Rediscovering the Ultimate Joy of Driving the Boxster

　 A Long-Awaited Drive in the Boxster The other day, I had the chance to drive the Porsche Boxster (981 Boxster GTS) again after quite some time. Recently, I’ve mostly been driving the Carrera T delivered at the end of May, but one day my husband came home in the Boxster and said, “This is truly fun! It’s just too much fun!” He spoke about its joy as if it were the delivery day all...

Test Drive of Porsche 718 Cayman and 718 Boxster T: What Makes the 718 ‘T’ Different?

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. This particular car had almost no sporty options and was the most basic 718 Cayman. I’ve reviewed the 718 Cayman several times before, but this time I want to...

Kyushu Touring 2023 Day 3 with Porsche Boxster GTS (981)

Kyushu Touring Day 2 Off to Ibusuki Skyline On a morning when the sun appeared and the rain had stopped, we headed for the Ibusuki Skyline in the Porsche Boxster. This was the main destination of this touring trip. The Ibusuki Skyline starts from Taniyama IC, and after paying the 100 yen toll, traffic thinned out significantly. From the occasional viewpoints along the way, the majestic Sakurajima volcano peeked through. Some parts of the road...

Recommended Mineral Off Car Wash

Last year, a Keeper Labo opened nearby, so I’ve been frequently visiting for coating and car washes for my beloved vehicles. I plan to write a detailed article about coating another time, but this time, I want to introduce Keeper Labo’s “Mineral Off Car Wash.” Please note, this article is not a typical promotional piece for Keeper. It’s simply my honest impression after personally paying for the service. What is Mineral Off Car Wash? If...

Thoughts on Owning Two GTS Models: Boxster (981) and 911 (991 Pre-Facelift)

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. The...

The Joy of High-Performance Cars Like Porsche Grows with the Driver’s Skill

Back When I Couldn’t Drive a Manual About five years ago, I could barely drive a manual transmission car. Every time I got behind the wheel of the only manual car we had at home, the Boxster GTS (981), I thought, “There’s no way I’ll ever be able to drive a manual car.” My sense of defeat just kept growing. My feet wouldn’t leave the accelerator or clutch pedals, and I half-wondered, “Does the Boxster’s...

Spring San’in Touring with the Porsche Boxster

A Journey with the Boxster When spring break comes, my wife and kids always go back to their parents’ home. March was busy for various reasons, but with work settling down, I decided to take a short tour after a long time. At first, I was thinking about heading toward Wakayama, where the highway has been expanded to four lanes, but the weather forecast showed it would be bad there. Looking westward, the weather seemed...
