The purchase and maintenance costs are quite high. So, it\u2019s only if your budget permits&#8230; but I don\u2019t think you ever have to limit yourself to just one car you like. If you want two, buy two. Work hard enough to afford two.<br \/>\nRather than suffering with just one car thinking, \u201c<strong>I really want two&#8230;<\/strong>,\u201d buying two might actually boost your motivation at work, make you think creatively about earning, and maybe even be a net positive. In fact, I think that possibility is quite high.<br \/>\nOf course, family circumstances and parking space might force you to stick to one, and every household has its own constraints, but it\u2019s important to break the mental block of \u201c<strong>It has to be just one car<\/strong>\u201d and consider \u201c<strong>Maybe having two is an option?<\/strong>\u201d<br \/>\nSince I started buying several Porsches myself, every time I did, it motivated me to work harder and earn more to maintain them.<br \/>\nAt first, I was focused on \u201cincreasing my annual income,\u201d but gradually I realized, \u201cIt\u2019s a waste to buy the Porsches I want and then be too busy to enjoy them. Instead of focusing on annual income, I need to focus on raising my hourly rate to have more free time.\u201d<br \/>\nFrom there, I started thinking about \u201chow to build an organization that runs without me\u201d and \u201cwhat skills I need to increase my hourly rate,\u201d and that\u2019s where I am now.<br \/>\nIf you want a Porsche, don\u2019t hesitate to get multiple cars. That mindset ended up raising my own level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That made a lot of sense&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Actually, I once received an email on the blog asking, \u201c<strong>I\u2019m driving a 992, but I\u2019m debating whether to switch to a 981 Boxster.<\/strong>\u201d My husband said then, \u201cIf the budget allows, having two cars would be great\u2026 they\u2019re completely different cars after all\u2026\u201d but that person ended up buying the 981 Boxster.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4421 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_6749-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"981 Boxster GTS\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A few months later, we received a message: \u201c<strong>Actually, after that, I bought a 992 Cabriolet S and am enjoying having two cars! I\u2019m really glad I took the plunge! Thanks to your blog, too.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Amazing\u2026!!!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-9082\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/low_911_carrera_4s_992_2018_porsche_ag-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t help but wonder, <strong>Is the wife really okay with this? I hope she\u2019s not troubled by her husband getting influenced by some random Porsche blog\u2026!<\/strong> (laughs) But in this case, it seems the whole family is enjoying their Porsche life, which is a relief.<\/p>\n<p>Every time we get such feedback, my husband recently says,  <\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\">Especially with used cars, <strong>if you find a model you want, you should definitely get it without hesitation.<\/strong> Due to emissions and environmental regulations, manufacturers can no longer make sports cars like before, so future models won\u2019t be the same as the old ones.<br \/>\nAlso, don\u2019t easily let go of your current beloved car. I think it will become impossible to get a well-maintained car at that price again, so even if you end up with two cars, it\u2019s better to keep them carefully.<\/p>\n<p>That really makes sense&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Recently, we\u2019ve been receiving more and more emails and comments asking about buying Porsches, and sometimes we can\u2019t reply promptly or need some time.<\/p>\n<p>Going forward, we plan to answer questions by featuring them in blog posts or through Twitter\u2019s audio \u201cSpaces\u201d function, so we hope you\u2019ll look forward to that and thank you for your understanding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Dream of Owning Two Porsches.
