Reviews & Test Rides

I asked my husband, who is testing different Porsche every week, how he thinks about the test drive.

Husband who has a Porsche test drive every week

At the Ashi Driveway, my husband gets a Porsche of an acquaintance and cars of various manufacturers on a weekly basis. And at a later date, I will introduce it as a test drive report on my blog.

It seems that the test drive time is about 15 minutes each time, but "You can write so often just by test-driving for such a short time.The owner often surprises me.

If you can understand that even with a short test drive,Are there any points you want to keep in mind when you test drive at a dealer?When I asked him, my husband said like this.

no…It is impossible to try to understand that much with the dealer's test driveI think. Especially for sports cars like Porsche. I wonder if I can only understand the ride quality, such as a test drive at a dealer.
After all, the test drive course is usually a national road or a general road with many traffic lights?
If you are willing to buy it, you may be able to drive on the highway, but it is absolutely impossible to drive on a mountain pass or winding road.
But Porsche has to run on such a road,I do not know the high performance, handling, braking performance, true funThe following is a list of the most common problems with the "C" in the "C" column.
Also, in the old days, at an imported car dealer, I could experience the salesman skipping to some extent in the passenger seat, but now the times have changed and the salesman is busy, so I can not do such a test drive. ..

And.

That's true. The test drive on the general road gives you a good idea of the ride quality of everyday use. However, in the case of Porsche (in the case of a two-seater or a sports model), I think that it often does not give a very good impression when driving on a general road.

The suspension is stiff, and there is no luxury in the interior or equipment, so "If so, Mercedes-Benz and Lexus are better at allI think there is a pattern in which the test drive ends with the evaluation.

About Porsche, it is the first time to drive on a mountain pass, a tight corner, a road that can speed up to some extent like a highway, etc.Porsche is a car that you can trust and enjoy with peace of mind.You can experience that.

I think it will be a different evaluation from the test drive on the general road.

And my husband said like this.

Also, I think the reason why I can understand it well even though it is a short test drive is because I run the same road called Ashi Driveway every time.
I've run hundreds of times so far, so I know the course well,You can run while experiencing the fact that running on the same road with different cars is so different.Therefore, I think that the amount of information that can be obtained even in a short time is large.
."Even with the same 991, if it is Carrera 4 GTS and base grade, the time to go through this corner is different like thisOr "Even in the same open carThis is different between Boxster and 911 CabrioletYou can run while comparing such things everywhere.
I think that kind of part is also big.

This was the case.

Test drive report that can be written because it is a personal blog

While listening to various stories,

."However, I don't have a chance to test drive on the mountain pass, and when I think about it, I usually have to look at the reviews and blog posts of car critics on youtube to collect information. ..When I say "the

Well, in the end, there may be no choice but to collect information in that way.
evenCar critic reviews are often wrapped in oblateI'm not sure.
Since we borrow cars from manufacturers and companies for reviews, we will be careful to some extent, and even if there are negative points, I think there are some parts that cannot be clearly stated.
I think that people who see it may be misunderstood because they don't understand what they want to convey.
That's why I'mIn this blog, I want to write a review that I felt franklyI think.
I'm not asking someone to get the money, so I can write without worrying about it.
Also, because I have been riding many Porsche, "Compare and tellI try to do it.
Even if the ride quality is simply hard, I think that the recipient will make various imaginations."How is it compared to GT3?" "How is it compared to the predecessor?"I think it would be nice if I could convey it more accurately by writing it as relatively as possible.
Also, cars change according to taste, not good or bad.This car doesn't suit this kind of person, but I think it suits this kind of personI am also conscious of communicating in the form of.
Even so, personal opinions are included, and I'm not a professional, so there are still some parts that I haven't fully communicated, but I'd like to continue to make use of the strengths of my personal blog.

He said.

Thankfully, recently, readers have said, "I want you to ride it!I got in touch with him and had more opportunities to test drive. Since it is a precious car for everyone, we will continue to send out the raw voice that can be conveyed only by this blog, such as things that can not be felt by the dealer's test drive, things that can not be conveyed by the reviews of car critics, even though we will carefully test drive it. I hope I can do it.
