Started YouTube! – Video of Driving the Royu Driveway in a Porsche 911 GT3

Cars × Videos My husband has long been watching car test drive reviews on YouTube and occasionally uploading videos as unlisted. About six months ago, I started thinking, “I’d love to try posting videos on YouTube someday.” When I think of car-related YouTube content, the first thing that comes to mind is “test drive review videos.” But for me to do test drive reviews is pretty much out of the question—for three main reasons. First,...

Driving the Porsche 911 GT3 in Heavy Rain: How Far Can Cup Tires Go?

This time, my husband wrote an article about driving the GT3 in the rain in early July. Please take a look if you’re interested. One Month Since GT3 Delivery… This year, the rainy season started quite late in the Kansai region, but finally, the full-on rainy season has arrived. It’s been over a month since the GT3 was delivered, and to test its performance in wet conditions, we decided to deliberately take the GT3 out...

Had Nakabayashi Kogyo Make a Custom Body Cover Just for Our Porsche 911 GT3 Touring!

GT3 Body Cover Our home parking spot has a roof, but since rain and wind come in from the sides, the car tends to get pretty dirty just by parking normally. So, my husband had been saying for a while, “Once the GT3 arrives, we absolutely have to order a body cover.” Recently, he contacted Nakabayashi Kogyo (we always ask them to make body covers for our cars), and they replied: “Up to the B-pillar,...

Riding the Panamera Turbo After Driving the Porsche 911 GT3: Why They Feel So Similar

911 and Panamera The other day, while my family and I were out driving the Panamera, my husband said this while driving: The Panamera is incredibly similar to the GT3. He was seriously saying this. After driving the GT3, getting into the Panamera and pulling out of the garage, it really feels like a 911 that’s been enlarged and made luxurious—there’s no sense of disconnect at all. From someone who regularly drives both, it’s very...

Mastering the Porsche 911 GT3, Vol.1 – A Drive to Sanda Burgring

Heading to Sanda Burgring in the GT3 The other day, I took the GT3 out on a Sunday morning drive along the Royu Driveway. Since my mother-in-law kindly offered to watch the kids until evening, I took advantage of that and decided to head out for a drive to Sanda (Sanda Burgring) in the GT3 in the afternoon.

A Sunday Morning Drive on the Royu Driveway in the Porsche 911 GT3!

Sunday Morning on the Royu Driveway One weekend in June, since my mother-in-law was coming to stay, we arranged for her to watch the kids on Sunday morning, and my husband and I decided to head out to the Royu Driveway together for the first time in a while. The last time we went, even arriving at 8:15 AM, there were hardly any parking spots left, so this time we aimed to get there by...

Break-in Complete for the Porsche 911 GT3 – Let’s See What That 9000rpm Engine Can Do!

Break-in Complete for the GT3 The 1500km break-in period is over, and the 911 GT3 Touring just had its oil changed at the dealer the other day. During the break-in, we were instructed to keep the revs below 7000rpm, and my husband followed that carefully. Now that the break-in is done, we can finally experience the true nature of this wolf in sheep’s clothing. So today, I’d like to share my husband’s review after pushing...

Drove the Porsche 911 GT3 and Panamera on Mountain Roads!

Heading to Royu with the GT3 and Panamera One early Sunday morning, our family of four headed out to the Royu Driveway for the first time in a while. My husband took the freshly broken-in GT3 Touring, and I drove the Panamera Turbo with our two daughters in tow. Since I’d been driving my beloved BMW 320i lately, it had actually been about two weeks since I last got behind the wheel of the Panamera....

GT3 Touring Break-In Drive Today, I’m excited to share a report from my husband on the GT3 Touring’s “Shikoku Break-In Touring.” Unlike the recent Tohoku tour report, which focused on the roads we drove, this one centers more on the break-in process and impressions of the GT3. Please enjoy. Day 1: Setting Off on the Break-In Touring According to the GT3 owner’s manual (2019 edition), the break-in period requires “both GT3 and GT3 RS to...
