Circuit Debut with the 718 Cayman T! A Novice’s Impressions of Driving at Fuji Speedway

The other day, I participated in the 911days driving event and took the 718 Cayman T around Fuji Speedway. I’ve driven Fuji Speedway many times before, but this time it was with the Cayman T. Previously, I’ve driven there in a 981 Boxster GTS, a 991 GT3, an early 991 Carrera 4 GTS, and a 992 Cabriolet. Pushing the Circuit with the 2-Liter Base Engine I’ve mentioned on the blog before that the base 718...

How Has the 718 Cayman T Been After Six Months? (Part 2)

Continuing from the first part, this time I’d like to focus on impressions from winding roads and highways. 718ケイマンTの納車から半年経過してどうだった？（前編） A Mid-Engine Car’s Perfect Cornering Example At home, we have a 981 Boxster GTS and a 992, but the way the 718 Cayman T corners is different from both. Of course, since it’s the same mid-engine layout, it’s closer to the 981 Boxster GTS, but its driving performance far surpasses that. True to its mid-engine nature,...

Test Drive: Porsche Cayman (987) | The Perfect Partner, Cayman

After discussing on YouTube and my blog how there are few test drive reports on generations like the 987, 997, 986, and 996, I had the opportunity to cover a late-model 987 Cayman this time, so I’d like to share my report. Late Model 987 Cayman Base Model This time, the test drive is of a late-model 987 Cayman. With the late model, the engine grew from 2.7L to 2.9L, boosting power to 265ps. Notably,...

Suddenly, Delivery Day! The Porsche 718 Cayman T Has Arrived at Our Home! Why Did We Choo...

Why Did I Decide to Buy the 718 Cayman T? Actually, today the brand-new 718 Cayman T was delivered! Originally, I was interested in the base 718 Cayman (the 2-liter model), and as mentioned in my blog article “My Husband Is Curious About the Base Porsche 718 Cayman, So I Asked Him Why”, I wanted a base 718 Cayman for circuit and mountain driving. Some time ago, the dealer’s representative suggested, “How about the 718...

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...

Test Drive of the New GR86 (RZ・6AT)｜How Does a Porsche Owner Feel?

I’ve written many blog posts before, but when it comes to reviewing domestic cars, I honestly don’t want to write anything negative because domestic car fans tend to get overly defensive. However, that would defeat the purpose of an independent personal blog, so I’ve decided to write candidly this time as well. Toyota GR86 This time, I had the chance to test drive the new Toyota GR86 (RZ・6AT). Just before this, I had driven the...

Test Drive of the New Supra (6MT)｜How Did a Porsche Owner Feel?

Toyota Supra When I think of the Supra, the A80 model (1993-2002) — the ’80s Supra immediately comes to mind. Its larger body and drastically changed design from the previous generation divided opinions, but I really liked it. I especially admired the rear styling, the taillight design, and the enveloping driver’s seat. That Supra was redesigned in 2019. When I first saw the design in the announcement, I was disappointed, and I was surprised that...

Recently, among Porsche’s new models, the one that has caught my personal attention is the 718 Cayman GT4 RS. I’ve put in an order, but with production slots being quite limited, I’ve almost given up hope (laughs). This time, I had the opportunity to test drive the 718 Cayman GT4 RS, so I’d like to share my test drive report. 718 Cayman GT4 RS This is the top-tier grade of the Cayman, enhancing the performance...

What’s the Difference Between the 981 Cayman and 718 Cayman? Which One Suits You?

The other day, I had the chance to borrow a base model 718 Cayman as a loaner. And just about a month ago, I also happened to drive a base model 981 Cayman. This time, rather than a test drive report or review, I want to focus on the characteristics I feel these two 98x-series cars have, and what exactly sets them apart. The 718 and 981 Caymans To be precise, 718 is the model...
