It might lack a bit of that living, breathing feeling\u2026<br \/>\nIt\u2019s insanely fast on the track, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/entry\/992-wetmode-inthe-hardrain\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">and even stable in the rain on the circuit<\/a>. It\u2019s stress-free on public roads, handles mountain passes beautifully, and has flawless handling\u2014perfect in every situation. Performance-wise, it\u2019s still outstanding.<br \/>\nBut on the other hand, I feel the sense of it being a \u201cpartner\u201d is a bit weaker compared to other Porsches.<br \/>\nAs for the GT3 Touring, it\u2019s definitely super high-performance, but since it\u2019s a manual, it gives off an aura and intimidation of &#8220;<strong>you can\u2019t just master it easily.<\/strong>&#8221; So in that sense, it feels less like a \u201cpartner\u201d and more like a \u201csteed\u201d that I haven\u2019t fully tamed yet, which gives it a living, breathing vibe.<br \/>\nThat said, every time I drive the 992, I\u2019m amazed and think, \u2018This car is incredible!\u2019 When it comes to practical excellence in any situation, regardless of asset value, it\u2019s got to be the 992.<\/p>\n<p>I see\u2026 Indeed, the 992 is a wonderful car, but maybe it\u2019s so high-performing that there\u2019s little room for human involvement.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22531\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/IMG_1355.jpg\" alt=\"Porsche 911 Cabriolet (992)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My husband continued,  <\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\">With the 964, you can hear the oil trickling and really feel the engine working\u2014it has <strong>a strong living, breathing presence.<\/strong><br \/>\nThe 981 Boxster GTS has an amazing engine sound, and while its handling is a bit softer than the 992, it\u2019s incredibly satisfying when you smoothly flow through the curves of the Royu Driveway.<br \/>\nThe sound from low speeds is wonderful, the suspension is supple, and since mine is a manual, I can control it myself, which makes driving it incredibly joyful.<\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\">Cars are deep. You can\u2019t understand them from just one test drive, and <strong>the feel of a car changes from right after delivery to several months later.<\/strong><br \/>\nAlso, your own senses change over time.<br \/>\nThanks to friends letting me test drive many cars, every time I drive something new, I get to reaffirm &#8220;<strong>what kind of car suits me best.<\/strong>&#8221; Maybe that\u2019s why my feelings toward my own cars keep evolving.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">Which Porsche to Keep?<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/panamera\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">We currently have six cars at home,<\/a> but my husband is thinking about gradually reducing the number. We\u2019ve added many attractive cars over time, but six is just too many to manage properly, so he plans to <strong>narrow it down to a number he can take good care of (regularly driving and maintaining).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That said, deciding what to keep and what to part with isn\u2019t something that can be done immediately\u2014it\u2019s also a matter of timing. With that in mind, my husband says, &#8220;<strong>I\u2019ll definitely keep the 981. Also, we need the Cayenne for the five of us.<\/strong>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Our car life might become a bit simpler from now on. Still, lately my husband seems to want even more cars and spends every day browsing Car Sensor listings\u2026 (laughs)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Feeling of a Porsche Partner A while after our 911 Cabriolet (992) was delivered, my husband said, The 992 is just amazing\u2026!
