Finally Meeting My Dream Porsche Driver After Five Years!

Sapphire Blue Boxster, Mr. Wata The other day, after about five years of wanting to meet him, I finally got the chance to meet someone I had admired for a long time. His name is Mr. Wata. After running an Alpina blog, he now operates the Porsche Boxster blog, “Wind & Light, Boxster.” Mr. Wata’s beloved 981 Boxster has an incredible current mileage of 230,000 kilometers (and it’s probably even more by now). In Japan,...

Carrera T Break-In Complete: Oil and Filter Change at 2,900km! How Does It Drive Now!?

Carrera T Heads for Oil Change Just over two months after taking delivery of the Carrera T, the mileage finally hit 2,900km, marking the end of the break-in period. So, just before the Obon holidays in August, I took it to the dealer for an oil and filter change. My husband had told me in advance, Make sure to get the filter changed along with the oil. Even if the oil is clean, it’s pointless...

Driving a Porsche MT Becomes So Much More Fun! Finally Mastered Blipping.

A Long-Awaited Boxster Drive Yesterday, I drove the Boxster (981 GTS) for the first time in a while. Whenever I get behind the wheel of our Porsche, I always write “It’s been a while…,” but this time, I honestly couldn’t even remember the last time I drove the Boxster—it had been that long. Usually, I drive my beloved Swift Sport (MT). It’s been a year since I took delivery, and I drive it almost every...

Test Driving the BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe (840i): How Does It Compare to the Panamera?

Recently, I had the opportunity to test drive the current 8 Series Gran Coupe, and I’d like to share my review. As usual, I’ll focus more on the driving performance and compare it with the Porsche Panamera I previously owned. BMW 8 Series The BMW 8 Series has been one of my dream cars since childhood. I remember vividly the day when I first saw the previous generation 8 Series parked in front of a...

I Want to Master Driving the Porsche Boxster GTS Manual

Back Behind the Wheel of the Manual Boxster GTS The other day, I took the Boxster GTS (981, MT) for a drive on the Royu Driveway after quite some time. Since I usually travel with my kids, I don’t often get to drive a sporty Porsche, so this was my first Boxster drive in several months. I’ve written extensively about how great the Boxster GTS is, so today I want to share a slightly different...

What Makes Royu Driveway So Special? – Visiting the Sunday Morning Gathering at Royu

A Sunday Morning Trip to Royu One Sunday morning, since my mother-in-law was able to watch the kids, my husband and I took the GT3 and headed to the Royu Driveway. This time, after tweeting in advance that we’d be going to Royu, several people replied, “I’m going too!” so I was really looking forward to meeting everyone. We arrived at the East Rokko Observatory on Royu Driveway around 8:30 a.m. But the parking lot...

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...

Enjoying the Night View on Royu Driveway in a BMW!

Aiming to Be an MT Lady Driver It’s been a week since I took delivery of my BMW 320i. Since then, I’ve been driving almost every day, so I’ve gotten quite comfortable behind the wheel. I no longer stall, and I don’t roll back on hill starts anymore. Even on gentle slopes where auto-hold doesn’t kick in, I can start smoothly without panicking. So far, I’ve been to Harborland in Kobe, driven on the Hanshin...
