[Reflection] Terrible! I Scratched My Porsche While Parking!

Scratched the Cayenne… The other day, I scratched the right rear side of my Cayenne. After all the proud talk on this blog about “safe driving” and whatnot, I ended up doing exactly the opposite… To explain what happened: this Sunday (today) is the Hyogo Prefecture governor election, but since I couldn’t make it on the day, I decided to go early voting. When I parked at the nearest facility’s parking lot, I scratched the...

Repainting the Wheels of Our Porsche 911 (964) – Do Cars Have Souls Too?

Repainting the Wheels of the 911 (964) The saying, “things have souls,” really rings true. Even with electronic devices, if you treat them carefully, they work well for a long time. Sometimes, the moment you say, “It’s been acting up lately, so maybe I should replace it,” it suddenly starts working perfectly again. I wonder if the same applies to cars. The other day, my husband had the wheels of our 911 (964) repainted at...

Riding the Refreshed Porsche 911 (Air-Cooled 964) Felt Like Driving a New Car

Air-Cooled Porsche 911 (964) Time flies—it’s already been two full years since our 964 was delivered. My husband often said, “Thanks to the regular maintenance over these two years, it’s gotten into really good shape! I think it’s getting close to how it felt when it was brand new.” But with the chaos of childbirth and periods when the 964 was parked far from home, I hadn’t driven it at all. ポルシェ911(空冷964型)の足回り全般を純正部品で交換! 空冷ポルシェ 911(964)の予防整備 –...

Installing ICE FUSE on Our Porsche 911 (Air-Cooled 964 Model)
