That is to thoroughly research the route beforehand. While route research before a tour might sound obvious, my husband\u2019s preparation is exceptionally detailed.<\/p>\n<p>This is because it\u2019s not just about getting to the destination quickly, but about <strong>choosing the best roads where he can enjoy driving his Porsche to the fullest<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>For example, when he decides, \u201c<strong>We\u2019re going touring next Sunday<\/strong>,\u201d he first studies the Touring Mapple guide, checks the blog of <a href=\"https:\/\/wind-and-light-bxtr.blog.ss-blog.jp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wata-san, a Boxster owner<\/a> whom he deeply respects and believes to be <strong>Japan\u2019s top Porsche touring enthusiast<\/strong>, and reviews Google Maps routes he has driven before, all while carefully planning the route.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24868\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/IMG_3437.jpg\" alt=\"Touring Mapple\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Also, depending on whether he takes the 911 Cabriolet (992), the Boxster GTS (981), or the air-cooled 911 (964) (or previously the 911 GT3), the ideal speed range and road characteristics for a pleasant drive change, so he takes all that into account during his thorough route research.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing him prepare so meticulously, I said, \u201c<strong>Wow, I could never be that thorough<\/strong>,\u201d and he replied:<\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\">Well, since we\u2019re going somewhere we normally can\u2019t drive to, and we\u2019re doing it in a Porsche, it only makes sense to pick the most enjoyable roads. If it were just about getting from A to B in a regular car, I wouldn\u2019t bother so much. But since it\u2019s a sports car, it\u2019s natural to prepare so we can fully enjoy the drive.<br \/>\nI hate regretting later, thinking, \u201c<strong>Oh, we missed that great road<\/strong>.\u201d<br \/>\nOf course, sometimes I spot a road that looks fun and take a detour, but mostly I stick to the planned route.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24869\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/D3723476-3A03-41A2-92B2-FB19CBD08972-1280x720-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Touring\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s impressive\u2026 As an ordinary person, even when I go on a long drive, I don\u2019t usually research the route that thoroughly. I just hope to find some nice roads along the way, but I\u2019m not that determined.<\/p>\n<p>Also, when we go on long drives as a family, preparing for our three kids\u2014diapers, clothes, and things to keep them entertained\u2014takes priority, so I rarely think about the roads.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026Or maybe it\u2019s because I\u2019m a \u201crain woman\u201d that I\u2019ve already resigned myself to the idea that <strong>no matter how good the roads I find, it\u2019ll probably rain or storm anyway<\/strong> (laughs).<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">Touring Is Entertainment<\/h3>\n<p>For his route research, my husband always uses a map called \u201cTouring Mapple,\u201d which is actually designed for motorcyclists.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24870\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/IMG_3438.jpg\" alt=\"Touring Mapple\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When I asked him, \u201c<strong>Why do you deliberately use a map for motorcyclists?<\/strong>\u201d he said:<\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\">Because right now, it\u2019s the only map that shows \u201cgood roads.\u201d Car maps focus on destinations, highlighting scenic spots or restaurants with good lunches. That\u2019s normal.<br \/>\nBut roads leading to popular tourist spots usually have heavy traffic, and they don\u2019t consider how enjoyable the drive itself is, so driving there can be stressful.<br \/>\nI love driving, so I don\u2019t care much about the tourist spots. I want to know <strong>the best roads to enjoy driving<\/strong>, and for that, Touring Mapple is the best resource right now.<br \/>\nThat said, since it\u2019s a motorcycle map, some roads are ridiculously narrow for cars, so you have to be careful.<\/p>\n<p>Listening to him, I realized his route research is like <strong>someone planning a trip to Disneyland, simulating the most efficient and enjoyable way to get around in advance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24871\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/469D9643-C9EF-4D36-8E0B-1839377BA170-1280x720-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Porsche Boxster GTS\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For most people, driving somewhere is just transportation, but for my husband, touring is <strong>entertainment on the same level as going to Disneyland<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>We have also published <a href=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/entry\/category\/touring\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">touring reports that include the routes he has driven<\/a>, so I hope you\u2019ll find those helpful as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"My Husband\u2019s Porsche Touring My husband, who is well-known to love cars and driving, always does one thing before going on a touring trip.
