New Porsche 911 Cabriolet (992): The Options We Chose

Our next car after the Panamera will be a base-model Porsche 911 (992)—and, as it turns out, a Cabriolet. My husband has written about our decision, so this time I’d like to share the options we chose for our new 911. (It’s April Fool’s Day, but this really isn’t a joke!) Our New 911 (992) Cabriolet Our brief for this car was simple: a comfortable, grown-up 911 Cabriolet. (The Japanese configurator doesn’t show the black...

The New Porsche 911 (992) We Ordered Is a Cabriolet!

The Base 911… I recently wrote that, after weighing the options for replacing the Panamera in our household, we had finally settled on the new 911 (992). Today, I’d like to share which version of the new 911 we chose. The answer? The 911 Carrera Cabriolet. Back when we were asking ourselves, “Cayenne or Taycan?” it never crossed our minds that we’d end up choosing an open-top car. 1. Why We Chose the Base Model...

Our Next Family Car: The New Porsche 911 (992)

What Should Replace Our Panamera? Since last fall, we’d been going back and forth over what to do about replacing our Panamera, which would soon be three years old. (I wrote earlier about the cars we considered in this article.) Our third child was due this summer, making us a family of five, so choosing our next car was no small decision. The obvious answer might seem to be “if it’s a Porsche, it has...

[Reader Report] Driving the New Porsche 911 (992) on Germany’s Autobahn

Germany: A Porsche Road Trip It’s been five years since my husband and I rented a Porsche and toured Germany, driving the Autobahn and the Romantic Road. Even now, he often says: “I’d love to take a Porsche out on the Autobahn again. Maybe I should just move to Stuttgart. Seriously, I want to go back to Germany soon.” It’s hard to fully experience what a Porsche can do on Japan’s ordinary roads and highways....

I Asked Porsche Japan’s Product Specialist About the New 911 (992)

Today, I’m sharing a report written by my husband. We hope you enjoy it! At Porsche Sportscar Together Day at Fuji Speedway, I had the pleasure of meeting Alex, a product specialist at Porsche Japan, for the first time. My wife had apparently met him several times, but I hadn’t had the chance before—and I’d been hoping to meet him and talk about Porsche. Alex gave me a detailed look at the new 911, explaining...

Porsche 911: Is the 991 More Fun Than the New 992?

911DAYS My husband buys and studies every magazine that features a Porsche he’s interested in. When he was considering buying an air-cooled 911, he tracked down magazines from the time the 964 was launched and read them every day. More recently, perhaps because he’s waiting for delivery of a 911 GT3 (991.2), he’s been spending a lot of time with magazines featuring the 991. The other day, I spotted issue 75 of 911DAYS on the...

The New Porsche 911 (992): My Husband’s Ideal Spec—Priced Up in the Configurator

Our Usual Configurator Ritual Whenever Porsche announces a new model, my husband heads to the Porsche Japan website and opens the car configurator. “If I were getting one, this is how I’d spec it,” he says as he dreams up his ideal build. He’s not actually buying one, though! (He’s done the same with the new Cayenne in the past.) Ever since the new 911 (992) was unveiled last year, he’s been devouring YouTube videos...
