Porsche GT3 vs. GTS Models: Which Is Better for Long-Distance Touring?

About Porsche’s GTS Models At the end of the year, my husband went on a touring trip in the Boxster GTS and said thoughtfully: The GTS model, true to its name Grand Touring Sport, really is well suited for touring. It’s actually more ideal than the GT3. That’s what he said. When I asked him why, Of course, it’s fun to drive on great roads, but even when driving slowly on regular roads to get...

What I Feel Driving the 911 GT3, While Usually Behind the Wheel of a Cayenne

Getting Back Behind the Wheel of the Porsche 911 GT3 At home, we have sports cars like the Boxster (MT), 911 Cabriolet, 911 GT3 (MT), and a 911 (964), but since they’re often parked near the station or my husband’s workplace, and given that they’re mostly two-seaters (the 911 technically seats four, but it’s basically just two seats in practice…), I rarely get the chance to drive them. My husband says, “You should drive them...

Maintenance Costs of the Porsche 911 GT3: Are They Higher Than the 911 Carrera?

Maintenance Costs of the Porsche GT3 The other day, I received a question: “It’s said that the maintenance costs for the GT3 are higher than those for the 911 Carrera, but what exactly is more expensive and by how much?” So, I asked my husband what he thought about it. Hmm… So far, I don’t really feel that the GT3 is significantly more expensive to maintain compared to the 911 Carrera. However, if you frequently...

Driving the Porsche 911 GT3 to the Heart of Japan Meeting

Touring with Wata, a Boxster Enthusiast My husband has long regarded Wata-san, famous for his blog about his Porsche Boxster (previously a BMW Alpina), as his “mentor.” Wata-san’s 981 Boxster, purchased new, has already surpassed 160,000 kilometers, having conquered countless roads all over Japan multiple times—a truly remarkable driver. My husband often said, I love driving and touring too, but I can’t match Wata-san. He’s really amazing. I hope to meet him someday and drive...

Oil Change for Porsche 911 GT3 at the Dealer: How Much Did It Cost?

GT3 Surpasses 10,000 Kilometers The 911 GT3 was delivered last May. In just a year and a half, it has already exceeded 10,000 kilometers (currently 10,605 km). Even though my husband often goes touring with other cars, the fact that the GT3 has passed 10,000 km really shows how much he loves driving. Recently, my husband mentioned something about the GT3: The feel of the GT3’s steering wheel has changed a bit. It used to...

Driving the Porsche 911 GT3 on the Chirihama Nagisa Driveway!

Heading to Chirihama Nagisa Driveway Lately, my husband has been going on tours almost every week. (Just recently, I wrote an article saying his touring enthusiasm wasn’t as strong as before, haha.) Often, for these long-distance tours, he stays overnight, heading out with a huge load of camera gear and other equipment, like some kind of film crew. And just the other day, he drove on Japan’s only sandy beach where you can actually drive...
