it a try and will share my review here. Leather Cleaner “Easy Wipe” The...

A Car Is More Than Just Transportation — It’s a Partner. Where Does That Feeling Come From?

The Feeling of Partnership with My Beloved Car My husband has often said, “a car isn’t just a means of transportation or an industrial product—it’s a partner.” I once wrote an article titled “It’s not that we go touring with a Porsche; we go touring with the Porsche,” 『ポルシェでツーリングに行く』のではない、『ポルシェとツーリングに行く』のだという件 in which he said, I’ve driven many cars before, but I don’t think any car talks to me as much as a Porsche does while I’m...

How to Drive a Porsche 911 (964) Tiptronic

964 Tiptronic Recently, the prices of used 964 models have been rising relentlessly. Just recently, it became a hot topic that even the 964 Tiptronic (Tip) surpassed 10 million yen, but there are now examples exceeding 17 million yen. This situation is, of course, partly due to the popularity of the 964, but another factor is the recent weak yen, which has made Japanese used cars relatively affordable from a global perspective. That said, the...
