I made a "Porsche 911 Lineup Quick Guide" - Which one is the best for me?
Published on June 24, 2018
I started researching 911.
After my recent visit to Fuji Speedway, I have become a little more interested in 911s. I think I know about the Panamera, well, to some extent, but I know nothing about the 911.（I mean, usually it's the other way around.)
Therefore.911 model lineup on Porsche Japan official websiteI was looking at... there are so many I have no idea (-_-)
In a nutshell, the lineup is broadly divided as follows
911 Carrera Models
911 Carrera T
911 Targa 4 Models
911 Turbo Models
911 Turbo S Exclusive Series
911 GTS Models
911 GT3 Models
911 GT2 RS
But I'm looking at it.The "Carrera model" has a Cabriolet, the "Turbo model" has a Cabriolet, and the Targa 4GTS appears in the "GTS model" rather than in the "Targa model"....
I don't know why anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ( p p )!!!!
The owners who have made the decision to buy one of these and the owners who have made the decision to buy are truly amazing. I don't know the difference between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, and I don't even know what I don't know in the first place. When smoke was coming out of my head, I asked my husband.
911 Lineup
Please tell me, there are so many 911 models that I don't understand (-_-)"My husband would say.
Yes, 911 has many lineups, and it depends on which axis you divide them, and it is quite complicated.
And. Then, as soon as I thought he got up from his seat and disappeared somewhere, he came back with a blank piece of copy paper in his hand. Then he came back with a blank sheet of copy paper and started writing something. I looked at it and saw that he was making some kind of chart. I see, he is making a 911 classification chart.
I was just asking a quick question..."I thought...15 minutes of waiting.
Completed Porsche 911 Quick Reference Chart
It's done! Koya!" He showed me this picture.
My handwriting is dirty (lol) And I made the following in keynote later.(BTW, I didn't include the Model T.)
"Well, I don't understand it even if you show me this much.I'm sure you've seen the look on my face that I'm not the only one.
This is not necessarily correct, but first I divided the vertical axis between 2- and 4-wheel drive. The horizontal axis is divided intoIs it for daily use, or do you want something sportier or for the track?I thought of it like that.
And my husband. That being said, I looked at the table again.
Oh...
...
Holy...so?
However, some people choose by design, some by price range, and not necessarily all in this division, but, well, this is just an example.
Then I look at the table again.
I see...
...
Holy...so?
By the way, I'm...I want to drive long distances, and I want to drive on mountain passes."I think it's not GT3 or something like that, but I'm having a hard time deciding what would be a good fit.
I see. Well, I think I've been looking at it for a long time, and I think I'm starting to understand it a little better.
What 911 fits me?
By the way, if I were buying a 911.(I still can't afford it though)Which one do you think is better?"I asked.
Well, 4WD is more stable, and turbo might be better, but...In the case of Porsche, 2-wheel drive is stable enough.I'm not sure why. The previous Panamera Edition had 2-wheel drive, but it was stable enough at high speeds, and you didn't usually feel scared, did you?
When you think about it.The rest is a matter of design and taste.The 4WD model has a slightly wider body in the back, but there are also 2WD models with a wider body in the back... The 4WD model looks cool with the back lights connected, but I don't know if all the new models will have them connected... I really don't know which one to go for anymore. I don't know if they are connected or not... I really don't know which one is the best one.
And.
Around me.I want to buy a 911, but I don't know what to buy."in TokyoMaybe we can go full circle and just go plain 911."I thought I understood why some people said that.
Just a hope, but it's like a "personality analysis" on the official Porsche website.This is the 911 for you!"I wish there was a function to find them like that.
Do you prefer ✓ cars with roofs?
✓Do you use the highway often?
Do you want to run on the ✓ circuit?
He asked me about 20 questions and I answered them.Yes!" Here's the 911 that's right for you!"It would be easier if you said.
Well, never.
I would also like to learn more about 911 from this.

Dear Mina
It has been a while.
It is just as it should be.
Is there any change in your family and Mina?
In fact, a 2015 (early 991 model) 991 911 Carrera 4GTS is coming to our house soon! 11 Carrera 4GTS is coming to our house soon!
By the way, I have two machines with my beloved machine that I am reporting to Mr. Mina....
I bought a 971 Panamera because it was difficult to have two cars or something (;-).
We hope to report back to you soon with a review of what happened and after the delivery of the car (;^Ω^)
We insisted on
(1) Rear tail lights are Carrera 4 type (very personal preference, but the beauty of the taillights connected in a straight horizontal line is absolute).
(2) Naturally aspirated engine (I apologize for being an amateur, but I still wanted to enjoy the sound of the engine in NA if I was going to drive a 911)
So I was looking for a certified pre-owned 991 early model Carrera 4, 4S, and GTS, and I fell in love with the design of the GTS.
Eventually, I narrowed my search to the Carrera 4GTS.
It's hard to find a Carrera 4GTS limited edition, and even when they do appear, the body color and options are a bit...
One day, I found a perfect 911 in certified pre-owned condition (I looked at Porsche's website for the first time in a long time...).
(Luckily it was a car that was up that day!) I was lucky enough to be able to see the car on that day!
(It wasn't even close...) I made an immediate decision (p.s.).
As the master commented in his blog, even without a test drive, the Porsche brand (plus the trust of a certified pre-owned car) is enough to make you feel like you're in the driver's seat of a Porsche.
I think it is really great to have a car that you can buy.
However, this may be the result of purchasing a 971 Panamera and also somewhat test driving a 911... ....
The location of the muffler between the early and late 991 GTS models, the presence or absence of daylight, the seatbelt color of the GTS interior package (two-tone for the early model), and the
I'm curious about the old generation-like equipment by going back in time, such as the status of each LED light such as brake lights, etc., and
I think the rear appearance is more refined in the later model, but I decided to stick with NA this time anyway.
We would be happy to report back to you on this point in due course.
I hope you and your husband are doing well at the end of the year.

Wow, that's amazing! Congratulations!
Carrera 4GTS!!!
NA must sound great!
And it's GTS!
I never thought I would see such a development from a Panamera, lol.
It's too much!!!!
I'd love to hear all about your 911 ride, too!
Thank you again for your support this year.
I look forward to working with you next year ^_^.
Dear Mina
Thank you for your help.
It is just as it should be.
Are you feeling better?
Well, the other day a 911 came into our home!
Interior and exterior design, engine sound, cockpit atmosphere...
I am so glad I stuck with the 911 and the NA Carrera 4GTS.
It was as expected, or even better.
As Mina said, the sound of the engine somehow makes my heart beat faster.
It really is a great car.
We will report on this area in due course.
First of all, it was a call for delivery of the car (;^Ω^)
Please take care of yourself, Mina-sama.

Thank you for everything!
Thanks to you, I am feeling much better (80% better, just a little more to go) and I am in the mood to "get in my Porsche and go out!" I'm in the mood to go out in my Porsche.
>Well, the other day a 911 came to my house!
Oh congratulations!!! At last!
After all, NA is the best.
I would love to have you send me pictures again!
And we'd love to have you in the Owner's File again (sorry for being so thick).
Thank you for your continued support!
Thank you for your continued concern.
