Porsche 911 Turbo S (992) Review: How It Compares with the GT3 and What It’s Like to Drive

My husband recently had the chance to take a friend’s Porsche 911 Turbo S (992) for a test drive, and he’s written up his impressions. We hope you enjoy the report. Porsche 911 Turbo S (992) The Turbo is the flagship grade in the Porsche 911 lineup. It has sat at the top of the 911 range since the 930 generation, setting itself apart from the standard models. And the car we were lucky enough...

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

What Makes Porsche GTS Models Great for Touring? After a year-end road trip in our Boxster GTS, my husband reflected: The GTS stands for “Grand Touring Sport,” and it really is well suited to touring. Even more so than the GT3. That got me wondering. When I asked him why, he explained: Of course, it’s fun to drive on great roads, but even on regular roads, when you’re taking it easy at lower speeds, the...

What It’s Like to Drive a 911 GT3 When You Usually Drive a Cayenne

Getting Back Behind the Wheel of the Porsche 911 GT3 Our household has a few sports cars—a manual Boxster, a 911 Cabriolet, a manual 911 GT3, and a 911 (964). But they’re often parked near the train station or close to my husband’s office. They’re also mostly two-seaters (the 911 may have four seats, but in practice it feels like a two-seater…), so I don’t get many chances to drive them. My husband always tells...

Porsche 911 GT3 Ownership Costs: Is It More Expensive to Maintain Than a 911 Carrera?

Porsche GT3 Maintenance Costs The other day, someone asked me, “People say a GT3 costs more to maintain than a 911 Carrera, but what exactly costs more—and by how much?” I asked my husband what it had been like in practice. He said: “Hmm… So far, I haven’t found it dramatically more expensive than a 911 Carrera. But if you drive it on track often, you’ll need to change the oil more frequently, which would...

A Porsche 911 GT3 Road Trip to Japan’s “Center of the Country” Meeting

A Road Trip with Boxster Owner wata My husband has long looked up to wata, a well-known blogger who writes about his Porsche Boxster (and previously, his BMW ALPINA). His 981 Boxster, which he bought new, has already covered more than 160,000 km, and he’s driven just about every road in Japan—many of them more than once. He’s an incredible enthusiast. My husband has always said: I love driving and going on road trips, but...

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

Our GT3 Has Passed 10,000 Kilometers Our 911 GT3 was delivered last May. In just a year and a half, it has already covered more than 10,000 kilometers—10,605 kilometers, to be exact. My husband often takes other cars on road trips, too, so the fact that the GT3 has still passed the 10,000-kilometer mark really drives home just how much he loves being behind the wheel. Recently, he mentioned something he’d noticed about the GT3....

Driving a Porsche 911 GT3 on the Chirihama Nagisa Driveway!

A Trip to the Chirihama Nagisa Driveway Lately, my husband has been heading out on a drive almost every week. (Funny, I’d only just written that his enthusiasm for touring wasn’t what it used to be!) He often makes a trip of it and stays overnight, packing so much camera gear and other equipment that he looks like he’s heading out with a film crew. The other day, he drove along the Chirihama Nagisa Driveway,...

Took the Porsche 911 GT3 for a Spin After a Long Time!

A Long-Awaited Drive in the GT3 The other day, I drove the 911 GT3 (MT) for the first time in three months. I only drove it for about 20 minutes to swap it with another car in the parking lot, but it was great to feel the GT3 again after such a long break. Our GT3 is a 991 late model GT3 Touring. The clutch on this GT3 is surprisingly light compared to the 981...
