A Package from Porsche Japan<\/h3>\n

When we got home from a whitewater rafting trip last weekend, a package from the Porsche Customer Care Center was waiting for us. I opened it to find this:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Beneath the words \u201cWelcome to Porsche World\u201d was this letter:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dear Porsche Owner,<\/em>
\nThank you for choosing a Porsche.<\/em>
\nFor more than 60 years, Porsche has helped shape the history of the sports car,<\/em>
\ncaptivating people in every era.<\/em>
\nWhether you\u2019re enjoying a long drive through beautiful scenery<\/em>
\nor taking the wheel in your everyday life, a Porsche makes every journey a special experience.<\/em>
\nWe hope you\u2019ll savor all that makes a Porsche special every time you get behind the wheel.<\/em>
\nEnclosed is The Porsche Principle, a beautifully produced brand book exploring Porsche\u2019s origins,<\/em>
\nits philosophy of engineering, and the models that have made their mark on automotive history.<\/em>
\nYou\u2019ll also find a leaflet introducing activities and services to make your Porsche life even more rewarding.<\/em>

\nWe look forward to being part of your Porsche journey for many years to come.<\/em>
\nSincerely,<\/em>
\nPorsche Japan K.K.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Porsche Principle<\/h3>\n

Come to think of it, we\u2019d received one of these before. I seem to remember my husband saying, \u201cI read The Porsche Principle cover to cover!\u201d So I opened it up and found a Porsche catalog, along with\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u2026The Porsche Principle.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As I flipped through the pages, I found\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Photos of Ferdinand Porsche and his son Ferry, as well as the third-generation Porsche who helped develop the 911. The book also introduces Porsche models from across the years, with descriptions of each.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

That\u2019s amazing. Apparently, 70 percent of all Porsches ever built are still on the road today. Incredible\u2026 The book also shares stories of cars that have covered more than 600,000 kilometers and still deliver the Porsche driving experience just as they should.<\/p>\n

More than 600,000 kilometers\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

The circumference of the Earth is apparently 40,075 kilometers, so that\u2019s almost 15 trips around the planet. Porsche engineering is impressive, of course, but the owners who rack up that kind of mileage deserve credit, too. A round trip from our home to Osaka is about 50 kilometers. Even if we made that trip every single day for a year, we\u2019d cover just 18,250 kilometers. At that rate, reaching 600,000 kilometers would take 32 years.<\/p>\n

Th-thirty-two years! ( \uff9f\u2200\uff9f)\uff65\u2235. !!<\/span><\/p>\n

Hats off to them. They must take incredibly good care of their cars. I say I love Porsches (especially the Panamera)<\/span>, but I don\u2019t even drive every day, and I\u2019m still a fairly new driver. Suddenly, writing a blog like this feels a little presumptuous. Wow\u2014there really are some incredible people out there.<\/p>\n

I Want to Visit the Porsche Museum in Germany<\/h3>\n

The book also covers Porsche\u2019s wartime move to Gm\u00fcnd, the development of the 911, and Mission E, Porsche\u2019s electric car concept.<\/p>\n

One thing in The Porsche Principle<\/em> really struck me: these words from Ferdinand Porsche.<\/p>\n

\u201cI couldn\u2019t find the car I dreamed of anywhere, so I decided to build it myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s incredible\u2014and impossibly cool. Anyone can say, \u201cIf only\u2026\u201d But having the resolve to build the thing yourself, and then actually creating a truly outstanding sports car, is something else entirely. I asked my husband, \u201cThe Porsche 356 is so cool. Did we see one at the Porsche Museum in Germany?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, we did.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy didn\u2019t you tell me at the time? (-_-)\/\u201d I said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI mean, you weren\u2019t interested at all. You walked right past everything and looked bored the whole time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oh, right\u2026 When we visited the Porsche Museum in Germany three years ago, I didn\u2019t know anything about Porsche and wasn\u2019t especially interested in cars. All I could think about was buying chocolate souvenirs.<\/p>\n

What was I thinking!<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019d love to go back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Package from Porsche Japan When we got home from a whitewater rafting trip last weekend, a package from the Porsche Customer Care Center was waiting for us.
