Today, I’m sharing a report written by my husband. Please take a look if you’re interested. The other day, at the Porsche Sportscar Together Day at Fuji Speedway, I had the chance to meet Alex, Porsche Japan’s product manager, for the first time. My wife had met him a few times before, but this was my first encounter, and I had been eager to meet and talk with him. This time, Alex gave us a...
911DAYS My husband buys and thoroughly reads every magazine featuring Porsches he’s interested in. When he was considering purchasing an air-cooled 911, he ordered magazines from the time the 964 was released and looked at them daily. Recently, perhaps because he’s waiting for delivery of a 911 GT3 (991.2), he’s been frequently reading magazines featuring the 991. Then the other day, I found the 75th issue of 911DAYS sitting on his study desk. At this...

Even though he’s not actually buying one, haha.(In the past, he even planned out specs for the new Cayenne.)

Video on the Development of the New 911 The other day, my husband told me, “There’s a video showing how the new 911 (992) was developed,” and sent me the URL. The video is titled “Porsche 911 (992) – HOW IT’S DESIGNED” and runs for about 30 minutes. I thought, “30 minutes is quite long (-_-),” but I watched it right away… As expected from Porsche, the behind-the-scenes development was so intense that I sighed,...
The New 911 Cabriolet Has Finally Arrived! Today, Porsche officially announced the new model: the new 911 (992) Cabriolet. Looking back at the history of the 911 Cabriolet, Porsche first revealed a prototype at the Frankfurt International Motor Show (IAA) in September 1981, marking nearly 40 years of heritage. This new 911 Cabriolet not only features the innovative functions of the coupe model but also draws design inspiration from the early generations of the 911....
The New 911 (992) Makes Its Debut Today, the 28th at 1 PM, the eighth generation “New Porsche 911 (992)” officially debuted at the Los Angeles Auto Show (local time: 8 PM on the 27th). The event was live-streamed on News TV Porsche, so I sat in front of my computer starting at 12:55 PM, eagerly waiting. They really kept us waiting!
