[Porsche Maintenance Costs] Is Porsche Insurance Expensive? How Much Does It Actually Cost?

Porsche Car Insurance For those planning to buy a Porsche, how much Porsche car insurance costs is naturally a big concern. I have touched on insurance a few times in past articles, but never in much detail, so this time I’d like to organize the information a bit. First of all, I have all my insurance through the dealer. To be honest, it’s not cheap. I’m well aware there are cheaper options, but since I...

Just Bought Porsche 911 Broke Down! Understanding the PADM Error

PADM Error As I mentioned recently on a Twitter Space, while driving my newly purchased early 991 Carrera 4 GTS, I suddenly noticed a PADM error warning on the instrument panel. The error is displayed in white (there also seems to be a yellow version), so it doesn’t affect driving and the car runs normally without any issues. From my research across various SNS platforms, this PADM error appears to be a common fault. It’s...

Maintenance Costs for Air-Cooled Porsches: About 2.12 Million Yen Over 3 Years!

The Soaring Prices of Air-Cooled Porsches Recently, the prices of air-cooled Porsches have been climbing relentlessly. While used prices for domestic sports cars have also generally increased, the rate of increase for air-cooled Porsches is truly remarkable. Nowadays, even those in decent condition mostly come with price tags marked as ‘Negotiable’ or ‘ASK.’ Even for cars with listed prices, if they have under 100,000 km and are close to original condition, a 964 Tiptronic can...

Costs and Photos of Scratch Repairs on My Porsche Cayenne

I Scratched My Porsche Cayenne The other day, I wrote an article about how I scratched my Cayenne. On the same day, I took it to a body shop for an estimate, and after sending it in for repairs, it came back—so I want to share about that experience. The body shop I entrusted with the Cayenne repairs is the same one I used many times when I had just graduated from being a paper...

What’s Going On This Year? Porsche 911 (Air-Cooled 964) Air Conditioning Isn’t Working

The other day, the air conditioning on our air-cooled Porsche 911 (964 model) stopped working, and my husband wrote an article about it. Please take a look if you’re interested. Air Conditioning on the Air-Cooled Porsche Lately, I’ve been rotating through the Porsches, switching which one I drive each week. As summer approached and the temperatures rose significantly, I decided to take the 964 out for a spin after a while. Starting the engine in...

Five Years Since Delivery of the Porsche Boxster GTS: The Second Inspection Cost a Whoppi...

981 Boxster GTS Inspection This is my husband’s first Porsche, the 981 Boxster GTS. I was there when it was delivered back in 2015. I still vividly remember how excited he was when he finally got his long-awaited Porsche after deciding years ago, “I will definitely buy a Porsche someday.” It still feels so strange, like it’s not really mine yet. It’s been a while since I drove a manual, and the clutch is so...

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...

Riding the Refreshed Porsche 911 (Air-Cooled 964) Felt Like Driving a New Car

Air-Cooled Porsche 911 (964) Time flies—it’s already been two full years since our 964 was delivered. My husband often said, “Thanks to the regular maintenance over these two years, it’s gotten into really good shape! I think it’s getting close to how it felt when it was brand new.” But with the chaos of childbirth and periods when the 964 was parked far from home, I hadn’t driven it at all. ポルシェ911（空冷964型）の足回り全般を純正部品で交換！ 空冷ポルシェ 911（964）の予防整備 –...

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...
