2000km Year-End Touring with the Porsche Boxster [Day 5 – Final Day]

The other day, my husband said to me, “I wrote an article about the Boxster touring, please take a look.” I thought, “Huh, did we go touring in the Boxster recently?” and checked it out. It turned out to be a sequel to last year’s year-end Kyushu touring article (laughs). So, if you’re interested, please have a look. Final Day of the Boxster Kyushu Touring I wondered, “Wait, did I write about the final day...

The 6th Year of Our 981 Boxster GTS Our Boxster just passed its second inspection this November. Until now, my husband used to say things like, “I wonder if the time will come to part with the Boxster someday…” But as he’s driven it more, he’s discovered new joys and charms, kept up with maintenance, continued the extended warranty… I think he’s finally decided to keep it for the long haul. That said, he rarely...

Still, we obviously haven’t driven every model, so there’s a lot we don’t know or understand about Porsche. Among the many comments we receive from Porsche owners on the blog, it’s always enlightening to read things like, “Ah, so that’s...
