My husband is starting to think about switching to a Panamera - next on the list is a Porsche Taikan?

My Family's Car Life

Switching Panameras?

The other day, I wrote about the one-year inspection of my Panamera, and as soon as next October, my Panamera Turbo will be ready for inspection.

Porsche Panamera one year inspection - inspection items, remaining tire tread, cost, etc.

In response to this, for some time now, my husband has been saying, "I might be able to replace my Panamera with the next car before the inspection.He said, "I'm sorry. When I heard that, I said, "But it's a great car and I'm fine with it for a while...I say."

No, it's true, but the value of a car decreases as time goes by, and if you are going to change cars someday, you might as well do it while the mileage is still low. Since the situation of continuing to pay the loan will not change, it is a question of what kind of car you want to drive with the loan.

And. Oh, I see. My husband was

Cayenne would be nice, though. And if you decide to go with the Panamera again.Next time, a plain Panamera will suffice.I think it's a good idea. The rest.Or maybe a hybrid.I don't know.

He said. In response, I was asked to write a letter to thePanamera is a sports car for the whole familySo, I would prefer a Panamera. I would also prefer a Panamera to a car with a high ride height.I prefer a car that can drive like a sports car with a lower line of sight.And."

My husband said, "Well, I guess so. Time passed as we repeated this conversation several times.

I used to be completely uninterested in cars.Mercedes Benz S-Class and C-Class are the same size! I can't tell the difference!I was the one who said things like, "I'm not going to be able to do that," and then a few years later I said, "I prefer sports cars with low eye level.I never thought I'd say, "I don't know what's going to happen in my life.

Taikan, here we come!

And recently, the world premiere of Taikan was streamed live. On that day, the couple put the children to bed and stood by at 10:00 p.m. to watch the world premiere live in real time.

Breaking News] Porsche Taycan Revealed - Summary of World Premiere

Then, at the end of the livestream, Taikan was finally unveiled, and my husband saw it.

Hmmm...the design of the vertical slits in the headlights looks like a domestic car.... I'd like to test drive one, but I don't think I'll buy one.

He said, "I guess it wasn't one of my husband's.The next day, when I was thinking, "I'm sorry. When my husband came home, he said something like this.

The next car after the Panamera, could be the Taikan!

reluctantlyNo, no, no...!
Ansan, yesterday, you said, "I don't need a taikan.You were saying something like, "I'm not a fan of this!

No, that's right. Since then.I've been trying to configure all the taikan configurations on foreign sites.I was like, "Oh, man, I'm so cool! I was surprised at how cool it looked when the body color was blue or darker colors. The design of the headlights is different from that of some domestic cars because the headlights are not connected to each other.
andThe Taican also has a "Sport Exhaust" option (Porsche Electric Sport Sound).I like the "squeak" sound it makes. It's pretty cool. I'll have to get a Taikan!

And. What the heck, he looks like he wants it so bad (*_*)!

When I heard my husband say that, I looked at Taikan again and thought to myself, "That's pretty cool. I see them all over town.Sophisticated sports car feelis likely to be out. "But I wonder if they have charging facilities or not?When I hear the word(We rent a detached house.), ,

That's the bottleneck. My parking lot is 100V, so I think I need to change the voltage. Also, recently, there are more and more charging facilities in highway SAs and hotel parking lots, and if it's not working, we can just bring it to a Porsche Center.

And.

I see... I feel sad that I have to temporarily leave the Panamera, but I've been thinking that I'm going to have to leave the "Panamera" for a while now.Buy a Porsche with your own money!I'm setting a goal of "I can buy it back later myself" (laughs). I'd like to take this opportunity to say "Taikan came to our house.It might be interesting to call it "the

Also, it's definitely a good blog post.

."If I were to buy one, which grade would it be?When I hear the word

I agree. I don't need a higher-end model like a turbo or turbo S, so I think I'll just go with the "bare bones" model. First of all, I would like to experience what Porsche's electric car is like. I'll ask Mr. H for a test drive as soon as it becomes available.

I was told that it was a good idea. However, when I bought the Panamera Turbo that is currently in my home, I also initially thought thatJust a plain model or something.After placing the order, though he said, "I'm not sure I'm going to be able to get aI'm going to go with the turbo!I said, "I had to contact Mr. H to change it, so I don't know what will happen w

We are still a long way off, and it is unlikely that the Taikan will be delivered before the Panamera's inspection next October, but that is the direction our family is moving in when it comes to switching cars.

    This is almost a definite trend to buy Taikan (laughs).

    My family is also thinking about changing to a Panamera next. (To be exact, I'm the only one thinking about it, as the wife and kids are completely indifferent to the idea.)

    I test drove the new Cayenne several times and each time I thought it was nice, but when I got in my Panamera on the way home, I still preferred this one.

    I test drove a Volvo PHEV (V60 twin engine), thinking that it would not have to be a Panamera if PHEV was a requirement. I thought I could switch to Volvo considering the cost performance such as the practicality of the rear seat, motor driving on the downhill road which is more nimble than Panamera, and safety equipment as standard equipment, etc. However, after all, when I get in my Panamera when I go home, I still prefer this one, and I concluded that I would switch to Panamera next time, too. I am aiming for a late model 971, but I am satisfied enough to think that I may continue to drive a 970 PHEV depending on my financial situation.

    There is still a lot of time before the Taikan, so why not try the Panamera PHEV in between?
    Compared to the Panamera Turbo, it would probably be less attractive as a sports car and more of a slightly sporty luxury saloon. But since we have the Boxster and GT3 for sports driving and Mina seems to be getting used to driving a manual transmission, I don't think it will be a problem even if the sports car element is somewhat diminished from the Panamera.

    It was the opinion of a self-serving reader who just wanted to read a new review on a blog.

      Mr. Ishi.
      Thank you for everything.

      >This is almost a definite trend to buy Taikan (laughs).
      I feel that I would almost certainly buy one if only I could clear up the problem of charging facilities (laughs).

      I understand the feeling of saying, "I really like the Panamera.
      The other cars are also very nice, but when you drive the Panamera again, you think, "Ah, this is it...".

      My husband had also been interested in the Panamera PHEV for some time.
      As you say, even if the sports car element is somewhat diminished from the Panamera
      Since we are currently fine, my husband may feel like, "Well, if we're going to the trouble, let's just go for an electric car! (laugh).

      I'm sure we'll consider things as we still have time, so keep 'em coming!

    The day before yesterday I happened to be in Frankfurt and went to the motor show.

    Of course, the most notable is Taikan.

    The lights certainly looked a little strange at first glance.
    I think that is probably because Porsche = round eyes.
    However, the design has inherited Porsche elements in every part, and the lights can be considered a challenge for the new Porsche.
    The colors available were dark blue and red in addition to white, but I personally found the blue one to be the coolest and most eye-catching.
    The Porsche booth was also crowded with the 718 Cayman GT4, Boxster Spyder and 911 (992).
    (The most spectacular and crowded booth was Lamborghini's "Cyan" booth...)

    As mentioned in various articles, EVs were pushed to the forefront at this motor show, and I felt a little sad that EVs will become the mainstream in the future, but I thought that this could not be helped if each manufacturer made better products because of environmental issues.

    But still, that speed of decision making (laughs).
    That's what I'm talking about.
    In a sense, the time when you can imagine many things is the most enjoyable.
    I look forward to uploading another test drive of the Taikan sometime.

    P.S. The quality of your recent photos has been further improved and I am fascinated by them. I look forward to seeing more of your wonderful photos.

      >The day before yesterday I happened to be in Frankfurt and went to the motor show.
      Wow. !!!!!
      How I envy you...! I see!!!! Wow I envy you!!!

      >I think it is probably because of the strong image of Porsche = round eyes.
      >The design of the car has many Porsche elements, and the lights can be seen as a new Porsche challenge.
      I see. Certainly, at a quick glance, I got the impression that the front design was not quite right, or perhaps it was not a Porsche, and
      I thought the wheels looked different too.

      When I was looking at youtube reviews of the Taikan, etc., I felt, "I knew it was a Porsche..."
      After all, it is because it has inherited the elements of Porsche.

      >And yet, how fast you made that decision (laughs).
      My husband has been watching a lot of youtube on Taikan lately, and he seems to be completely addicted to it.
      There's still time before we can order...
      I'll be by your side to observe what happens from here on out! LOL!

      >P.S. The quality of your recent photos has been further polished and I am fascinated by them. I look forward to seeing more of your wonderful photos.
      Thank you! My husband has recently started to do more than just photography, and his taste in photography has changed a bit.

    Dear Mina

    Nice to meet you, my name is Chikyaku.

    I always read and learn from your blog ^_^.

    My uncle drives a 1992 Carrera 2 Cabriolet, and I thought, "Someday I will buy a Porsche too! I thought I would buy a Porsche someday.

    And then the Taikan was announced and I thought "I'm going to buy a Taikan! I was thinking that I would buy the 970S e-Hybrid, but I couldn't wait for 、、、、 and I couldn't resist.

    I made a foolhardy debut with my first car in my life, a Panamera ( ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´´).

    Also, at the end of this month, I will take delivery of a 971 4E Hybrid, in a changeover, Sapphire Blue Metallic.

    I live within 30 minutes or so to Ashiari, so if you have a chance, I would love to have a ride and have your comments ^_^.

      >I made a foolish debut with my first car in my life, a Panamera.
      Ehhh that's super awesome...! That's insanely awesome!!!! Congratulations!
      And they said transfer...!

      In fact, my Panamera has a choice of body color: navy blue (night blue metallic) or sapphire blue.
      I was torn until the very end...!
      That's so cool!

      >I live within 30 minutes or so to Ashiari, so if you have a chance, I would love to have you ride and comment ^_^.
      Errr, really! I'm so happy!
      We'd love to hear from you. !!!!

      I heard that after December, Ashiu gets quite cold and the road surface freezes.
      I'd be happy to give you a ride when it warms up again!
