A friend recently bought a Porsche Taycan GTS, so I had the chance to ride along. Here’s my test drive impression and a detailed comparison with our own Taycan 4S Cross Turismo. How My Friend Came to Buy the Taycan GTS My friend originally drove a BMW 320i, and after about five years and 50,000 km, was thinking about upgrading to a BMW 4 Series M440i Coupe. However, he suddenly developed an interest in the...
The Moment of Delivery: Expectations vs. Reality of the 911 Dakar This time, my younger brother purchased a Porsche 911 Dakar. I accompanied him to pick up the car and then we went on a roughly 900-kilometer grand touring drive together, so this report covers that experience.

The other day, I had the chance to drive both the 718 Cayman (base model) and the 718 Boxster T, so I’d like to share my reviews of each and report on their differences. 718 Cayman (Base Model) First up is the base model 718 Cayman.

Winter Porsche: The Carrera 4 GTS March has arrived, bringing warmer temperatures and pleasant sunny days. Our early 991 Carrera 4 GTS has been with us for about a year and a half. It’s running superbly, with a sharp engine response and an exhaust note that seems to be getting even louder and more thrilling. Originally, I wanted to own an all-wheel-drive Carrera, so I chose the Carrera 4 GTS. Since I wanted to drive...
PASM Sports Suspension I’ve driven many current 992-generation Porsche 911s, but this time it’s a somewhat rare model equipped with the PASM sports suspension. The PASM sports suspension, also known as the PASM sports chassis, features a ride height lowered by about 10mm. The spring rates are increased, making it an option designed to boost performance even further. This PASM sports suspension is standard equipment on GTS models from 991.2 onward (except the Targa), as...
Two Beloved Cars I want to keep every Porsche I own forever, but there are two in particular that I especially want to hold onto. Those are the Boxster GTS (981) and 911 Carrera 4 GTS (991 pre-facelift), both made around the same time. Both are the ‘GTS’ grade, standing for Grand Touring Sport, and both feature naturally aspirated flat-six engines from before noise and environmental regulations became as strict as they are now.
