I often browse SNS and get comments about everyone’s beloved cars during my weekly YouTube live streams, and whenever a car catches my eye, I can’t help but check Car Sensor. Even though I’m not buying. Actually, I can’t afford to buy (lol). On the other hand, just looking at the information posted on used car sites often makes it hard to judge whether a particular car is a good buy or not. I also...

This time, I had the opportunity to drive the late-model 991 Porsche 911 GT3 (MT), so I’d like to share my review while comparing it with the 996 GT3. 996 GT3 vs 991 GT3 In my previous article, I wrote about how impressed I was after test-driving the 996 GT3, and before that excitement faded, I got the chance to drive the late-model 991 GT3.

Test Drive of the Late Model 996 Porsche 911 GT3 On this blog, we have test-driven various 911s from the original to the latest 992 GT3, but reports on the 996 and 997 models are still scarce. Especially for the 996, we only have articles on the late-model Carrera 4S and the early-model Carrera 4. This time, I had the opportunity to test drive a pristine, original-condition late-model 996 GT3, and I’d like to share...

Winter Snow Drive in the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS (991 Early Model)

Winter Porsche: The Carrera 4 GTS March has arrived, bringing warmer temperatures and pleasant sunny days. Our early 991 Carrera 4 GTS has been with us for about a year and a half. It’s running superbly, with a sharp engine response and an exhaust note that seems to be getting even louder and more thrilling. Originally, I wanted to own an all-wheel-drive Carrera, so I chose the Carrera 4 GTS. Since I wanted to drive...

The Ducktail on the Porsche 911 Recently, Porsche unveiled the limited edition 992 model 911, the 911 Sport Classic, which is still fresh in our memories. This Sport Classic is based on the Turbo body and features a ducktail spoiler, paying homage to the 1973 Carrera RS (commonly known as the ’73 Carrera’). The very first production Porsche to feature a ducktail was this ’73 Carrera, developed to generate downforce on the 911’s body, which...

The Popular 991 Model Recently, the popularity of the 991-generation Porsche 911 has been steadily rising. The 991 is one of the 911s with a major difference between early and late models: the early models have naturally aspirated engines, while the late models are equipped with turbo engines. This time, I had the opportunity to test drive a late-model 991 GTS. In fact, I had previously borrowed a late 991 GTS for about a week,...

Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS Touring in Heavy Rain

Porsche in the Rain is Also Great I’m well known as a touring enthusiast, but I actually enjoy driving not only on sunny days but also in heavy rain. So, when I see a forecast for heavy rain rather than just a drizzle, I sometimes get an irresistible urge to go somewhere. Why do I like driving in heavy rain? I can’t quite explain it well myself, but I love the atmosphere—the rain hitting the...
