Comparing the Porsche 911 GT3 to a Lover…?

Is the GT3 the Perfect Lover? The other day, my husband posted this on Twitter about the GT3: “When you compare the GT3 to a lover, she’s a stunning beauty who turns heads everywhere, smart and capable at work. She prefers dining at top-tier restaurants, with perfect manners, gestures, and conversation. But if you take her to a casual family restaurant or fast food place, she suddenly goes quiet and gets moody. So, you better...

Used Porsche Purchase Story ①｜A 911 Carrera 4 GTS (991 Early Model) Comes Home

Purchased a Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS (991 Early Model) It had been almost half a year since I parted ways with my GT3 Touring Package. Recently, I had been thinking that if I were to buy a Porsche, it would be either a base 718 Cayman or an early 991, so I focused my watch there. Then, a 2015 model year 991.1 (early 991) Carrera 4 GTS with 32,000 km appeared on Car Sensor....

The Origin of the Porsche 911! Driving the Short Wheelbase Narrow

The Origin of the Porsche 911 Among all the Porsche 911s I have driven so far, this is the most primitive 911. This time, I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to test drive a 1967 911S. This Bahama Yellow example exudes a special aura from its dignified presence. The history this car has traveled surely makes you feel that way. With only about 21,000 km on the odometer, it’s an exceptionally well-preserved vehicle....

How My Husband Answered a Porsche Purchase Question from a 981 Boxster Owner

Which Porsche Grade and Model to Choose Among Porsches, my husband often gets asked by people around him about which grade and model to buy.

Until this spring, my husband owned a 911 GT3 Touring (991 late model). He was very particular about options and specs and agonized over selling it for months, but finally decided to let it go this spring. Recently, he said, “If I were to buy the new 911 GT3 Touring Package (992 model), this is how I’d spec it out,” and showed me his configuration. So, this is purely his personal preference and just for...

The Air-Cooled Porsche 911 (964) Is Simply Wonderful My husband has always said, when driving the 992 911, “The 992 really is great~,” and when behind the wheel of the air-cooled 964 Porsche 911, “The 964 really is something else~.” But lately, his words have started to change a bit. Recently, he’s been saying, “The 964 is definitely better! If I had to keep only one, either the 992 or the 964, I’d choose the...

Test Drive of the New Porsche 911 Targa (992): The Most Luxurious Way to Enjoy a 911

The other day, I happened to have the opportunity to experience the new Porsche 911 Targa 4 (992 model), so I’d like to share my report. Porsche 911 Targa 4 (992) This time, I test drove the latest 992-generation Targa 4. It goes without saying, but the Targa is neither a cabriolet nor a coupe.

Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) Is an Absolute Must for Safety

Porsche’s Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) Most Porsches from the last decade come equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM). While it used to be an optional feature, it has gradually become standard equipment, and now every model includes it. The TPM displays tire pressure in real time while driving and alerts you if the pressure drops beyond a certain point. What’s great about Porsche’s TPM is that it tells you exactly how much air to...
