What Happens When I, a 981 Boxster GTS Driver, Take the 718 Boxster GTS for a Spin?

718 Boxster GTS About a year ago, I had the chance to drive a friend of my husband’s 718 Boxster GTS (MT). However, at that time, I wasn’t very confident driving a manual car, so my husband warned me on the spot: Mina, better not. You’ll break the clutch. Reluctantly, I gave up on driving the 718 Boxster GTS. That moment became the trigger for me to say, “I absolutely must learn to drive a...

What You Notice When Driving a Panamera After a Porsche Boxster

Panamera and Boxster Come to think of it, I haven’t written much about the Panamera on the blog lately. Since our home parking space only fits two cars, we rent several other parking spots elsewhere. And because the Panamera has been parked for a while at a spot a bit farther from home, it hasn’t seen much use recently. However, to avoid the battery dying, the other day we decided, “Maybe we should swap the...

3000km Tohoku Touring in a Porsche Boxster [Part 1]

Heading to Tohoku in the Boxster I’ve been tweeting bits and pieces, but during the recent Golden Week, my husband took the Boxster on a Tohoku tour. Six nights and seven days, no ferries or anything—it was a full self-driven long-distance tour. As usual, he put together a detailed report from DAY 1 through DAY 7, which is quite a long read, so I’ll share it in several parts here. By the way, here’s a...
